The truth, as told by traditional sources and most widely accepted, is that Muhammad married Aisha when she was either 6 or 7 (not 9). Aisha lived with her parents until she was 9, when Muhammad consummated their relationship.
In regards to Aisha age of marriage, I believe that the following videos should be considered because as I stated before, I'm not sure about her age but I believe that she was 17 or over when she got married and that the evidence of the vidoes should not be discarded.

If I said that she was 9 years old in my previous comments then I have probably made a mistake because I didn't do my research properly.
