Omg I can’t believe someone would justify it with “its sunah”
usually the ones around me say “oh well this was a long time ago things are different”... but are they tho?

Some of us are to expected to believe God, the creator of the universe, conceived a child with a 14 year old Mary. What’s a half-century age difference compared to THAT?! That without even exploring the notion that Mary was impregnated by her heavenly FATHER. Yikes!

What does "it's Sunnah" imply?

Sunnah is basically the way of the prophet, so when you follow what he did, you are following Sunnah.
