It was only after the death of his first wife, Khadîja, that Prophet Muhammad practiced polygamy. It is easy to conclude that at 50 years old, a man does not take on multiple wives unless with a serious motivation that has nothing to do with lust!
Through his successive marriages, he wove a veritable web with various aims: to honor Companions, to reward courageous women, to rally enemy tribes, which helped strengthen the Community. This is pure diplomacy!
And when, later, he proposed to "free" them from their union with him, all refused and chose: "God and His Messenger… even in poverty."
