Christians have problems with Aishas marriage.
the event of Mount Moriah, the birth of Rebekah (Genesis 22) and the death of Sarah (Genesis 23:1-3) happened simultaneously at the same time. This interpretation that these events occurred at the same time is accepted by some of the earliest ancient/medieval scholars, thus showing that Isaac was in his 30s when her mother died.
Isaac was born when Sarah was 90 years old (Genesis 17:15-22). Sarah died at the age of 127, this would make Isaac 37 at the time of her mother’s demise (Genesis 23:1-3). Rebecca was born when Isaac was in his late 30s (Genesis 22). Isaac married Rebecca when he was 40-years-old (Genesis 25:20) This means, that Rebekah was between the ages of 3 to 10 years old when she was married off to Isaac.
But they dont have problems with Rebecca’s marriage with Issac where she was 👉🏼three years old. lol.some Christians (Not all) who never understand the facts and history.
The marriages of 1500 years ago and the marriage of today are not the same.) Rebecca was three years old when Issac married her
————————————–
1. Sarah gave birth to Isaac at the age of ninety (Genesis 17).
2. Isaac was in his thirties when the incident of Mount Moriah occurred with his father, Abraham (Genesis 22).
3. Immediately after Isaac and Abraham’s incident on Mount Moriah, Rebecca is born (Genesis 22).
4. As soon as Rebecca’s birth is mentioned in Genesis 22, few verses down (next chapter), we read that Sarah died at the age of 127 years old (Genesis 23:1-3).
5. At the time of Sarah’s death, Isaac would be have been 37-years-old.
6. Isaac married Rebecca at the age of 40 (Genesis 25:20), this would show from the Bible that Rebecca was only three years old, given that she was only born three years prior, just after the Mount Moriah incident and the death of Sarah Little explanation
so who is smallest Rabacca 3 year or Asha 9 year؟?
Nutshell
Isaac in Genesis got married from Rabbicas when she was three year Genesis 22-23
Rebecca
Before Christian missionary converted the Nigerians. In fact before the Christian reformation which happened during the mid 15th century, Jewish rabbis confirmed Rebecaa was 3 years old when she married Issac.
———————-
Rabbi Tobiah Ben Eliezer (1050 – 1108 AD) also confirms that she was 3-years-old when she was married to Isaac:
“Isaac was thirty-seven-years old at his binding… When Abraham returned from Mount Moriah, at that very moment Sarah died, and Isaac was then thirty-seven; and at that very time Abraham was told of Rebekah’s birth; THUS WE FIND THAT REBECCA WAS THREE YEARS OLD WHEN SHE MARRIED ISAAC.”
(Pesikta Zutrata (Lekah Tov), Gen. 24., Midrashic commentary on the Pentateuch, by Rabbi Tobiah Ben Eliezer)

Rabecca the 3 year old bride ( from 13th century commentary)
Rashi’s calculation goes as follows: Rivkah was married at 3 years, and was 23 years old when she gave birth to Esau and Yaakov. Yaakov was 63 years old when he fled to Padan Aram as Rashi explains at the end of this portion. He then spent 14 years in the academy headed by Ever, great grandson of Noach. After that he worked 20 years for his uncle Lavan. He spent 2 years on his return journey home during which time he was informed by Rivkah’s nursemaid that his mother had died, as Rashi explains at the end of parshat Vayishlach, in connection with the burial of that nursemaid called Devorah, and the naming of an oak tree after her. According to this calculation, Rivkah could not have lived to an age older than 123 years.

Can you reject your bible before i reply you that islam does not allow child marriage neither prophet muhammad pbuh marry a child…….
How old was Moses when he was commanded in Numbers 31:17-18 to take infant (Taph) girls and devour (Lamech) them? Was he not around 120 years old?
How old was King David in 1 kings 1: 1-4 when he was given 10 year old abhishag to sleep with to keep him warm? Was he not 70 years old?
How old was Isaac in Genesis 25:20 when he married Rebecca a little girl (Naarah)? Was she not around 10 years old, which is confirmed in the Book of Jasher 24:40?
How old was Esther in Esther 2:4-7 when she (Naarah) married xerxes? Was she not 10 years old?
