I have no problem in rejecting bullshit like the parting of the red sea, creationism etc. I just get confused when I start thinking whether the Prophet pbuh was deliberately lying or if he THOUGHT he was hearing voices. So I want it as confused.......for now
I still wonder about that, but this bit from my blog clears it up for me, when the prophet wanted to marrry more than the 4 wife stipulated Quranic limit..
However, the prophet was already married to the limit of four wives. So Allah then sent him a revelation which set an exemption for him alone:
Qur'an 33:50 "O Prophet (Muhammad)! Verily, We have made lawful to you your wives, to whom you have paid their Mahr, and those (captives or slaves) whom your right hand possesses -- whom God has given to you, and the daughters of your paternal uncles and the daughters of your paternal aunts and the daughters of your maternal uncle & the daughters of your maternal aunts who migrated from Mecca with you, and a believing woman if she offers herself to the Prophet, and the Prophet wishes to marry her; a privilege for you only, not for the rest of the believers.”
Upon this revelation Prophet Muhammad married her.
Also Aisha, the wife he was closest to, noted that these new revelations from Allah appeared to be very convenient
Sahih Muslim - Book 008, Number 3454:
Allah revealed:" You may defer any of them you wish and take to yourself any you wish." Aisha said: “It seems to me that your Lord hastens to satisfy your desire “
