"Also (forbidden are) women already married, except those whom your right hands possess. Thus has Allah ordained for you. All others are lawful, provided you seek them from your property, desiring chastity, not fornication. So with those among them whom you have enjoyed, give them their required due, but if you agree mutually after the requirement (has been determined), there is no sin on you. Surely, Allah is Ever All-Knowing, All-Wise." - Quran 4:24 (read more)

We replied, "This white man reclining on his arm." They then addressed him" - Sahih Bukhari 1:3:63 (read more)

"Everything that is not forbidden is permitted. [The proposed law in Yemen that would set the minimum marriage age at 17] is a Western plot aimed at Westernizing our culture.
