There are plenty of reasons to that question just as Solomon was married to 700 wives and still have 300 concubines. One thing I would probably consider is that Prophet Mohammad is building up a nation of Muslim's faithful followers and who would be more faithful than his wives and his children aside from his friends?
Then, there is a reason that they have to create a good way to justify Haggar, the mother of Ysmael, whom in the Old Testament it says that Haggar is just a household help that Abraham slept with because his wife Sarah would not conceive. It was normal during that time to allow that to happen when the real wife cannot bear child. However, since Haggar was sent away due to jealousy of Sarah, the story came in a way that Haggar will become just a concubine and since Ysmael is the father of all Muslims, then it is just fitting to make her as another wife rather than be called a concubine. Muslim royalties after Mohammad are allowed to have more than one wife and it was found also to be a very good way of enlarging the community of Muslims and making peace with other warring tribes by marrying their daughters and converting them into Islam.

I heard rumor about that. Tome times I have fantasies about having ten wives or 72 virgins when I get to heaven. Then I remember that it is difficult enough to satisfy one wife.
Then again, if I could only treat women like livestock, maybe I could handle a few dozen women.
Naaaah.

first of all 9 and not !) and Prophet Muhammad married them just to teach us following his steps .For example he got marry a black women inorder to show us that their is no difference between black and white human being cause His trabes used to use the black women and men as slaves so when Islam came it got rid of the idea of slaves .then Prophet Mohammad married a woman who died her husband in a war inorder to teach us that to takecare of like these women whom have no husband anymore and to takecare of her kids also He married Maria alkubtia inorder to show us that their is no problem to marry a foerigner who is not arab. It will take from me a long time to write about Prophet Mohammad life so I advise you to research at google about the life of Prophet Mohammad or about his wives and maybe these web sites will help you .www.cyberistan.org www.Islamonline.com www.islamalways www.islam.org

Gotta keep that corral stuffed full o' them heifers!

Rollin', rollin', rollin...keep them doggies rollin....

In other words, some people think quantity rather than quality of relationships. We see the same behavior with self-proclaimed "players" (or, playahs, I guess), who can't find value in one dear wife, but need a string of conquests to feel manly.

Bcos he believed in polygamy.After he found his followers having more wives than he , he limited them to 4 wives each so that no one could beat him ever again. Actually he had 14 wives, the youngest was 14 years old. He had them shave all their pubic hair.

Because he wanted the land and the money the new wife owned.

Do a little homework, people. Mohammed was taking care of widows and women without any means of support.
