If the Quran allows a Muslim man to keep 4 wives, why did Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) have more than 4?

That's a good question. There are a few reasons why Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) had more than 4 wives. Firstly, some of his marriages were political alliances to unite different tribes. Secondly, some of his wives were widows or divorced women who needed financial support. Lastly, the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was a model for the ummah and his marriages served as examples for his followers.
