Balaayo idin ku dhacday....damn Arabs....anything goes with them.

How is this Islamic Shariah, or is it tribal culture? Will the Salafi Somali Imaams educated in Saudi Arabia consider Somalis to adopt the Saudi model of Sariah-Laws?

Thats so cute :)

Whats wrong with that, is halal..

Amr ibn A'ls the companion of the prophet (pbuh) was married at age 10.. Him and his son Abdullahi ibn Amr there was only 11 years difference..

Aisha married at 9... If the person is mature enough than there is nothing wrong with it if its accepted in the society they live in..

You people are just looking for excuses to slander muslims..

If an arab could find a way to legetimize/halaal-ize marrying his mother/father/dog/cat/goat......he/she would.

"am ready for this marriage. It will help me study better"....lol

a 11 year old is saying that...manshallah may they live a life of bliss

[Icekristella]

I feel sorry for the girl.
But then again, they can watch cartoons together, go to school together and share their toys. Bliss!

The principle of his school who knows the kid as an immature student says the marriage is "inappropriate. Is he slandering Muslims and his own Saudis? Don't compare Muslims in a different era with today's immature kids. We are all Muslims and have opinions in matters like this.

[Dhiig_Waraabe]

you do know this is maybe not a symbolic marriage...

those two kids may have to " * _ * ......

thats fukked up

[BABYGIRL123]

they should wait until they reach 17 or older.

American sufi say you dont agree with them but dont try to degrade these people because in sharia point of view you have no proofs to make their actions xaram..

I myself dont think its the wisest of decision but i cant tell them their actions goes against islam..

I wouldnt want my son or daughters to get married that young but if another muslim does it all the best to them..

What was halal at the time of the prophet (pbuh) is halal today...

Marriage in Islam is regulated by certain rules, namely, children must reach puberty and maturity so that they can get married.

Nah, not really interested viewing that film, sadly many Muslims now do make their culture go hand in hand with Islam especially Sufis.

This might have an interest to you guys.

Have you ever asked yourself, what is a Sufi and What is Sufism? Pay attention for the answer!

Sufi: a follower of Sufism

Sufism: a sect that has introduced many innovated practices and beliefs into the religion of Islam while claiming to be mystical


Sufism was not known in the time of the Prophet (may Allah raise his rank and grant him peace) or his Companions, nor was it well known in the first three generations after them. It first appeared in Basrah in Iraq, where some people went to extremes in worship and in avoiding the worldly life, something which is admonished in the Quran:

"The Monasticism which they invented for themselves; We did not prescribe it for them."

Sufis belong to the Illumist school of philosophy which holds that knowledge and awareness is brought about in the soul by spiritual exercises. Orthodox Islam holds that one can achieve true knowledge and awareness through the acts of worship that exist in the Quran and Sunnah.

Sufis believe that their teachers are also a source for legislation in worship, as they will order them to carry out acts of worship that have no basis in either the Quran or the Sunnah. The extremists from amongst them often claim that Allah dwells within His creation (i.e. in people's hearts, internal organs etc.). Consequently, they ascribe to their Sufi teachers attributes and powers which only belong to Allah, such as the knowledge of the unseen.

They often claim that the texts of the Quran and the Sunnah have an outer, apparent meaning, and as well, an inner, hidden meaning. They hold that the outer, apparent meaning is known to those who practice orthodox Islam, while the inner and hidden meanings of the Quran and Sunnah are known only to their teacher and order. These teachers will often claim that since they have advanced to the inner and hidden meaning of Islam, they no longer need to pray or fast, something that not even the Prophets were excused from.
