Why does Allah take special interest into the prophets bedroom? Why does the prophet gets revelations that only he could have more than 4 wife's? I can't stop thinking he was a false prophet nothing more than a king saying he is getting these revelations of convenience. When he was attacked by arabs about him marrying his adopted sons wife. Why he gets a revelation to settle that. Why does Allah care about the prophet bedroom. Moses or Jesus did not have this privaledge. Please change my opinion by explaining how I am wrong.
Because it was not God that gave him those privileges, he gave those privileges to himself! He just made it appear that it was Allah that granted it to him, where is rhe witness?? May the Police Be Upon Him!
Dr. Saffiyah. I am a bit confused. Why should a poor man take on more than 1wife much less more than 4 wives? And if marrying more than one wife was to help widows in the past , then what is the justification today? And what is the justification for marrying young girls who are virgins and thus not widows?
you can not marry a woman until she says yes to the marrige and she is emotionaly and physically mature in islam a women has full right to choose there spouses
@@piedadunda1647she was around 16 and older and there is arguments like how back in the day they would say 6 or 9 when they mean 16 or 19 also other arguments but even if you dont accept all the arguments for her being older which by the way are a lot from the mathematical argument of ayeasha sister asthma age during hijrah and her death ect you also have to accept the historical fact that back then everyone got married at that age and even recently in history people would get married at that age. It was a different time with different cultures and norms so we gotta look at it from a different perspective. People matured faster back then less distraction a lot less things to worry about and you also had to take on responsibilities at a earlier age. People that grew up in farms mature a lot faster thane kids in cities.
Why did he marry his daughter in law ( zaynab) wife of zayd ! Why did he Mary 9 year old aysha! Why did he have adulterous relationship with his caniz ( slave) Marya ghebteya ! Behind his wife habse! And so on and on and on !! Stop fooling yourself! Tell the truth! People know all about it !
I really would love for someone to explain why the marriage of young girl Aisha (may Allah grant her peace) took place. Why was her marriage consummated at such a young age. The records and dates state that she was 9. Why is this? And how can one come to accept Islam with knowing this?
She was 6. But because he was a lustful pdf. Only reason women fully cover is because he lusted so much. All the stories they didn't include in the quran are in the hadiths👍🏻 80% of muhammads wars were by force to convert people to Islam. So this video is a lie.
How did the women become widows? Attacking the tribes and Kill the men and making the women widows and marrying them wow ! What a kind system - Peace be upon him😂
Because Muhammad wanted do have many wives for various reasons and he used the allah told me so card whenever he wanted to. The fact is that YHWH Elohim wants us to only have 1 wife. Mark 10 8 - 8 And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh.
First of all just bc Allah hasn’t allowed. But if we look from scholars prospects if u get married to 4 men where would u know who’s the baby in ur womb. Would u provide for ur men everything money food etc Then if u get married to 4 men For men it is necessary to provide for women (wife’s)in Islam but women are not capable of doing it for the difference of thei body strength productive system and etc then would u be able to provide for ur men! While being pregnant no. And secondly perspective is that in Islam the Muslims majority of men are less than women , and the reason of it is that men do jihaad in the path of Allah and some of them are martyrs so if the majority of men are few than women that means half of the woman can get married and half of them can’t and it doesn’t make sense . Allah know everything and he knows what’s good and what’s bad so Allah is just and fair in everything he creates he is just with women also so he gives permission for men to marry 4 wife’s ofc if he provides for them equally and raise his children .
Most of the higher animals like Elephants are known to have only one female partner. But why did the Prophet permit 4 partners and downgrade the human to worse that of a animal. Further more, he did not comply with his own rule, he is known to have almost 11 wives. 9:36
(Animals also eat their Babies when they are hungry, why can't we do that?)

