Wisdom behind the Prophet's, Salla Allahu 'alayhi wa Sallam, Marriages,
* [A5] Paperback - 88 pages,
By Muhammad 'Abd al-Mannan.
Description :
The greatest personality of mankind, the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, had eleven wives. No act of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, is devoid of logic and wisdom and it will be disbelief (kufr) to question it. However, living in the West and being bombarded with the way of the Western life through the form of the media, Muslims as well as non-Muslims question the multiple marriages of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.
It will be made clear by reading this book the background of the Arab Society at the time, hence the reason why the people, fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters gave their daughters and sisters for marriage.
