read it for yourself.

I remember hearing about this 7-8 years ago and then a Muslim said, it was because she was a slave and the only way he could get her out of slavery was through marriage.

It turns out she was not a slave but a friend's foster-niece.

He got engaged to her at age six, but don't worry, he was a man of principles and waited until age 9 to marry her and begin cohabitation.

IDK... I used to always cite a big difference between Christ and Mohammed was that Christ was a man of peace who healed those who attacked him while Mohammed massacred those who would not convert (pure facts for you).

Now we can add one more to the list:

Christ was celibate and even encouraged profound celibacy amongst his followers.

Mohammed married the 9 year old nieces of his followers (after waiting three years out of decency).
