Why Did Allah Allow More Wives for his prophet than for the Ummah by basilico(op): 5:53pm On Jan 08, 2015
All Islamic early writings acknowledge that prophet Muhammad had at least 11 wives at one point besides s,,ex slaves or rather harem. Why did Allah command the ummah to marry a maximum of four wives while the prophet was allowed more?
I know apologists will say that the extra wives were taken in to create unity and so on...But the prophet killed men and married their wives. Safiyyah for instance..she was Kinana wife whom the prophet ordered beheaded and married his wife.
Why Allah revealed that the prophet should have more wives than the ummah?

The same allah commanded Muhammad to snatch the wife of his adopted son, Zaid. Allah is fond of creating and encouraging immorality.

A question was Asked, you don't leave answering the question but jumping into some other issue. U just committed a Falacy known as, Argumentum ad Hominem. U r diverting attention from the fact. Did Solomon marry those women with Jehovah's approval? No. Do u know what Solomon's escapades caused the Nation of Israel? Pls. Answer the question. Why did the prophet marry all those women, espercially Aiyisha wen she was Just six and had sex with her when she was 9?

Islam is a fraud by the Father of lies- Devil. Take a journey thru the quran and see for urself confusions!!
Jesus set perfect example for christian in love!
Like the OP stated, how can u behead a man and steal his wife as in case of Mariam, saffia, memuna, rahina etc and still claim that God is with uhuh??
Like prophet like followers!!

Still no answer.Allah allows his prophet at least 11 concurrent wives but bans the ummah more than 4 concurrent wives. Was Allah prophet Muhammed and why was he so much concerned about how many wives his prophet could sleep with in a night?
Hint hint Allah might have been Muhammad.

Mohammed is the most successful and lustful mania in the world.
His entire world from here to paradise can be summarise in two words WOMEN,SEX.

Solomon never stipulated the number of wives Jews should marry. He also married many of his own volition.

Muhammad married 11 or 12 and commanded maximum of four wives for muslims. The important issue here is not the number of wives the prophet arrogated to himself. Its the hypocrisy displayed by the supposed best role model for humanity.

Try harder next time.

Prophet (pbuh) had the strength of 30 men which is proved a few times when he broke an unbreakable rock during the battle of trench when MANY other together do nothing to clear it , in another incident he wrestled The great Arab wrestler instantly 3 times and more. So he could have married 30x4 = 120 wives as he was also the King as solomon did, but he did not .

Even when he was younger at 40 years Arabs offered him to be their kings and marry as many beautiful girls he wanted only for in exchange os stoping his preaching of ONE GOD of Islam which he rejected. Think about yoursevles King and beauties ?

He was allowed in the Quran to marry as he thought was appropriate so he married those Mostly uncared widows and some in tribes (jews) to bring understanding etc and to diffuse situation in a war . So he was too modest for his Position as a King of Arabs .
