Marriage Saudi Arabia-Style: - The “kings” and “princes” of sand and oil who rule Saudi Arabia may have signed on to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1997, but the daughters of their subjects—and no doubt some of their own, as well—still live under the sick tyranny of shariah-interpreting that endorses the predations of pedophiles upon them, and insists, in a Whoopi Goldbergian kind of inversion, that to deprive little girls of conjugation with men old enough to be their grandfathers is to treat them “unfairly.”
How cold the comfort, in the circumstances, that the “jurists” upholding this appalling penalty against defenseless victims invoke the marriage of their Prophet to a six-year-old girl—and by the way, a six-year-old, for those who’ve never met any, is someone who’s just begun to lose her baby teeth—to justify it.
But how much more dreadful must it be for these children to realize that those who should by nature be their refuge from the harsh ugly world, their fathers, are the brokers of their misery, selling them to old men for . . . what? To pay off debts? To pare down the number of mouths to feed?
The Saudi daily 'Okaz reported on August 25, 2009 that the father of a 10-year-old girl had removed her from her aunt's home, where she had been hiding for 10 days, and brought her back to her husband, who, according to the girl's relatives, is 80 years old. In an 'Okaz interview, the husband stated that he was not yet 80, accused the girl's aunt of interfering in his private life, and claimed that according to the shari'a his marriage is legal as long as the girl's father consents to it. He explained that the girl's father had first offered him his older daughter, but when the latter refused, the father had suggested the younger one, and he had agreed, since when girl was shown to him, he couldn't see anything to prevent their getting married.
Iraqi shariah scholar Abd Al-Hamid Al-’Ubeidi gives us the expert’s view: "In some Islamic countries, the age of maturity can be 8 or 10 years.