I left Islam after conducting a deep research and study about the meanings of the verses in Quran as an electronics engineer from Turkey. Most verses are not known by most Muslims except a few verses the meaning of which is unknown, are recited in Arabic language during prayer
At the beginning dr Ally says that the Quranic rule about the maximum number of wives was given by Allah for a specific time/place. This interpretation destroys the claim that the Quran contains teachings for everyone in every time. Besides, polygamy is a pagan practice, condemned in the Torah and in the Gospels.
The Bible doesn't prohibit polygyny. Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon and other prophets had more than one wife. You are ignorant of the meaning of paganism. Paganism is a person who worships more than one God, not marrying more than one wife.
There's any verse in the Bible where God say Davd, Solomon, Abraham who so ever must marry more than one wife if you say polygamy is allowed in the Bible? There's no such a verse. Real Christians go back to the beginning. God created one Man (Adam) and one woman (Eve) after the fall of Adam and Eve people started polygamy by their own will. If God did not punish them that does not make polygamy permitted. The Biggest problem of your Prophet Muhammad was that he couldn't understand the difference between what God said and what Man say @@hassanabdur-rahman1559
it does not destroy anything. quran tells to not enter prophet hause. quran tells free slaves in some situations. some verses are local and historical. though still there are countless lessons we can conclude from them. some are timeless. universal and timeless teachings of the quran are the attributes of allah. his orders about very fundemantal things like salah, chairty, good morals, justice, critical thinking, believing in the absolute justice and the judgement day etc.
A prophet is an example of the rules he puts on others, if that is what he or she presumes to do. 'Special exemptions' just makes it a hypocrisy. If some divorces reduced the number of polygamous relationships to four concurrently it removes they hypocrisy
What about Prophet having additional responsibilities? While others pray 5 prayers , He himself prays 6 , that too in the dead of night . Why would he even want to get up and sacrifice his sleep every night?
Nobody answers my question. How is it acceptable for the prophet of God to have had a six year old wife that he consummated their marriage with when she was nine? If we are to emulate him, the supposed most perfect man, then shouldn't all men seek out children for brides? Please please someone answer.
Sahih al-Bukhari 5081 Narrated 'Urwa: The Prophet (ﷺ) asked Abu Bakr for `Aisha's hand in marriage. Abu Bakr said "But I am your brother." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You are my brother in Allah's religion and His Book, but she (Aisha) is lawful for me to marry." Abu trying to get away with his daughter, he dissuaded him indirectly
@@TheTruth-hc7ww well. If you touch those, sensitive parts of the prophet, you will be labeled as traitor, kaffir, islamophobe and disrespectful towards the greatest man and his accomplishments for better humanity! Which humanity??
What does this has to do with this topic? The problems of that day should be solved acording to norms existing that same day. The issue is not Allah not being able to see the future but it is people not being able to live in the future.
In Islam, Allah is all-knowing and His wisdom encompasses all things, including the future. The marriage of Aisha to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is discussed within its historical and cultural context. In 7th century Arabia, it was customary for people to marry at a younger age than is common today. This practice was not unique to Islamic culture but was widespread across various cultures and religions of the time. It's important to consider that societal norms and practices have evolved over time, and what was acceptable in one era may not be seen the same way in another. decisions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) were guided by divine wisdom. The context and the reasons behind these decisions are best understood within the framework of Islamic teachings and the historical period in which they occurred.
I am a muslim but not as knowledgeable as Dr. Shabir, however I really struggle to understand any good in prophet marrying many wives especially a young one. I frankly sometimes doubt in perfectness of Muhammad and think people gone too far on praising him. May God forgive me if I am sinning by these words.
You’re right, I mean if God made a limit on how many wives you can have and the Prophet exceeded that amount, wouldn’t it be disobeying God. I don’t know either but I don’t think you’re winning by questioning those things, we are to praise God and not men.
@@gemsbokhtar6861 8 out of 9 wives were old widowed or divorced women. In today's society its very hard for elderly or divorced women with kids to find a new spouse. Men usually want kid-less or young women, even if they're older. Back then it was even worse, as men usually lived a shorter live due to getting into war early or for biological reasons (hard work), while getting married as man was quite a easier task than today, women had quite bad cards. Each of the Prophet's wives had a different status and family background, although most of them came from noble, political families. I think we can learn from the Prophet's marriage that women, even if they are past their prime or their status, deserve to be married again and not only married to someone who might accept her as she is, but who really take care of her with all heir rights and give her a good treat! And in that he set an example as a prophet, it is also an example for all pious Muslims. Many complain about the number, but I don't know any person on earth who shares his house with two, older, divorced women and takes care of them in a good way. Obviously it seems strange in first stance, but if you get older, marry and understand how a marriage and love is built, you understand what the Prophet Muhammad sallahu alyhi salam actually did was not a easy task. I don't even expect any muslim man of the world to be capable of what he actually did. And regarding his 9th wife, Ayeisha. Even if some people don't like it, Ayeisha's age is still an uncertain matter. There are quite a few contrasts and I say this after researching for hours and hours. But its certain that like Khadija she might be one, he really loved and where love was a central aspect of their gathering
Marriage is responsibilty. That's why the west denies marriage and chose dating oVer marriage. Imagine having more families and the responsibilities. It's a good deed with high reward and it's not easy. Feeding them providing them doing justice without being partial.

He said: "The one of you who has the longest arms." They took a stick and started to measure their arms. But Sawdah was the first one to follow him.

And yet in Islam marrying is about consent, but yet silence is considered consent. Sunan Ibn Majah 1870, and it continues too by the way.
Muhammad didn't marry for political reasons. If he did, his wives would have been daughters of kings. But they were former slaves and wife of his adopted son. Infact the only marriage that was financial was to kadijah, it benefited muhammad so much that he didn't marry multiple wives while she was still alive.
Thanks for this enlightenment Dr Shabir. In my country Malaysia, there seems to be an obsession with the idea of polygamy, and it's often companied by undertones of uncontrollable lust for sexual pleasure. It's really bizarre. It's really such a poor representation of marriage according to Islam and could not be further from what Dr. Shabir is saying here, which makes so much more sense and is at least dignified. That's why non-Muslims in my country perceive Muslim men in general as having issues with lust and perversion.
Let the Quran speak: “As for the righteous, there shall surely be a triumph: gardens and vineyards, and tender-bosomed maidens for companions: a truly overflowing cup.” According to Ibn Kathir, “the breasts of these girls will be fully rounded and not sagging, because they will be virgins." Sin is your eternal reward.
The problem is with the concept of marriage. In the west marriage means the sexual relatiinship so they point out the number if marriages. But in Islam marriagae has a very broad concept of Relationship, agreement, patronage etc etc.
I think s religion should be much more than such trivial issues like laws of marriage. Regarding laws of marriage, the modern constitution and legal framework are sufficient
Guess Jesus should have married the daughters of all the Pharisees and Sedducees as well was daughters of the Roman generals.....at least for political reasons😂😂 But Jesus came with a purpose and a kingdom far removed from the desires of life. Praise God🙏🏾
Islam already mandates consent for marriage. That's not the question.

@RosalineBettencourt Back then you would ask her parents first to talk to her and then see if she was interested. Considering marriages don't happen spontaneously and often take a year to occur in Islam, I am fairly certain that a moment of shyness didn't force someone to marry.

In either case, it would have been generally just as bad). Apparently, the supposed creator of the cosmos is not for equality and consent. Finally, parents should not be able to consent to marriage for their children. Moreover, some of these children were supposedly orphans, and what about the male children?

