Unless I'm mistaken, the Qu'ran never mentions the age of Muhammad's youngest wife, although there are hadiths that tell of his marrying a six year old and consummating the marriage when she was nine. A Muslim who has studied the hadiths would be in a better position than I to tell you what these hadiths actually say.
That having been said, it's not always wise to judge people who lived 14 centuries ago by modern Western norms.
