The age of Aisha when she got married to the Prophet Mohammed. Some Islamic scholars from the Ottoman Empire, they claimed that her age was 17 when she got married. But even if she was 9 years old, I was shocked when I learned that \"9\" is still an appropriate age for marriage in Saudi Arabia. I have asked many people living there and they told me that because of the extremely hot weather, girls start having their periods at a very early age. Therefore, marriages at the age of 8,9 or 10 are very normal.