The real question should really be why do you have to marry a widow to support her? And why bother marry a widow with a child if treating them as your own is not allowed. It makes literally no sense. "Muhammad married to protect them or support them", and yet he was responsible for them being widowed or orphaned in the first place, there is no need to marry someone to help them.
The days we live in today are not the same that they lived in…..the world was very different….baby girls were killed at birth or sold as slaves and widows were burnt for being a curse for the husbands death and many other obscene things….unimaginable! How women could have been treated in those day…….if a woman had no husband she was everyone’s property to be abused in every way possible But if she was married she had someone who took responsibility for her…. This is my understanding We live in a western world so it’s not possible to understand the kind of practices that happened back then with women! I believe that women were given respect and saved from the oppression…. This is my point of view Even I had the same questions and I wonder why someone would do something like that But I also realised Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) didn’t live in 2024 The days were dark back then for women! Some women were burnt alive as witches some women were sold for prostitution Idk I can’t even imagine the kind of circumstances those women would have lived through And someone could marry them and save their life If I was a woman back then It would be a blessing if someone saved me from such demons and married me If someone married me as a favour because I would have no choice otherwise but to die or be a slave and lead a miserable life

I could see it wrong but not so many would be so much in love with someone after centuries of his passing (from earth) …. I respect your views but I suggest you put yourself in shoes of those helpless women and the kind of society they were brought up in….

In this generation it might look very odd But sometimes some actions are better for people in need! I hope God never puts you in a situation like that! God bless!
@@_Dannyforex read in depth not about Islam but about pagan practices in that generation Then maybe put yourself in shoes of those women No where in Quran it’s written to marry baby girls to save them from death You are very focused on the sexual aspect I’m looking at marriage as a way of saving women….not always I’m seriously not in for a religious battle Because I can see what you can’t see And if you don’t want to see No amount of explanation will help Anyways thanks for considering my views though you are still angry and annoyed with the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) I hope some day an answer comes to your questions
I thought the reason Muhammad (saw) had 9 wives was because the ruling restricting the limit to 4 came AFTER he already had 9, and therefore was grandfathered in and not expected to simply divorce 5 of them right then and there. Is this correct?
That's an interesting thought, but nobody even knows how many wives the prophet really had and all their names. We're talking about something that happened in ancient times. I think a lot of it is hearsay from Arabs who wanted to say the prophet was married to their own tribe People don't even know how many of these wives he was married to at the same time, so it could have been that he was married to only 4 at a time, although everyone seems to agree that during the lifetime of his first wife, he never married any other (even though he could have done). So that's interesting too. Also, he only had children from his first wife throughout his entire life and today only the descendants of one of his daughters of his first wife survive. So you should ask if he really had like 10+ wives to sleep with every night... where are all his kids? Sometimes you hear of people nowadays who marry a lot of wives (a lot more than 4) and they always have tons and tons of kids. So whyyyyyyy didn't he have any with any of them? Did he not sleep with them at all? If he did have more than 4 at a time, were they only "so-called wives" for political reasons and not true love marriages like this first wife?

Many of you here are looking through contemporary lenses. Things were different 1400 years ago. Since the Prophet had so many wives, why didnt his followers and enemies make an issue out of it? The Prophet is also a political leader and marrying from different tribes is a political move. And the Prophet is celebate too.
Prophet had many wives, He used them for his own glorification to access and keep power over all the tribe! He did not love even one of them.. It is political mariage and exploitation for my own glory! Muhammad married many wives, others people daughters and made polygamy an important thing but When Ali decided to take another wife beside fathima he said( not my daughter) he opposed it, he refused it completely! How many wives did Ali had? How many co-spouse did fathima had? Then when one older man wanted to marry fathima he refused he opposed saying ( she is still young) she was 16. Going to 17! Then when ali who was almost the same age than Fatima ask him about fathima he accepted) That is hypocritical ! Bcz he can marry many wives and young Aisha even when abu abjected! Why did he opposed refused Ali to follow polygamy?? Why did he refused to marry fathima to someone older than her?? Why did umar had to come to always settle his trouble in his household when his women sided each other because of Mary copt!?

And he was absolutely not desobeying God as the chapter mentioned at 4:23 clearly states the exceptionality of Prophet Muhamad pbuh position and a special authorization due to this position. And also the huge social and politacal benefits of those mariages to build trust among the people at that time as Dr Shabyr like i said explained.

Now remember david had 8 or more wives and many concubines. So now you left with one choice that is to deny what your god is explicit saying .
Abdul Mutalib had more than four wives. So did Umar, Uthman and Ali. We can deduce something from this: it was customary for a man of authority to have had multiple wives and the limit of four wives only was probably enforced much later.
In the West, historically Christianity is the greatest influence on marriage. Going back to the early church marriage was elevated to a sacred covenant between one man and one woman. TheIR unitive love reflects God's creative love and is constant and faithful. This understsndibg of marriage, polygamy makes no sense. Also, notice the patriarchs who had multiple wives also had strife between the children.
Dear "Let the Quran Speak", what does the Quran say about how many wives did the Prophet have? It seems like you always rely on hadith to explain every question. You're not letting the Quran speak for itself.
Yeah take those whom your right hand possesses in battle not that they are needy. And why was it only to him . Gee maybe if he didnt ban adoption one of the worslds most humanity act just to marry his adopted sons wife. So not only in one lustful act was a marriage ruined and but the desire to help those that are orphans or in need now cant happen . Really?
Shabir Sir You are beating round the bush. How come 18 were allowed to him and only four for others. In other words if you know Quran and you do not have money for Dower one can marry more than 18 ??For political and social reasons it is permitted to marry more than 18?? You want non muslim authors to justify this ?? The way you said about this verse it was a permission given to marry without offering Dower but Allah never explicitly permitted marry more than 4 wives. Sorry sir Explanations are not at all convincing.
Excuse me, but I'm a bit confused. If there are orphans, why not just adopt them as your kids? Why you need to marry them? What if there are male orphans, you have to marry them? This is a very odd answer to recommend marring orphans. Imagine if you worked at an orphanage, and a man showed up saying he was looking for wives. I would call the police.

