Muslim fucks nine year old - legally

Interviewer: "Are you for or against sex before marriage?"

Rami 'Aleiq: "I'm for it."

Interviewer: "But all religions forbid this."

Rami 'Aleiq: "I think that the way this issue is viewed is subject to social development, and religions need to be aware of social developments."

"We Would Have Sex With Prostitutes For 500 Syrian Lira per Half Hour... In Islam... A Girl Is Mature from the Age of Nine... I Was a Child, and So Was She... I Was Not Allowed to Touch Her" Without Contracting a Pleasure-Marriage

Interviewer: "[In your book,] you write: 'When I went on trips, I used to go secretly with several young friends to the Al-Marja neighborhood in Damascus. We would go to a hotel in order to have sex with prostitutes for 500 Syrian liras per half hour.' To justify this, you write: 'None of us would make physical contact with the girl he chose before signing a formal pleasure-marriage contract with her.' Isn't marriage meant to be out of pure intentions? Weren't you conning God this way?"

Rami 'Aleiq: "You're right. Pleasure-marriage means conning God, as well as ourselves. I am against this way of relating to sex and to women.

"This is something that still goes on. It is wrong."

Interviewer: "Back then you were an observant Shiite Muslim from Hizbullah, weren't you?"

Rami ‘Aleiq nods.

Interviewer: "How did you ever dare to sign a pleasure-marriage contract with a nine-year-old girl?"

Rami 'Aleiq: "In our culture, in order to be able to touch a girl or a woman, there must be a contract of pleasure-marriage."

Interviewer: "We are talking about a nine-year-old girl..."

Rami 'Aleiq: "Sure. In Islam, and this is what we were taught, a girl is mature from the age of nine. This is true with regard to Sunnis as well as Shiites. You are focusing on Shia Islam, because I am a Shiite, but according to religious jurisprudence, a girl is mature at the age of nine. This is where we got this idea. I was a child, and so was she, so I was not allowed to touch her, if I didn't form with her the kind of relation that permitted this."
