Re: Four Marriages for women!!!

It is reported in Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 5.76 and the Hadith is narrated by al Miswar bin Makhrama (may Allah be well pleased with him)

Hazrath Ali asked for the hand of the daughter of Abu Jahl. Bibi Fatimah (may Allah be well pleased with her) heard of this and went to Allah’s Apostle protesting.
She said that the Muslims say that the Noble Prophet (Salla Allahu ta’ala 'alayhi wa Sallam) (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) does not become angry for the sake of his daughters. She wanted him to take action so she expressed her grief at the news that Hazrath Ali is going to marry the daughter of Abu Jahl as another wife. On hearing what Fatimah said the Noble Prophet (Salla Allahu ta’ala 'alayhi wa Sallam) (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) said that Fatimah is a part of him and he hates to see her being troubled. He said, “By Allah, the daughter of Allah’s Apostle and the daughter of Allah’s enemy cannot be the wives of one man." He thereby forbade Ali (may Allah be well pleased with him) from taking another wife whilst Fatimah (may Allah be well pleased with her) was alive.

The Prophet (pbuh) did not like it for his daughter, even though Hazrat Ali was allowed under Islam

This was a special case…
so its not a basis for islamic law…
