Who defines it be inappropriate?his beloved wife Ayesha or people who come 1400 years after this knowing nothing about how they loved and lived. How many 50 and (even 70 ) heroes,ceberities,politicians,sportspersons we idolize and venerate their beauty even today ?
I am not comparing the characteristics of these heroes with Prophet muhammed,but this perception of old aged man is a flawed one. Prophet Muhammed lived 1400 years ago and was a real hero and thats why Ayesha was perfectly happy and at times even very envious of Prophet muhammeds then deceased wife khadeja