How old was Dinah in Genesis 34:1-2 when she (Naarah) was raped by Shachem and then married him with the permission of her father Jacob? Was she not 8 years old, which is also confirmed by Jewish rabbis?
How old was Ruth in Ruth 4:12-13 when she (Naarah) married Boaz? Was she not 10 years old?
In fact, what is the age consent for marriage in the Bible? Why do we find passages such as Song or Solomon 8:8, 1 Corinthians 7:36, Deuteronomy 22:28-29 all condoning child marriage? Nowhere does the Bible condemn child marriage nor give due rights to females, and you have the audacity to ask us how old was our Prophet Pbuh when he married his wife. You Muslim haters aught to be ashamed of yourself. First go fix your Bible issues before you come ask us questions.
Does not the Jewish Oral Law (Talmud) state, a Jew can marry a 3 year old girl (Sanhedrin 55b, Yebamoth 60b, Kethuboth 11b, Sanhedrin 69a 69b, Yebamoth 12b, Yobamoth 57b 58a) why did not your loving Saviour condemn the Jews for such rulings? Was he not aware of their actions or did he turn a blind eye?
if you want to get into the discussion on the meaning of the above Hebrew words, then I’m happy to take you up on that.
We have a little sister, and her breasts are not yet grown. What shall we do for our sister on the day she is spoken for? (Songs of Solomon 8:8)
Rava infers from this baraita that it is a girl three years and one day old who is disqualified via intercourse, and consequently she is also disqualified via the wedding canopy. However, a girl who is less than three years and one day old, who is not disqualified via intercourse, is also not disqualified via the wedding canopy. The Gemara concludes: Indeed, learn from this that it is so. (Talmud Yevamot Daf 57b)
————-the word “Naarah נַ֗עַר is used for girl. Now if “Naarah” did not mean child, why then did the rabbi use it when addressing a 3 year old? Why did they not use the word Yaldah (ילדה), instead Naarah was used. This very word Naarah was used for Rebecca.
It’s clear child marriage was common during ancient times period!
We have a little sister, and her breasts are not yet grown. What shall we do for our sister on the day she is spoken for? (Songs of Solomon 8:8)
To all dirty hearts and dirty thinkers: its not padophilia but bible confirm that After puberty a girl in the sight of God-Allah becomes able to marry-adult and able to bear a child and can marry on her will:
Creator knows best who Created male and female
Bible Old testament says:”Marrying off one’s daughter as soon after she reaches Puberty as possible, even to one’s Slave. (From the Talmud, Pesachim 113a)”
And similar message is in Quran: Marry with girl only when she reach after age of puberty (marriage)-Quran 4:6
So number of years of age doesn’t matter. The Noble Quran is crystal clear about it. Girls who have not become “fatayat” (young ladies) and ready to be “wed” (4:25) and have not “reached the age of marriage” (4:6) to enable them to take on life are not permitted to get married. Other Noble Verses that clearly prohibit for infants and babies and little boys and girls to get married are: 22:5, 40:67, 6:152, 17:34, 46:15, 4:6, 4:25, 24:59, 12:22, 28:14.”
The point from the Noble Verses is that Allah Almighty made it CRYSTAL CLEAR that babies (الاطفال) are different from teenagers who reach their (حلم) puberty. And girl should only marry after reaching of the “age of marriage” حتى اذا بلغوا النكاح.
Some girls blessedly achieve early age of puberty (marriage) Example
👨👨👧The minimum age for marriage in the US-State (Christian country) of Delaware in year 1880 was
7. 👨👨👧I can provide you also evidence of A picture and news paper article about a 9-year old girl from Thailand gave birth👨👨👧A 12-year old Christian girl getting married in Romania👨👨👧Child brides as young as 8 (eight) were common among the Byzantine emperors and nobility!(you need evidence).
The Catholic Encyclopaedia goes on to conclude “…retained the belief that St. Joseph was an old man at the time of marriage with the Mother of God(Marry).” If Christians do not find any difficulty in accepting “Mother of God” (according to Catholic Encyclopaedia), who was 12-14, marrying a 90 year old man then why do they raise objection towards the marriage of Aisha (RA) to the Prophet?
