Muslims 'outraged' by billboard that insults prophet Mohammed

Being a Muslim myself, there is indeed truth to this. However one must consider the barbaric days and refer to the practices during that period. Of course the Billboard was made to serve an agenda, which the same can be done for anything.

Is it fair to judge a person by standards which were unknown to him? That were not theirs ? Not in their time and their place? Isn't that akin to being judged by what our ancestors did or by what others of our race did even though they are unrelated to us? Now, if someone wants to live by those cultural standards or practice those cultural mores in our time and our place, we may judge them our my cultural standards and mores. Remember: When in Rome... ?

The allegation that Muhammad married a 6 year old child appears to be more urban legend than fact. Specifically, critics allege Muhammad, in his 50's, was betrothed to Aisha who was just six years old and only nine when the marriage was consummated. This analysis was based wihin a passage in the Qur'an attributed to Aisha herself (Sahih Bukhari volume 5, book 58, number 234). Accordingly, many Muslims believe this to be a historically accurate account. Furthermore, many Muslims who accept this account also argue that since the Qur'an states that marriage is void unless entered into by consenting adults, Aisha must have entered puberty early. To add to the confusion, modern Muslim researchers calculated Aisha's age at thirteen and perhaps between seventeen and nineteen at the time of her marriage based on more detailed information available about her sister Asma. Nonetheless, due to the unreliability of birth records in 7th Century Arabia, it is impossible to know with any certainty how old Aisha was.
