Трагедията на Аиша
|
Въведение
Не е тайна, че сексуалната злоупотреба с деца води до сериозни последствия върху жертвите ѝ, а както сред мюсюлманите, така и сред не-мюсюлманите, вече не е никаква тайна, че Коранът изрично оправдава педофилията. Разбира се, за да могат мюсюлманите най-накрая да признаят вредните ефекти от злоупотребата с деца, ние сме длъжни да покажем тези ефекти чрез използването на автентичните ислямски източници. Ето защо смятаме Аиша, третата и „любима“ съпруга на Мухаммад, за съвършен модел при оценка на педофилията и нейните последици върху жертвите ѝ.
В исляма Аиша бинт Абу Бакр се смята за една от „Майките на вярващите“. Ислямските източници я хвалят като велик учен, който е разказал голям брой хадиси. В това твърдение има някаква истина, защото с над 2000-те разкази, приписвани на нейно име, Аиша е на второ място при разказването на хадисите, отстъпвайки единствено на Абу Хурайра. Въпреки това способността за разказване на случки от живота на Мухаммад не изисква висока ерудираност, а просто добра памет: нещо, което, както ще видим малко по-долу, тя определено е притежавала. За разлика от това, налице са и твърде много неща от живота на Аиша, детето-булка на Мухаммад, които съвременните мюсюлмани биха предпочели да забравят.
Обратно на нейните твърдения, тя никога не е била привлекателен образ в живота. Вероятно тя щеше да се превърне във фигура за подражание, ако не бяха плътските потребности на един перверзен стар мъж, който е разрушил невинния ѝ живот. Ние сме изгубили повечето от съпругите на Мухаммад някъде в историята, но Аиша се отличава в това отношение. Нейният живот е добре известен в ислямското учение заради участието ѝ в знаменитата „Битка на камилата“ и разрухата, която това е причинило сред мюсюлманската умма (общност).
Животът на Аиша с Мухаммад
Поведението на Аиша в харема на Мухаммад
Дали тя е била добра съпруга в харема на Мухаммад? Като имаме предвид, че тя определено е била най-непокорната сред съпругите му, отговорът е едно категорично „не“. Ислямските източници свидетелстват, че Аиша си е останала едно незряло дете в харема на Мухаммад.
Омар, вторият халиф на исляма, свидетелства за лошите обноски на „съвършената Майка на вярващите“ в един сахих(достоверен) хадис, като предупреждава дъщеря си да не се подвежда по нея.
Ислямските източници също така ни казват, че е имало много вражди сред харема на Мухаммад. Съпругите са били разделени на две групи, като Аиша е предвождала едната.
Била ли е Аиша щастлива от нагона на Мухаммад да колекционира съпруги? Отново „не“, не е била. Когато е разбрала намеренията на Мухаммад да си направи още едно допълнение в харема в лицето на Зайнаб бин Джаш, негова братовчедка[1] по бащина линия и съпруга на доведения му син, Аиша е избухнала. Този страховит изблик дори е потвърден от намесата на алтер-егото на Мухаммад, Аллах, със свещени стихове:
The truth is, she was never happy with Muhammad, and their marriage was far from being a match made in heaven. We have Sahih sources which confirm this. In one Bukhari hadith, she recalls how she "disliked to face him."
She once went so far as to plot against Muhammad, and by extension, this can be construed as a plot against Islam itself.
So, even during Muhammad's lifetime Aisha was subversive towards Islam and she, along with Hafsa, rose up against him. Once again, Allah, the alter-ego of Muhammad, had to intervene with verses to fix the problem. We find these verses in the Qur'anic chapter At-Tahrim.[2]
Aisha's Attitude Towards Muhammad
So far we have looked at Islamic sources and how they reflect on Aisha but, if we take a careful look at the ahadith that Aisha narrated, the nature and content of many of them are derogatory towards Islam, and very often she is found mocking and belittling her husband. This is not merely propaganda but a fact which anyone with an impartial outlook can confirm for themselves.
Here are just a few examples:
Aisha said Muhammad was affected with magic, and black magic is considered to be the devil’s doing, thereby she is in fact proclaiming he was under the influence of the devil. Muhammad had lost all sense of reality and acted quite bizarrely. This has been recorded in many places. In Sahih Bukhari alone, it appears six times.[3][4][5][6][7][8] Muhammad, the final Messenger of Allah, being controlled by the devil. This, from the lips of the Mother of Believers.
She also created the impression of a very forgetful and clumsy Muhammad.
She disclosed things which Muhammad had told her in private.
And she betrayed Muhammad’s private affairs.
Negative Views of Aisha Among the Ummah
When all is said and done, it is very hard to believe that Aisha was in fact a true Muslim. There is little wonder that most Shi'ites view her with contempt. They are treating her memory in accordance to her merits in Islam.
Yes, it may come as a surprise to many but 1/10th of the world's Muslim population considers Aisha as not being a true Muslim, not in the absolute sense of the word.
The Shi'ite cleric, Shaykh Yasser Al-Habib, has also accused Aisha, along with Hafsa, of being responsible for the poisoning and death of Muhammad.[9]
Aisha's Hatred of Ali
Ali, Muhammad's son-in-law, once suggested for him to divorce Aisha when she had become involved in a scandalous affair with a man named Safwan; and there is evidence in Islam’s authentic sources which affirm that Aisha kept hold of her vengeful hatred towards Ali for the rest of her life. So much so, she could barely bring herself to mention him by name.
Furthermore, the troubled state-of-mind of this young woman led to the first civil war in Islamic history caused by a woman. She led an army against Ali, the fourth elected Caliph of the Muslims. Her actions ultimately caused the death of twenty thousand Muslims in the war now known in history as the “Battle of the Camel”.
Conclusion
What could have possibly driven her to such extreme measures without ever considering the outcome of her actions? The answer is simple: she was metaphorically attempting to kill two birds with one stone.
Aisha's actions were very much reflective of her disturbed psychological make-up. She was a physically[10][11][12][13] and sexually abused female, deprived from the innocent pleasures of childhood and adjoined to Muhammad’s harem while she was still a playful little girl.
She could never rid herself of this affliction, and the physical and psychological pain manifested itself through hatred. And the outlet for this hate? In a delirious state, she raised up arms against Ali and her own brethren (Muslims), and by doing so she was rebelling against her deceased husband's wishes, "Do not revert to disbelief after me by striking the necks of one another."
Aisha's forces were ultimately defeated, yet amidst all of these mishaps, this deranged woman preserved and carried her animosity towards Ali throughout her life. In Tabari vol. 7:224 we even see her rejoicing at the news of Ali’s death.
The life of Aisha bint Abu Bakr truly was a seventh century tragedy.
