It's absolutely sickening but this is sadly derived from what many Muslims believe about Muhammad marrying his wife Aisha when she was 9. However, this isn't correct. From the hadith and tafsir he actually married her when she was 6 (he was in his 50s) and had sex with her for the first time (raped) when she was 9. It's generally believed that the damage caused by an adult penis penetrating a child's body is why Aisha was never able to conceive in her whole life.

The age of Aisha at the time of her marriage to the Prophet is also not mentioned in the Quran.

Hadith literature, supporting this comes from Sunni sources. However, these accounts are not universally accepted, and other scholars question their reliability.

Within Islam there are multiple branches and schools of thought. These include Sunnis, Shias, Ibadis, and the Nation of Islam amongst them. Each branch has its own unique perspective on theology, jurisprudence, and historical interpretation.

Yet if you are a Shia muslim. They do not believe that she was 6 or 9 and propose that she was older at the time of her marriage.
