The maker asks whether Islam allows child marriage. He looks at what the Quran says on the issue, what scholars say, and what rules Sharia law sets on age for marriage and for sexual relations.
He bases his argument on hadith collections, classical commentaries (tafsir) on the Quran, especially on verse 65:4, and fatwa websites. He notes that many of these sources are available only in Arabic.
