Marrage of Prophet |
In general, a question often resembles the Muslim, that is why the Messenger of Allah went to marry so many? Can not ordinary Muslim men marry more than 4? Why did he marry 11? In the current time when atheism and Islam-hatred have become extremely popular online and offline, it is important for ordinary Muslims to find answers to these questions. There are answers to these questions and in this post I will answer that. But before going back to the answer, we have to make a small role.
Pre-Rukiquete Knowing the Answer:
In some books written about the Prophet (peace be upon him) in our sub-continent, and various scholars talk about him with a lot of extortion in his lecture. For example, when the Prophet (peace be upon him) was created by Nur, nothing would have been done if he was not created, he was above all human and biological needs. These words are wrong. Of course, the Prophet (peace be upon him) is the best man among all people and he is innocent, but he should also remember that he is a man of blood and flesh like us, whom God has given special status because of his faith and deeds.
Among us there was hope, desire, anguish, unrest, anger, and the presence of Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him). Our difference with him was that he could keep them under his control, we can never, and we can never. We have such desires and desires, as naturally as humans, they were. As we are attracted to beauty, he also felt attracted towards the beauty. His difference with us is that we violate the limits of Allah to meet our desires, and look at those who should not be looked at, whose relation is to relate to him beyond the limits of Allah. However, the Prophet (peace be upon him) never violated the boundaries of Allah for fulfilling his needs, in all circumstances, he is following the commandments of Allah.
Say: "I am just a human being like you. On whom has been revealed that your god is Allah, so follow Him, and ask forgiveness from Him. " (Surah Fussilat 41: 6)
We will not object to any action of the Prophet (ﷺ) or any person if he obeys the two things below (both) -
One - if it is within the limits of Allah. That is, if God has made something lawful, then there is nothing wrong with it.
Two - If the work is acceptable in that society. (In the case of prayers, fasting or worship, it is not necessary to fulfill this second condition, but this condition is important in the affairs of worldly affairs such as marriages, worldly affairs.
Take, for example, polytheism of the Prophet (peace be upon him). We know that the Prophet (peace be upon him) has married a lot - it is also from Allah's permission, and it was acceptable practice in the society too - so no Muslim will object to polytheism. Again, many marriages are not generally acceptable in the present world system. Therefore, if a Muslim does not consider polygamy even after having the capacity for polygamy, even then, we will say he has corrected it. On the other hand, homosexuality is an acceptable behavior in the Western world, but as a Muslim, we are not in favor of this behavior because it is beyond the limits of Allah.
It is good to say that Islamic law is based on the Qur'an, Sunnah, Ignorance, and Analogy, but its application depends on some other matters, including - Consideration of Public Welfare / People Greater interest) and urf (social norm / social norm).
Question: In Islam where there is a permit for 4 men for a man, how did Muhammad marry 11? Is not his marital life unusual?
The Prophet (peace be upon him) had 11 wives, of which 9 were together as wives (the remaining two were dead). We honor his wives with regards to the Ummahat al-Mu'minin (the mother of the believers).
Although a Muslim does not have permission to have more than four wives, but the Prophet (peace be upon him) allowed Allah to have more than four wives. This permission has been given through the following verse.
O Prophet, I have made lawful for you your wives whom you have given a debt ... and if a believing woman gives a gift to a prophet, and if the Prophet wants to marry her, then she is lawful. And this is for you, not for the other believers. [Sura Ahazab 33:50]
But the question is, what is the reason for giving this benefit to the Prophet? Let's see some reasons for this -
Shari'ah of the Prophet (peace be upon him) was slightly different
Some parts of the Messenger of Allah's Shariah were different from the ordinary Muslims. This different Shariah gave him the advantage, but the responsibility was much more than that. For example, it was obligatory for the Prophet (ﷺ) to wear Tahajjud prayers every night, once it was unlawful for him to go to war after he had finished fighting equipment, it was unlawful for him to receive the gift, it was unlawful for him to leave a fortune for his family at the time of his death. So far none of the descendants of the Prophet (peace be upon him) can take Zakat any time, whether poor or poor. On the contrary, it was a very difficult rule that Allah gave him priority over few rules, one of them being allowed to have more than four wives.
The Prophet (peace be upon him) could marry more if he wanted
The Prophet (peace be upon him) spent the prime time of his youth with only one wife - he had only one wife till the age of 50. Yet, polygamy was a very normal thing in the Arab society and if he wanted, he could have more than one marriage. In our society, such as getting married, during the marriage, the quality of a boy or girl was most important - during his marriage, employment, education, income-earning was seen; The Prophet (peace be upon him) was the most famous grandson of Abdul Muttalib, the most respected and legendary figure of the most respected Quraish family in Arabia. So if he wanted to marry 10-12 before he was in his youth and prophethood, there was no issue for him, but he did not do it.
Marriage in that society was one of the ways of establishing unity
In the society we live in, the purpose of marriage is the same - to match a boy / girl with his partner in social status. However, in Arab society there was no "state" and there was a quarrel between a group and another group. The only way to stay socially safe during the time was to be clan, so that another reason for marriage in the society was to develop relationships with other families or other tribes. As the Prophet (peace be upon him) changed the custom of 3,000 years of Arabia, the whole new state system was introduced in Islam in just 23 years, so it was very important for him that he would strengthen relations with different tribes through marriage. From this point of view, polytheism was not permitted for the Prophet's (peace be upon him), but it was a great responsibility.
Below is the list of wives and wives of the Prophet (peace be upon him).
Wife's name is the main reason for marriage
1 Khadija bint Khuaylid (ra) General Social Marriage Proposal 10th year Khadija proposes common marriage with the consent of two families. It was Khadija's third marriage.