Concurrently, without a legal heir to his spiritual, political, and material inheritance, the Prophet ﷺ was the final amongst the long chain of prophets. The annulment of adoption and his lack of a biological heir removed any confusion with regards to his inheritance, for now no one could lay claim to prophethood or political authority based on hereditary succession.

Fathima is said she was around 9- or 21… Yet Muhammad claim that, fathima is still young when she was around 16or 21 …, He refused to marry fathima to umar and abu on basic that she is too young for them, they are too old for her, then when Ali who was around he same age like Fatima, he accepted., birds of the same feature!
Did he just say that the main purpose of allowing multiple wives is for men to take the widows of his fallen comrades? Did Muslim men during Muhammad era really marry multiple wives for this reason? Or was this man just inventing unrelistic new silly excuses? Is the general Muslim community aware of this "justification" thru the centuries before this speaker "revealed" his version of true reason? Ironically, nobody was allowed to marry Muhammad's own widows. Even if one of them was just 18 years old when Muhammad died. What's up with that?
The way he talked about our Prophet Mohamed as being “a human being and having desires as the rest of us” was an utter of complete disrespect and a sign of his intense ignorance of the spirituality and humanity of the religion of Islam. "انما يريد الله ليذهب عنكم الرجس اهل البيت و يطهركم تطهيرا" That doesn’t sound like someone who can be described as “a human being and having desires as the rest of us”. Furthermore, the first 18 verses of the chapter of the Star in the Quran is clear proof that it is unfit to describe the prophet as “a human being and having desires as the rest of us”.
According to listening to Shabir. Mohammad had no good examples in him. All I’m hearing he did is spent his entire life in adultery and fornication. How sad for him in HEll😮
I think the Prophet (SAW) marry many times to spread the legacy of Islam and the unification of Jewish tribes into one. Peace be upon you. P.S. If people here had done more research they would know that Ayesha was engaged before Muhammad SAW. How old was she then really? This debate about Ayesha is ridiculous. Let her remnants rest in this dunya knowing her soul is with Allah. 🙏
Prophet Muhammed (PBUH ) is the model of all mandkind. You can also marry many women who are need to be wives. Instead of helping them marry them instead
Brother Shabir, I humbly suggest that you teach, train, prepare and equip some young men and women to do your work so that good will spread more and be sustained inshaAllah. Someone must carry the torch at some point in time (May Allah place baraka in your life and efforts, and may Allah reward you with Al Ferdaws).
Okay, lets say there are orphans, why not just adopt them as your children, why you need to marry them? So what if there are boy orphans, then what? You have to marry the boys too? This doesn't make any sense and is not logical at all.
It us a false interpretation. God allows a man to have many wives if He can feed and look after them.Not only4 which is a wrong interpretation but 5 or 6 or 7 or 8 or 9 or 10…11…12 if a man can nourish them.
Dr. Shabir Ally, in this video you have stated that having 4 wives was based on certain "conditions" at the time of the prophet (exp: muslim men being murdered which gave rise to muslim widows). Wouldn't your statement then contradict the validity of other messages in the Q'uran in regards to how we should live in 2023? In no way am I questioning A'llah. I am questioning the credibility of some of the messages in the Quran and how it maybe applied in todays world since it is taught that what is in the Quran may be applied in any generation of humankind.
Why does Allah take special interest into the prophets bedroom? Why does the prophet gets revelations that only he could have more than 4 wife's? I can't stop thinking he was a false prophet nothing more than a king saying he is getting these revelations of convenience. When he was attacked by arabs about him marrying his adopted sons wife. Why he gets a revelation to settle that. Why does Allah care about the prophet bedroom. Moses or Jesus did not have this privaledge. Please change my opinion by explaining how I am wrong.
Jesus did not have multiple wives because he had 0 wives.

This guy needed 18 minutes to answer one question and he still didn't answer it
HE HAD MASTERED THE ART OF DECEPTION
Exactly
He should have just said many wives so that there will be different sexual flavors each month in the calendar! So he commanded Allah to allow it!
happens too often when the question is "problematic"
Because even he himself got confused how to defend it! What a clown!
Jesus said, help the widow
Muhammed said, marry the widow
That what he is telling
Because Muhammad wanted do have many wives for various reasons and he used the allah told me so card whenever he wanted to. The fact is that YHWH Elohim wants us to only have 1 wife. Mark 10 8 - 8 And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh.
Christianity has respect for women, respect for their virtue, respect for their independence and respect for their wellbeing.
Exactly. 1 wife. Also, God created men to be with women. Not men with babies. Poor aisha.
Why are women not allowed to have 4 men ?
First of all just bc Allah hasn’t allowed.
But if we look from scholars prospects if u get married to 4 men where would u know who’s the baby in ur womb. Would u provide for ur men everything money food etc
Then if u get married to 4 men
For men it is necessary to provide for women (wife’s)in Islam but women are not capable of doing it for the difference of thei body strength productive system and etc then would u be able to provide for ur men! While being pregnant no.
And secondly perspective is that in Islam the Muslims majority of men are less than women , and the reason of it is that men do jihaad in the path of Allah and some of them are martyrs so if the majority of men are few than women that means half of the woman can get married and half of them can’t and it doesn’t make sense . Allah know everything and he knows what’s good and what’s bad so Allah is just and fair in everything he creates he is just with women also so he gives permission for men to marry 4 wife’s ofc if he provides for them equally and raise his children .

