What a convoluted argument to help Islam. Exposes the double standards which existed in Islam since it was created. Give me Wikipedia anytime. At least I can correct fallacies in it.
Cant reply attack THE logic...Typical Indian mentality!
@gambit below are some people who managed to do great things in their teens...
Well he picked an incident from long ago so yes the argument was set back and as far as Islam has said is for marriage to be accepted those involved need to have a sane mind , reach puberty and their consent....
If back then:
Being the king, Michael Asen II took his father’s place at the head of the military and, though he did very little actual leading, was on the battlefield on several occasions in full battle armament made especially for the young boy (
at 7, born in 1270).
Gregorio was born in
1875, the fifth of six children. His military career began immediately following college
at the age of 20 with the start of the Philippine Revolution. A year later, now a captain at the
age of only 21, he proposed an attack on a Spanish garrison at Paombong that was an overwhelming victory, leading to his promotion to Lieutenant Colonel. In June of 1898, he accepted the surrender of the Spanish in the town of Bulacan and was promoted to general at
only 23 years old.
he was a leading member of a special police force during the late shogunate period in Japan. Okita was a samurai who began training in swordsmanship around the
age of nine. When he was
only 12, he was
defeating kenjutsu (swordsmanship) teachers in rival schools and attained the Menkyo Kaiden scroll labeling him as a
master of his style at age 18. He was the head teacher at a dojo for the next year before becoming a founding member of the Shinsengumi, becoming their
first unit captain at the age of 19. He is considered one of only 13 Kensei, or “sword saints”, and is one of the greatest swordsmen in the history of Japan.
In
1587, at the
age of 24, Henry IV defeated a royalist army at the Battle of Coutras, which would lead to his ultimate rise to the throne. He was
crowned king of France in 1589 and was adored by the people, known as a man of kindness, compassion, and good humor.
Wladyslaw is another king who succeeded to the throne at a very young age, being only 10 years old. At the age of 17, when the kingship in the neighboring Kingdom of Hungary was being debated, Waldyslaw led armies with several other nations under the blessing of Pope Eugene IV against Hungary’s regent Elizabeth of Luxembourg. Following her defeat,
he accepted the crown of the Kingdom of Hungary at the age of 19.
Augustus (1st Emperor of Roman Empire) was born in 63 B.C. He was only
18 years old when news of Julius Caesar’s assassination reached him. Ignoring counsel to seek refuge with troops in Macedonia, he returned to Italia and learned Caesar had left him two-thirds of his estate and, having no living legitimate children, had named him both his son and
heir.
Joan has to be so high on this list because she was a teenage girl leading armies in a time when females simply did not fight on the battlefield.
At 16, she gained the audience of the royal French court and made a remarkable prediction about a military reversal that would occur near Orleans. Impressed, King Charles VII granted her request to travel with the army and dress as a
knight.
Alexander was born in 356 B.C. as the son of the Macedonian king, Philip II. When he was
16, he returned to Macedon to
rule as regent while his father waged war against Byzantium.
The third emperor of China’s Qing Dynasty, 5-year-old Fulin (eventually known as the Shunzhi Emperor) rose to power in 1643 following the death of his father. Because he was so young, for the next several years China was ruled under the regency of his uncle, Dorgon. After Dorgon’s death in 1650,
12-year-old Shunzhi took the reigns of the empire.
Wary of power grabs from his political enemies, he soon fostered a precarious alliance with influential court eunuchs and made efforts to fight corruption and consolidate the empire under Qing rule. - So a 12 yr old can handle himself!
Mary Stuart—more famously known as Mary, queen of Scots—
ruled as queen of two separate nations before she was 18 years old.
King Baldwin IV not only saved Jerusalem from capture at the age of 16, but he did it while suffering from a debilitating disease.
Philip Streich, 17
Platteville, Wisconson
Nano Entrepeneur
Streich custom-built a spectrometer to probe the chemical characteristics of the nanotubes.
Daniel Burd, 17
Waterloo, Ontario
Using supplies and equipment acquired mostly through eBay, Burd collected soil samples, isolated candidate microbes, and grew each in a culture. Then he quantified each organism’s ability to degrade plastic by exposing it to plastic strips.
Now you have 2 choices: Accept truth as it is - that teens back then and even now (if focused) can actually do something....And also that back then teenagers could make GREAT choices not like SOME today at 40 still cant decide if they need to get married or a sex change operation!
