One charge that is often leveled at Islam, ie. men in Islam, is that they love child marriages (of girls). They love forcibly marrying their women very early in order to deprive them of freedom and independence. Ideal marriage in Islam is a girl in early teens married to a middle aged pervert. (With obvious conclusion that Muslim men should be deported back to where they came from and their countries bombed to Stone Age.)

​

So, if this is so, then what do you expect will be average age at marriage for women in countries such as Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Algeria, Morocco, Iran? 18? 13? 6?

​

Here is the actual data. Average age at marriage for women in some Islamic countries, with years when data was obtained in brackets:

​

Algeria - 30 (2006)

Morocco - 27 (2014)

Tunisia - 29 (2010)

Libya - 30 (2010)

Egypt - 25

Kuwait - 27

Brunei - 27

Iran - 24 (2010)

Turkey - 25

Bahrain - 27 (2010)

Kazakhstan - 24 (2011)

Lebanon - 28 (2007)

Malaysia - 26 (2017)

Qatar - 25

Saudi Arabia - 25 (2010)

Emirates - 26

Jordan - 25 (2010)

Syria - 25 (2000)

​

I'm too lazy to type it all. You got the message by now. Women in Islamic countries are getting married (on average) mostly in late twenties.

​

Compare with historical age at marriage in US. In 1960s, women in USA were getting married at 20. Only in 2000 did the average age at marriage reach 25 years.

​

What can we conclude here?

1)Islamic countries don't differ much from USA.

2)Child marriages are hardly the norm.

3)Isn't it a bit hard to forcibly marry a woman at the age of 29 as in Tunisia, or even at the age of 27 as in Bahrain?