At the beginning dr Ally says that the Quranic rule about the maximum number of wives was given by Allah for a specific time/place. This interpretation destroys the claim that the Quran contains teachings for everyone in every time. Besides, polygamy is a pagan practice, condemned in the Torah and in the Gospels.
The Bible doesn't prohibit polygyny. Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon and other prophets had more than one wife. You are ignorant of the meaning of paganism. Paganism is a person who worships more than one God, not marrying more than one wife.
There's any verse in the Bible where God say Davd, Solomon, Abraham who so ever must marry more than one wife if you say polygamy is allowed in the Bible? There's no such a verse. Real Christians go back to the beginning. God created one Man (Adam) and one woman (Eve) after the fall of Adam and Eve people started polygamy by their own will. If God did not punish them that does not make polygamy permitted. The Biggest problem of your Prophet Muhammad was that he couldn't understand the difference between what God said and what Man say @@hassanabdur-rahman1559
it does not destroy anything. quran tells to not enter prophet hause. quran tells free slaves in some situations. some verses are local and historical. though still there are countless lessons we can conclude from them. some are timeless. universal and timeless teachings of the quran are the attributes of allah. his orders about very fundemantal things like salah, chairty, good morals, justice, critical thinking, believing in the absolute justice and the judgement day etc.
how and why did he become a prophet
Making excuses…. Then he should have married 100 times if its for taking care of needy…
Dude to me he against having many wives he just indirectly say it
What did he try to explain ? Confused
A prophet is an example of the rules he puts on others, if that is what he or she presumes to do. 'Special exemptions' just makes it a hypocrisy. If some divorces reduced the number of polygamous relationships to four concurrently it removes they hypocrisy
What about Prophet having additional responsibilities? While others pray 5 prayers , He himself prays 6 , that too in the dead of night . Why would he even want to get up and sacrifice his sleep every night?

The marriage of Aisha to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is discussed within its historical and cultural context.
In 7th century Arabia, it was customary for people to marry at a younger age than is common today. This practice was not unique to Islamic culture but was widespread across various cultures and religions of the time. It's important to consider that societal norms and practices have evolved over time, and what was acceptable in one era may not be seen the same way in another.
decisions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) were guided by divine wisdom. The context and the reasons behind these decisions are best understood within the framework of Islamic teachings and the historical period in which they occurred.

You’re right, I mean if God made a limit on how many wives you can have and the Prophet exceeded that amount, wouldn’t it be disobeying God. I don’t know either but I don’t think you’re winning by questioning those things, we are to praise God and not men.
Sorry these reasons don’t fit in my mind as justification. I really don’t want to hurt anyones believe. I’m just telling my feelings and confusion.
@@gemsbokhtar6861 8 out of 9 wives were old widowed or divorced women. In today's society its very hard for elderly or divorced women with kids to find a new spouse. Men usually want kid-less or young women, even if they're older. Back then it was even worse, as men usually lived a shorter live due to getting into war early or for biological reasons (hard work), while getting married as man was quite a easier task than today, women had quite bad cards.
Each of the Prophet's wives had a different status and family background, although most of them came from noble, political families. I think we can learn from the Prophet's marriage that women, even if they are past their prime or their status, deserve to be married again and not only married to someone who might accept her as she is, but who really take care of her with all heir rights and give her a good treat! And in that he set an example as a prophet, it is also an example for all pious Muslims. Many complain about the number, but I don't know any person on earth who shares his house with two, older, divorced women and takes care of them in a good way. Obviously it seems strange in first stance, but if you get older, marry and understand how a marriage and love is built, you understand what the Prophet Muhammad sallahu alyhi salam actually did was not a easy task. I don't even expect any muslim man of the world to be capable of what he actually did.
And regarding his 9th wife, Ayeisha. Even if some people don't like it, Ayeisha's age is still an uncertain matter. There are quite a few contrasts and I say this after researching for hours and hours. But its certain that like Khadija she might be one, he really loved and where love was a central aspect of their gathering
They were all adults.

But Sawdah was the first one to follow him. She was the one who had the longest arms, because she used to give in charity a great deal.

And yet in Islam marrying is about consent, but yet silence is considered consent. Sunan Ibn Majah 1870, and it continues too by the way.
Muhammad didn't marry for political reasons. If he did, his wives would have been daughters of kings. But they were former slaves and wife of his adopted son. Infact the only marriage that was financial was to kadijah, it benefited muhammad so much that he didn't marry multiple wives while she was still alive.
Thanks for this enlightenment Dr Shabir. In my country Malaysia, there seems to be an obsession with the idea of polygamy, and it's often companied by undertones of uncontrollable lust for sexual pleasure. It's really bizarre. It's really such a poor representation of marriage according to Islam and could not be further from what Dr. Shabir is saying here, which makes so much more sense and is at least dignified. That's why non-Muslims in my country perceive Muslim men in general as having issues with lust and perversion.
Let the Quran speak: “As for the righteous, there shall surely be a triumph: gardens and vineyards, and tender-bosomed maidens for companions: a truly overflowing cup.”
According to Ibn Kathir, “the breasts of these girls will be fully rounded and not sagging, because they will be virgins."
Sin is your eternal reward.
To meet Carnal lust, fleshy desires
He tried best but if marriage is done for responsibility and more childrens
Then why triple talaaq and halala is legal
The problem is with the concept of marriage. In the west marriage means the sexual relatiinship so they point out the number if marriages. But in Islam marriagae has a very broad concept of Relationship, agreement, patronage etc etc.
I think s religion should be much more than such trivial issues like laws of marriage. Regarding laws of marriage, the modern constitution and legal framework are sufficient
Guess Jesus should have married the daughters of all the Pharisees and Sedducees as well was daughters of the Roman generals.....at least for political reasons😂😂

@RosalineBettencourt Back then you would ask her parents first to talk to her and then see if she was interested.

