Best Answer

In Mecca, Muhammad was a businessman or merchant. In Mecca, Muhammad remained monogamous, married only to Khadija, even though polygamy was common in Arabia. His wife's cousin, Waraqa ibn Nawfal was a Christian. Muir, in Life of Mahomet which appeared between 1856-61, said that in the Meccan period of his life there can be traced no personal ends or unworthy motives.

In Medina, Muhammad became a great sayyid (chief ) and was expected to have a large harem, but most of these marriages were politically motivated. His favourite new wife was Aisha.