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) did not take any wives while Khadijah was alive. During the death of Khadijah, the Prophet (peace be upon him) was 50 years old. They had lived for 25 years.

After the death of her husband in the battle of Uhud, the Prophet (peace be upon him) was the only worthy husband for such a great woman. He died after 8 months of marriage.6 Um Salama (ra)
Another name: Hind bint Abu Umayya
Um Salamah Faith and the prize of the 5th Hijri it was his second marriage. Her husband was killed in the battle of Uhud. At the time of her death, her husband used to pray that she should be better than a man. Allah accepts those supplications through the Messenger of Allah. Umm Salama has mentioned many hadiths.
7 Jinnah bint Jahosh (RA) Allah's command (Surah Ahazab: 37) and the idea that the feathered child is not his son is established in society 5th Hijri, it is his second marriage. He was the Quraish and was the sister of Prophet Muhammad. In Arab society, marriage was a very normal thing to marry. Anas said that if the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to hide any verse of the Qur'an, then he wanted to hide the verse of marriage with Allah (Bukhari). - Only Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) made this marriage to observe the commandments of Allah.8 Juwairiyah Bint al-Haris (ra) friendship with Banu Mustalik 5th Hijri It is his second marriage. She was the daughter of Banul Mustalik. After accepting Juwaira as a prisoner of war, the Prophet (peace be upon him) freed him and got married. In this way, the Prophet (peace be upon him) encouraged the release of war guards. Hundreds of disciples released the prisoners of war. Through this marriage, the whole bunool muslim Islam is accepted.
9 Um Habiba bint Abu Sufyan (ra)10 Safia Bint Huai (ra) relation with the Jews 7th Hijri This is his second marriage. He was the daughter of the leader of Banu Nadir tribe. From the very beginning he loved Islam religion against the will of his father. In the battle of Khandak, he was taken as a prisoner of war. Allah's Messenger (</s>) released him and married him. Through this, the Prophet (peace be upon him) encouraged the liberation of liberation and also proved that there is no racial hatred of Muslims against the Jews.
Other names: Ramla
Removal of hostility from the Quraish, 7th AH, it is his second marriage. The daughter of Abu Sufyan, the unpredictable leader of the Muharrik Quraish, then Unable to tolerate the torture of the Quraish, Umm Habiba went to Abyssinia where her husband died, later the Prophet (peace be upon him) got married to him. This marriage helps to create love for the Prophet (peace be upon him) and Islam among many polytheists.
11 Maimunah bint al-Haris (ra)From the above information we can see that the reasons for the prayers of the Prophet (peace be upon him) were included in it - for normal social reasons, to strengthen relations with a friend, to develop a relationship with a tribe, or to honor the virtuous woman's husband who was martyred. And if the beauty of that woman attracts the Prophet (peace be upon him), then there is nothing wrong with this marriage. A man would like to marry her whom he likes - that is the normal biological matter.
Islam-east name: Barraa
On the request of uncle abbas and the development of ties with the Quraish 8th Hijri, it is his second marriage. The year after the Treaty of Hudaybiyah, when the Prophet (peace be upon him) came to Mecca to perform'Umra, uncle Abbas asked him to marry Maimuna. After this marriage, the Prophet (peace be upon him) invited the Quraish of Makkah (who still did not accept Islam) to his welfare and thus tried to improve relations with them.
The Prophet (peace be upon him) did not force anyone to marry
The Prophet (peace be upon him) never married anyone forcibly. He said that every person whom he married, wanted to be the wife of Allah's Messenger (</s>). He did not want to marry his wife.
We know an incident from a hadith narrated in Sahih Bukhari, where a woman named Umaymah bint Shahriel initially agreed to be the wife of Allah's Messenger. However, on the wedding night, the woman changed her mind and expressed her unwillingness to be a wife. When he saw the Messenger of Allah, he said, "I am asking for help from Allah". In response, the Prophet (peace be upon him) said - "You have sought shelter near the greatest. Go back to your family. "Before this, the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) gave divorce to Umaymah before marrying the consulate. According to some other narration, the disbelievers had done such a thing to the woman in order to humiliate the Prophet. It is also found in the history books that this woman spent her remaining days in mourning for returning the proposal to marry Rasoolullah.
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) did not hold any wife for forced force
The Prophet (peace be upon him) did not force anyone to marry, and forced not to hold anyone after marriage. Rather, any of his wives could leave him if he wanted.
O Prophet! Say to your wives, "If you wish for the enjoyment and luxury of the life of the world, then come, I will arrange for you provisions and send you peacefully with you. If you want God, His Messenger, and the life to come, then Allah has prepared a great punishment for those of you who do good. " (Surah Ahazab 33: 28-29)
From the Hadith, we would rather see that the wives of the Prophet (peace be upon him) did not want to divorced him, but everybody lived as long as he praised how great Allah's Messenger (</s>) was as a husband.
After the establishment of Islam, he did not marry anymore
If we look, we will see that the Messenger of Allah has 7 marriages during the 3rd to 8th Hijri. This was the most shaky moment of the life of the Prophet (peace be upon him), when the Muslims were going to war with different tribes, and peace with the different tribes. Therefore, at this time these marriages were part of political and social reforms. If she was a woman, then she had to marry many of her before and after. Not only this, the Prophet (peace be upon him) survived till 11 hijri. However, after the conquest of the Hudaybiyyah war of 7th Hijri and the battle of Hunain, Muslims became subject to the absolute dominance of the time of the Arab lands - Allah Himself referred to Sura Fatah as a "clear victory" in the Treaty of Hudaibiya. So we can see, in the 9th-11th hijri, the Prophet (peace be upon him) did not marry any more in the development of clan-related relations. If he had actually married only for his own needs, he would not have stopped marrying in the last two years.