In either case, it would have been generally just as bad). Apparently, the supposed creator of the cosmos is not for equality and consent. Finally, parents should not be able to consent to marriage for their children. Moreover, some of these children were supposedly orphans, and what about the male children?
con-what? Momo's times are like the Taliban but with a black stone in the middle. You must be from the future.
The real question should really be why do you have to marry a widow to support her? And why bother marry a widow with a child if treating them as your own is not allowed. It makes literally no sense. "Muhammad married to protect them or support them", and yet he was responsible for them being widowed or orphaned in the first place, there is no need to marry someone to help them.
The days we live in today are not the same that they lived in…..the world was very different….baby girls were killed at birth or sold as slaves and widows were burnt for being a curse for the husbands death and many other obscene things….unimaginable!

I thought the reason Muhammad (saw) had 9 wives was because the ruling restricting the limit to 4 came AFTER he already had 9, and therefore was grandfathered in and not expected to simply divorce 5 of them right then and there. Is this correct?
That's an interesting thought, but nobody even knows how many wives the prophet really had and all their names. We're talking about something that happened in ancient times. I think a lot of it is hearsay from Arabs who wanted to say the prophet was married to their own tribe
People don't even know how many of these wives he was married to at the same time, so it could have been that he was married to only 4 at a time, although everyone seems to agree that during the lifetime of his first wife, he never married any other (even though he could have done). So that's interesting too. Also, he only had children from his first wife throughout his entire life and today only the descendants of one of his daughters of his first wife survive.
So you should ask if he really had like 10+ wives to sleep with every night... where are all his kids? Sometimes you hear of people nowadays who marry a lot of wives (a lot more than 4) and they always have tons and tons of kids. So whyyyyyyy didn't he have any with any of them? Did he not sleep with them at all? If he did have more than 4 at a time, were they only "so-called wives" for political reasons and not true love marriages like this first wife?

Many of you here are looking through contemporary lenses. Things were different 1400 years ago. Since the Prophet had so many wives, why didnt his followers and enemies make an issue out of it?

Then when one older man wanted to marry fathima he refused he opposed saying ( she is still young) she was 16. Going to 17!
Then when ali who was almost the same age than Fatima ask him about fathima he accepted)
That is hypocritical !
Bcz he can marry many wives and young Aisha even when abu abjected!
Why did he opposed refused Ali to follow polygamy??
Why did he refused to marry fathima to someone older than her??
Why did umar had to come to always settle his trouble in his household when his women sided each other because of Mary copt!?
@@cocoalfaridah5831 What are you talking about Abu bakr objecting to Aisha marriage with the prophet... Making stuff up.
Here is a copy paste of a comment i posted.
In the video Dr Sahbyr explained that the marrying of this wives had politcal and social importance to islam as he was the prophet. And he was absolutely not desobeying God as the chapter mentioned at 4:23 clearly states the exceptionality of Prophet Muhamad pbuh position and a special authorization due to this position. And also the huge social and politacal benefits of those mariages to build trust among the people at that time as Dr Shabyr like i said explained.
Imagine if king Saud’s daughter marry with Natanyahoo and Natanyahoo’s with Khamenayee and Khamenayee with with Donald trump and his with Putin. Then we’ll have a peaceful world.
@@cocoalfaridah5831 good questions
@@rahmath3305 that is absolutely not true,
If the saoudite leader Mary trump daughter to bring unity of peace, he will brake the treaty and marry his own cousin, bloodlife to used Donald trump daughter then
Trump will get sad and feel humiliated and fooled and manipulated, then he will bring the marine to bombe them or find way to take revenge..
Muslim never keep these kind of promise ..
They can marry as much as they can include concubine..
You did not say the détails of the spouses of the prophet
Having more than one wife is unfair and then four wives and then multiple wives is unethical and it clearly shows might is right, I really hate this kind of belief and all are done in the name of God, shame to all of you who preach this kind of culture. You all Ned to wake up.
"the dog ate my homework" is a more honest excuse than Momo's special rights that he gave to himself with his special channelings that could only be verified by ... himself.
I think women don't want to hear this message.
Prophet of bible also have many wives without any objection from God …
Solomon 700 wives 300 concubines
David 8 wives and many concubines
That is not true, it is not God who told them to have these women, it was their own lust and God punished them
All..
You can find their lamented and prayers and begging forgiveness to God in many verses in the Bible..
David was punished
Solomon was punished by
God in the Bible…
God didn’t not contributed, nor did he encouraged them, he told them and send messenger to warn them from their lust and greed
That is not truth, the God of the Bible punished David and Solomon for their sins!
pride In them create lust, then greed, then envy , then gluttony, and sloth and finally wrath in them..
Sins!!
In the case of the god of Muhammad, he encouraged him to lust, be proud, feed his greed , nurture his envy to satisfy his gluttony!!!
Is this the same God??
One discourage lust and envy, the other encourage lust and envy???
This is clearly not th same god who is against the root of the deathly sins
Are you saying that Muhammad is just being a regular man?
@@TheTruth-hc7ww that is exactly the picture it give in his regard!..
It look like a regular man who have accessed power! And use it for some of his benefit insensitive to the lower guy feeling!
That is what it looks like!!

