Child marriage and Islam go inseparably as it is the foundation of Islam. Anyone can see in the internet (google) the number of wives Muhammad had during his lifetime and also can see their ages. You can see, he married a 6 year old girl (Miriam) and Muhammad waited for three years to use her sexually. We don't wonder when we see the 40 year old husband and 9 year old wife. It is only possible in Islam. Previously in Hinduism also it was a culture but in course of time, they changed. In Hinduism, there was a practice of "plate marriage" which means when the bride and groom were small children, the parents liked to have them marriage but they had to sit on the plate and marry.

In Islam, no real morality or human values are there. They have always despised the Western concept of civilization. Muslims especially in South Asia have always hated and criticized Western civilization and even democracy and human rights concept. They always see in a negative view the western culture and looked at the women in a degrading manner.

In this case of child marriage by IS is not a new thing. The west especially all those countries that are accepting and sheltering the Muslims from Syria, Afghanistan or from any Muslims majority countries should be careful in accepting the refugees as many ISIS members are entering those countries in disguise. Today you today you feel compassion for the refugees but accepting these so-called refugees you are causing dangers for your whole country and citizens. In short time they will show their true nature and then you will be minority and helpless before the "today's refugees" whom you have shown compassion and mercy and love.
