Why Did the Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) Have Many Weddings ?

Questions:

Weddings ? Why did the Prophet (peace be upon them) have many? This is the very common question asked by many people so we decided to answer it

Answer:

Assalamu Alaikum WA rahmatullahi WA Barakatuh

Thank you for your question.

Our responsibility is to constantly portray & follow the most effective example of the prophetic teachings. It’s always best to busy oneself with the positive instead of the negative. All Prophets (peace and blessings upon them) remain of ethics, high status & exemplary character, even though individuals spread hate against them. That being said, some of the answers the scholars have presented to your question, are listed below:

Islam restricted the number to four. Islam introduced limits. Men of the time have been recorded to have many wives.

In fact, most males of all faiths had many wives. Marrying many wives was a common custom during that era. This is why no Christian, atheist or idolater etc. living at now, ever objected to his polygamous marriages.

All weddings apart from the first were when the age of fifty.1st wedding of Muhammad (peace and blessings upon him) was at the age of twenty-five.

All weddings of Muhammad (peace & blessings upon him) were commanded by God Almighty. Therefore he was obeying the command of God.

Several matters of religion are only known to us from the wives. A’isha (may God be pleased with her) is amongst those who narrate the most hadiths from the Prophet (peace and blessings upon him). By being in polygamous marriages, the wives were able to transfer the prophetic teachings of domestic life.

The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings upon him) broke this inappropriate custom demonstrating that there’s no curse by marrying widows. Therefore, all his wives apart from one were widows. He married the widows to facilitate & support them. During his time, marrying a widow, particularly with kids, would be looked upon as a curse.

Saudi Crown Prince ranks no 1 in Bloomberg list of world leaders likely to stick around

New Delhi: Bloomberg has picked 16 countries and analyzed how long their leaders might hold off the palace coups, election defeats or waning powers that end political careers. In the list, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is ranked 1st considering the fact that he isn’t king yet but he’s already effectively running Saudi Arabia at the age of 32 and he could conceivably govern for another half-century. Bloomberg has analysed that due to the presence of weak opposition and absence of a miraculous leader Modi can rule up to 2024. If the opposition doesn’t become strong Modi is likely to remain PM till 2029. Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman is followed by North Korean dictator Kim Jong UN. China’s Xi Jinping is on 3rd place. According to Bloomberg, Russia’s Vladimir Putin can have to give resignation in 2024. Recep Tayyip Erdogan can further rule for next one decade. Recep Tayyip Erdogan could become even more influential if he’s reelected in November 2019, when more power ...

Why do Dogs start Barking (Howling) at the time of Azan ?

Q uestions: Why do dogs cry at the time of Fajr Azan? This is an incident that I’ve noticed very often. A nswer: Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds; and may His blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all his Family and Companions. There are many wonders of Allah in His Creation. Dogs are among His Creatures. It is confirmed in a Hadith that dogs see what human beings cannot see. Abu Dawud reported in his Sunan that Jabir Ibn Abdullah narrated that the Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam) said:” If you hear the barking of dogs and the braying of donkeys by night, seek refuge in Allah, as they see what you cannot see”. Albani and others classified this Hadith as authentic. In Sahih Al Jamie’, following the above Hadith is stated: ..’And reduce going out when it is quiet( when everybody is indoors at night time) as Allah diffuses by night what He wishes among His Creation, and lock your doors and mention the Name of Allah on them as ...

School teacher terminated for physically abusing the School Child

School is a very special place that is a blessing to all of us who have attended it. In schools, we receive education and learn about things that build up our character. Education does not have any use unless a positive and appropriate character represents it. Now the question that should worry all of us is what sort of character a teacher should build of his students if he beats them up when they make a mistake? A video went viral on social media in which a teacher had the student pinned to the wall, as he was a holding a wooden stick in the other hand. The incident took place in a private elementary school in Al-Ahsa province. Apparently, the teacher had caught the student laughing and kept asking him why he was laughing. While asking the question he slapped the student three times and the student kept denying that he was laughing. The student was terrified and on the verge of crying as the teacher continued to verbally assault him while holding him against the wall....