@@cocoalfaridah5831 its seems like you are in conflict with your bible
1 Kings 15:5 NIV
“For David had done what was right in the eyes of the Lord and had not failed to keep ANY of the Lord’s COMMANDS ALL the days of his life-except in the case of Uriah the Hittite.”
According to your own God david only sin was killing Uriah , the husband of Bathsheba . Now remember david had 8 or more wives and many concubines.
So now you left with one choice that is to deny what your god is explicit saying .
Because he got Special concenssion he was Chosen One. Nice Trickery
Abdul Mutalib had more than four wives. So did Umar, Uthman and Ali. We can deduce something from this: it was customary for a man of authority to have had multiple wives and the limit of four wives only was probably enforced much later.
In the West, historically Christianity is the greatest influence on marriage. Going back to the early church marriage was elevated to a sacred covenant between one man and one woman. TheIR unitive love reflects God's creative love and is constant and faithful. This understsndibg of marriage, polygamy makes no sense. Also, notice the patriarchs who had multiple wives also had strife between the children.
Dear "Let the Quran Speak", what does the Quran say about how many wives did the Prophet have? It seems like you always rely on hadith to explain every question. You're not letting the Quran speak for itself.
Excellent analysis!
Yeah take those whom your right hand possesses in battle not that they are needy. And why was it only to him . Gee maybe if he didnt ban adoption one of the worslds most humanity act just to marry his adopted sons wife. So not only in one lustful act was a marriage ruined and but the desire to help those that are orphans or in need now cant happen . Really?
Any conversation that starts with "!my interpretation^ is going to be BS .
INTERPRETATION = what you hope or want it to be
Shabir Sir
You are beating round the bush.
How come 18 were allowed to him and only four for others.
In other words if you know Quran and you do not have money for Dower one can marry more than 18 ??For political and social reasons it is permitted to marry more than 18??
You want non muslim authors to justify this ??
The way you said about this verse it was a permission given to marry without offering Dower but Allah never explicitly permitted marry more than 4 wives.
Sorry sir
Explanations are not at all convincing.
Then why woman are not allowed to marry atleast 2 men if not four as allowed by men??
Why does Dr Shabir Ally Not debate Christian Prince on some of the topics he dicuss on your show.
Must you marry more b4 u can take care of widows?
Is there no other way to help the orphans or widows .
in ragards to his explanation of marrying upto 4 wives his explanation is wrong.
Very informative, thank you
Excuse me, but I'm a bit confused. If there are orphans, why not just adopt them as your kids? Why you need to marry them?
What if there are male orphans, you have to marry them? This is a very odd answer to recommend marring orphans.
Imagine if you worked at an orphanage, and a man showed up saying he was looking for wives. I would call the police.
Get your head examined
He was basically a womaniser! Why this long explanation and justification
I ask you right now If your Imam have 10 wives would you follow your imam this day?
After conquering Madina he Prphet Muhammad became a rich man and conquer of Arab by Gonimot earn by the war .
A couple of his wives were Jews? and one or two of his children died, how could he not bring them back if he was such a great prophet?
He was sexiest man and a brutal towards who refused to follow his dictums
Care for the widows can be as a brother and served them
The lady has the same surname as the Sheikh, are they related?
His daughter
He intentionally skipped Mohammed marrying his daughter in law..
Zaid RA was not prophet son . He was a slave given to prophet wife on her wedding . Later when he was in his youth his family saw him and ask prophet to give them . Zaid decided to stay with prophet . Prophet elevated status as adopted son . There was no blood relation nor they adopted in as infant or in need of son .
However there are stories in the bible like Abrahim marrying his step sister and God having no objection . Also the story of lot is something you might want to skip …peace
What about the beautiful Safiya - He exchanged 7 slaves for her...He was a just man who had numerous slaves...AND what about Maria the cook/maid ? and they had a son Ibrahim...
@@takhtar4877 so you are saying that, because he elevated his status ( wish is something a normal man can do)
He had the right to take his only wife though??
Prophet already have many wives and fresh aisha -and beautiful safiya and sawda
He had many women already included captives..
Zaid was a slave afraid of his master and let his only luck he had to have a free woman for himself!
What do you mean he wasn’t his biological son?
It is even painful for a helpless man, without power whatsoever to see his wife go in the hand of his boss!!!
( broken trust, self pity, self esteem -humiliation. Powerless in front of another man) the way zaid felt and just accept the humiliation, disrespect!!
Let me ask
You. Can you forgive a friend who take your wife from you?
A friend you respected and trusted??
Can you???
@@cocoalfaridah5831 i suppose you have no background knowledge on the matter. Zaid is an adopted son amd not a real son. Zaid divorced his wife independent of Muhammad saw and he then married her showing the community that one an adopted son can never be your son and that
to establish the precedent of the Prophet ﷺ marrying the ex-wife of an adopted son who took on the name of a non-biological father (adʿīyāʾ), so that the proscription on this practice could be forever abolished. Concurrently, without a legal heir to his spiritual, political, and material inheritance, the Prophet ﷺ was the final amongst the long chain of prophets. The annulment of adoption and his lack of a biological heir removed any confusion with regards to his inheritance, for now no one could lay claim to prophethood or political authority based on hereditary succession.
@@deathshadow5316 sir I have the full background of the story..
