The prophet Muhammad's reasons for marriage are love, compassion, political. It was not uncommon at that time for Ayesha to get married at such an age.
At the Battle of the Trench, Muhammad agreed that an arbitrator be chosen among the vanquished tribes.
The arbitrator chose death for the whole Qurayza tribe.
Slavery was accepted during those times. Muhammad knew the inequality between the slaves and their masters. In Islam, slaves are treated with kindness and the masters are urged to free their slaves. But lets get this clear ha, Islam does not advocate one to enslave another.
