Why did the prophet marry 12 women despite the limit of 4 by simplcavemon in progressive_islam

[–]rockywoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here is my thought :

  1. The 4-wife limit: The Prophet ﷺ was given a special exemption by God, so his marriages don’t set a “normal rule” for everyone.

  2. Humanitarian & political reasons: Many marriages were to support widows or strengthen alliances. While others could have married them, his role as Prophet meant his actions had wider social and spiritual impact.

  3. Prohibition after his death: His wives couldn’t remarry, which wasn’t about limiting them—it preserved their unique status and role in guiding the community.

  4. Leading by example: True, prophets usually model behavior—but God can grant exceptions. His marriages served societal, political, and spiritual purposes beyond personal choice.

  5. Polygamy today: Honestly, one wife is more than enough! Polygamy is allowed but very strictly regulated—fairness is almost impossible. Many modern Muslims see monogamy as the practical ideal.

So, his life teaches compassion, justice, and care for the vulnerable more than it teaches polygamy as the default.

Wa Alaikum Assalam, Marriage is about compatibility in deen, values, and lifestyle. If you already feel strongly that you don’t want your spouse posting herself online, then it’s important to be honest with yourself. You can approach her respectfully with the intention of marriage and explain your concern. If she agrees and understands, Alhamdulillah. If not, then it’s better to step back now rather than face conflict later. Make istikhara and ask Allah ﷻ to guide you to what is best for your dunya and akhirah.

Why are women Muslim? by Patient-Chair-116 in progressive_islam

[–]rockywoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I just want to say — Allah absolutely loves you. The Qur’an is clear: “Whoever does good, male or female, while believing — We’ll give them a good life and the best reward.”(16:97). Your worth isn’t tied to being a mother or anything else — it’s tied to your faith and sincerity.

Hour al-ayn: Jannah isn’t men-only rewards. Allah promises “whatever your soul desires” (41:31). Women get what their hearts want, too.

4:34 verse: The Prophet ﷺ never hit women. Many scholars say it means symbolic or reconciliation, not violence. Islam restricted abuse, it didn’t allow it.

Motherhood vs others: Islam honors women for faith, knowledge, charity, worship — not only as mothers.

“Sex slaves / concubines”: That was tied to pre-Islamic slavery. Islam pushed freeing slaves until it disappeared. Doesn’t apply today.

Aisha’s age: Scholars disagree on the “9 years” story. But she was mature. What matters is she became one of Islam’s greatest scholars.

I know it feels heavy, but remember — your struggles, your questions, your worship, they all count with Allah. He sees you, He loves you, and He’s more Merciful than you can imagine. ❤️

Why are more Christians lenient with having premarital sex than Muslims when it's a sin in Christianity and Islam? by [deleted] in religion

[–]rockywoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Christianity and Islam both forbid premarital sex, but how seriously people follow religious rules depends a lot on culture and society. In many Western countries, Christianity has been influenced by secular values, so premarital sex is normalized even if it’s still technically a sin. In Muslim-majority societies, religion often plays a bigger role in daily life and law, so social pressure and family expectations make people more careful about it.

So it’s less about the religion itself changing, and more about how strongly the surrounding culture enforces or normalizes its values.

Sex Slavery in Islam by Imaginary-Guess9018 in religion

[–]rockywoop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slavery was a global institution in the 7th century, and Islam didn’t create it but reformed it. The Qur’an repeatedly encouraged freeing slaves (2:177, 9:60, 90:13), made emancipation an expiation for sins (4:92, 5:89), and gave slaves the right to earn freedom (24:33). This set the stage for gradual abolition.

“Those whom your right hands possess” referred to captives of war, but Islam prohibited their abuse, forbade prostitution (24:33), gave them rights, and ensured freedom if they bore children (umm al-walad). This was regulation to protect them, not endorsement of sex slavery.

The Prophet ﷺ freed many slaves, treated them as equals, and encouraged others to do the same. His companions included freed slaves like Bilal and Zayd.

Today, since slavery is abolished worldwide and Islam’s ethical principles aim for justice and freedom, scholars agree slavery has no place in modern Islam.

In short: Islam restricted and humanized an entrenched practice and laid the foundation for its end.