Muhammad went to the house of zaid, he wasn’t there then he saw zeinab, body she was beautiful according to him then he said it loudly ( god moved his heart by seeing her) then when zaid came came back zeinab told him and zaid knew exactly what to do according to the 1) privileges of Muhammad one of them is: ( if the eye of Muhammad fall into a woman, her husband must divorce her so that he might have her!)
Find theses 16 privileges of Muhammad in the website of official gouvernement of south Arabia)
Let me send you the link..
Zaid divorced her according the Muhammad privilege!
Now that we are living in the 21st century how men take on 1 wife instead of being greedy.
This guy is tripping y'all.
Why the women is not allowed to have four husband? Why the Qur'an is anti-women? Why so much of gender inequality!? I need a rational and analytical expatation if you have any!?
The translation of kalima is..” There is no god but Allah”
There is no god but God is not the correct translation. Allah is the name of the real God. Please dont hesitate to tell the true islam.
It's all interesting but Mohammad's daughter Fatima is of very high status as daughter of the prophet yet Aisha leads an army against Fatima. This was island first civil war between suni and Shia Muslims. I can't stop but think it was all about power
Yeah the same chapter that banned adoption
Why did he marry so many wives no anser
He doesnt want his head sliced off
I like Dr Shabir, but I think he does not have knowledge. He has information. I think he should focus on what he does well; that is focusing on areas of debates
Using women for political and social reasons , absolutely disgusting
Faith ;
not wanting to know what the truth is
A Muslim should have more than four pigs, but only one wive
When you lie it becomes a big mess.
You still support this foolish concept of marrying several wives.
Muhammad married 12 women in 8 years 😮
Sunan an-Nasa'i
Hadith 3221)
Narrated 'Abdullah bin Buraidah:
It was narrated from 'Abdullah bin Buraidah that his father said: "Abu Bakr and 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with them, proposed marriage to Fatimah but the Messenger of Allah said: 'She is young.' Then 'Ali proposed marriage to her and he married her to him."
Ali was 22 around.
Fathima is said she was around 9- or 21…
Yet Muhammad claim that, fathima is still young when she was around 16or 21 …,
He refused to marry fathima to umar and abu on basic that she is too young for them, they are too old for her, then when Ali who was around he same age like Fatima, he accepted., birds of the same feature!
As your name is Shabir so the name of the universe God is Allah, so in each and every language Allah should be used.
Did he just say that the main purpose of allowing multiple wives is for men to take the widows of his fallen comrades? Did Muslim men during Muhammad era really marry multiple wives for this reason? Or was this man just inventing unrelistic new silly excuses? Is the general Muslim community aware of this "justification" thru the centuries before this speaker "revealed" his version of true reason?
Ironically, nobody was allowed to marry Muhammad's own widows. Even if one of them was just 18 years old when Muhammad died. What's up with that?
Didn't salomon have 200 wives?
Discusting.
The way he talked about our Prophet Mohamed as being “a human being and having desires as the rest of us” was an utter of complete disrespect and a sign of his intense ignorance of the spirituality and humanity of the religion of Islam.
"انما يريد الله ليذهب عنكم الرجس اهل البيت و يطهركم تطهيرا"
That doesn’t sound like someone who can be described as “a human being and having desires as the rest of us”.
Furthermore, the first 18 verses of the chapter of the Star in the Quran is clear proof that it is unfit to describe the prophet as “a human being and having desires as the rest of us”.
According to listening to Shabir. Mohammad had no good examples in him. All I’m hearing he did is spent his entire life in adultery and fornication. How sad for him in HEll😮
Could you please address this question , why does Shaytan have so much leeway and permission to influence mankind.?
This 33:50 verse is a little bit suspicious 😂
The mental gymnastics is real. 😂
Simone Biles would quit her career in shame if she ever glanced the top-tier performances in the realm of the religious apologetics
I think the Prophet (SAW) marry many times to spread the legacy of Islam and the unification of Jewish tribes into one. Peace be upon you.
P.S. If people here had done more research they would know that Ayesha was engaged before Muhammad SAW. How old was she then really? This debate about Ayesha is ridiculous. Let her remnants rest in this dunya knowing her soul is with Allah. 🙏
Prophet Muhammed (PBUH ) is the model of all mandkind. You can also marry many women who are need to be wives. Instead of helping them marry them instead
He seems to be quite embarassed while giving an explanation
Brother Shabir,
I humbly suggest that you teach, train, prepare and equip some young men and women to do your work so that good will spread more and be sustained inshaAllah.
Someone must carry the torch at some point in time (May Allah place baraka in your life and efforts, and may Allah reward you with Al Ferdaws).
Okay, lets say there are orphans, why not just adopt them as your children, why you need to marry them? So what if there are boy orphans, then what? You have to marry the boys too? This doesn't make any sense and is not logical at all.
Prophet Lot had one wife and we all saw how the story ended. Polygyny is and remains permissible in Islam by choice
It us a false interpretation.
God allows a man to have many wives if He can feed and look after them.Not only4 which is a wrong interpretation but 5 or 6 or 7 or 8 or 9 or 10…11…12 if a man can nourish them.
Dr. Shabir Ally, in this video you have stated that having 4 wives was based on certain "conditions" at the time of the prophet (exp: muslim men being murdered which gave rise to muslim widows). Wouldn't your statement then contradict the validity of other messages in the Q'uran in regards to how we should live in 2023? In no way am I questioning A'llah. I am questioning the credibility of some of the messages in the Quran and how it maybe applied in todays world since it is taught that what is in the Quran may be applied in any generation of humankind.
It’s for all time, not for every time. If something doesn’t fit for us then it wasn’t for us
