Who knows? Maybe that's what he thought he was doing by fighting and having a lot of women.

The guy whose message is right above mine has a point. we don't slam jesus or any other of u guys' prophets. we respect ur religions, so plz respect ours.
I just answered the wives thing in ur other question, but I think he was only in about six or seven battles, because his prophethood started when he was forty and ended when he was 63, so he was probably too weak. Also, the last fews years of his prophethood were peaceful. The other battles were probably other people fighting, and he was the leader. all but a few of those forty or so battles were in defense. the others were strategic. and during the battles he was in, they probably prayed at night, because Allah says in the Quran that you do not have to pray on time if you ar at war. The prayers only last about 2 to 4 minutes each anyway.

many people talking about prophet's wife "Aisha" as she is a young 9 year old girl.the point which they dont know is that in hot climates like the arab desert,africa,and so on a 9 year female is an adult woman.it is not like in cold climates where she needs to become 15 or 16 y old to become adult.
the other point about the prophet battles the answeres given above indicates total ignorance of story of islam .prophet didn't initiate any war ,in contrast he always looked for peace deals with the other side,he had peace deals and they were in his favour as peace is the optimal environment for islam spread.thats why the deals were always broken by the other side which initiates a battle.
the prophets faith and worship was the greatest,the meaning of worship in islam is not only praying and fasting .it means to be faith and working for the god, in your job and with any life issue.you may smile to other people and this is considered a worship!

his 9 wives were the witnesses of how much did he prayed , for example Aisha said (after he died) that he prayed too much and once he was bowing to God for too long that she thought he was died , when he finished , she told him "didn't God forgive you anything , prophet , so why all that praying?" he replied " if he did , woudnt i be a thankfull worshiper to him"
and during the 40 battles (if they are 40) praying is less , but all muslims prayed with him , and wittnessed him always praying
to why not ask idiot : man of lust doesn't live like that, live as poor , suffer hunger with muslims , fight in most of them they were outnumeberd by enemies , risk to die in fighting , walk at summer in hot deserts hundreds of miles to reach the place of the battle , never drink wine , pray five times at the musque , more at home , wake up before sunrise in freezing winter to wash up and pray at the humble mosque ,... etc.
another thing : God (allah) is NOT moon God , it is the God of Adam , eve , Jesus and Muses ,

He probably did spend some time in his home village of Takrit. Same home town as Saladin and Hussein. Just walking through that village he would have to pray to the moon god - that was the Takrit village god that he rescued from the well and elevated as the god of the muslims.

that's a good question. I think the wives kept him busy.
The battles were faught as they are today by the young men who listen to these false prophets. They fight thier battles for them.
Then atribute the victory to the guy who never went and say he won the battle. good example: When did Bush ever fight in Iraq?
Yet if there is victory it will be to his credit.
While he holds banquets and luncheons and sleeps with his beautiful wife.

since he was a prophet till he died. his life, mind and everything is for God.
his wives can hear him crying while worshiping God. u know so little about him.

He never worship God, He was involved in worship of the old sun god which he called alah. One of his wife was also a wife of his son.

A big part in worshiping God is how we live.

He didnt have time, thats why the Koran allows exception during battle, becuase he didnt .
