Our ancestors were not working with "God's" direction. Muhammad was. So you'd expect him to know what was right and what was wrong, wouldn't you?

What makes you think that current western morals are right, and older/non-western morals are not?
Your reasoning assumes that it is objectively bad to marry and have sex with minors. However, using an argument which relies on that assumption against those who oppose that very assumption doesn't work.
