	In this narration, the word ''"~~udkhilath~~"'' was translated by Dr. Mushin Khan to mean ''"consummated his marriage."''		In this narration, the word ''"udkhilat"'' was translated by Dr. Mushin Khan to mean ''"consummated his marriage."''

	===Interpretations of "Consummate"===		===Interpretations of "Consummate"===

	~~Some apologists~~ claim that Muhammad ''"~~zawaj~~'ed"'' Aisha when she was six, and ''"nikah'ed"'' her when she was 9 years old. <ref>[http://www.islamic-awareness.org/Polemics/aishah.html Muslim Answers - 'The young age of Aishah' by Abd ar-Rahmân Robert Squires]</ref> They claim that ''"zawaj"'' means ''"betrothal"'' and ''"[[nikah]]"'' means ''"marriage."'' After stating this, they claim that Dr. Mushin Khan's translation is "poor" because he has (allegedly) added "consummation of" to the meaning of 'nikah', instead of simply rendering it as "marriage". Thereby, they claim that Dr. Khan has added a sexual connotation to the narration in question which was not intended.		An apologetic claim is that Muhammad ''"zawwaj'ed"'' Aisha when she was six, and ''"nikah'ed"'' her when she was 9 years old. <ref>[http://www.islamic-awareness.org/Polemics/aishah.html Muslim Answers - 'The young age of Aishah' by Abd ar-Rahmân Robert Squires]</ref> They claim that ''"zawaj"'' means ''"betrothal"'' and ''"[[nikah]]"'' means ''"marriage."''

Thereby, they claim that Dr. Khan has added a sexual connotation to the narration in question which was not intended.

	Others accept Dr. Khan's translation, but argue as to the meaning of "consummate" as they too, disagree with the implied sexual connotation. The usual reasoning given for this interpretation of the ahadith in question, is that 'consummation' could be interpreted as 'completion' of the marriage or wedding ceremony - as in completion of a business transaction. However this is not correct, as the word ~~'dakhala~~' does not simply mean 'consummate' in English, but it actually translates as the English phrase 'consummate the marriage.'

However this is not correct, as the word adkhala' does not simply mean 'consummate' in English, but it actually translates as the English phrase 'consummate the marriage.'

	Essentially what they are doing when they attack the meaning of 'consummate' is that they are addressing the English word but not the Arabic (dakhala). While 'consummate' can sometimes mean 'completion' (as in a business transaction), the Arabic word 'dakhala' carries no such meaning or connotation.

	Therefore we see that the eminent scholars of Islam translate the verb 'dakhaltum' (the root word is dakhala) to mean 'sexual intercourse', because the literal meaning is to "enter", "insert into", "penetrate", or "pierce" a woman. It does not mean "enter a marriage" - it means "enter" the woman.

	The Arabic word ''"bana"'' means to ''"build"'' or ''"construct."'' However, if we add ''"biha"'' which means 'with her' (biha being a feminine verb in Arabic), then the meaning is entirely different. Literally, ''"bana biha"'' means ''"build with her."''

	If we say in Arabic: 'Muhammad bana bi Aisha', the meaning is: 'Muhammad had intercourse with Aisha.' This is the only possibly Arabic understanding of the phrase.

	==~~Conclusion~~==		==Summary==

	A reading of the relevant Bukhari ahadith make it clear that Muhammad had sexual intercourse with Aisha when she was nine years of age. The terms used are: ''"udkhilath"'' and ''"bana biha"'', which can only mean ''"sexual intercourse"'' in the context of the ahadith.
