Brides: Contrast and comparison of Muhammad (s) and Jesus Christ… Episode 4
One allegation is made against Hazrat Zainab (r), who was actually the cousin of Muhammad (s). The allegation is that Muhammad (s) married to a wife of his adopted son’s. For the information of those who dare to accept Truth, kindly read (Genesis 15:4) And behold, the word of the LORD came to him, "This man shall not be your heir; your own son shall be your heir. It states that God said to Abraham that only the one who comes from your body is the one who is your real son. So, an adopted son is not the real son according to Bible and Quran. So, marrying the wife of a person who is not ones son is indeed not objectionable. This was one of the common practices of the people of that time that they consider their adopted sons to be the real ones. At the hands of Muhammad (s), God destroyed all the ignorant traditions of that time. God, who sent his dear messenger to illuminate the whole world, commanded him to marry a divorced woman of his adopted son. People who continue to blame Muhammad for violating the family terms then they should read the following verses from Bible.
While illustrating the ancestors of Jesus in (Mathew 1:3), it is mentioned that Tamar was amongst the ancestors of Jesus. So, kindly read what kind of family relations she kept with her true father in law which is mentioned at (Genesis 38:6 to 18)?
According to Christians, all the Christian man and women are the wives of Jesus. But they don’t accept only few women as the wives of Muhammad. (Matthew 7:3) And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
