74.Muhammad’s marriage privileges:

There are 16 privileges given to Muhammad as mentioned in Tafsir Al-Qurtbi page 423. Here are some of them.

To take more than four women.

To marry, (or have intercourse), with a woman who verbally pronounces her dedication (to him). To marry, without the presence (or permission) of a legal guardian. To marry, without a dowry. (In Islam man gives dowry (Mehr).

To marry (and have intercourse) during a state of ritual consecration and purification.
The annulment of an oath he may make to his wives.
If Muhammad looks at a woman (and desires her) then it is necessary for her husband to divorce her and for Muhammad to marry her.

The number of wives that Muhammad gathered gives the impression that they were like pets or playthings for him.

“A lady came to the Prophet and declared that she had decided to offer herself to Allah and His Apostle. The Prophet said, "I am not in need of women." A man said (to the Prophet) "Please marry her to me." The Prophet said (to him), "Give her a garment." The man said, "I cannot afford it." The Prophet said, "Give her anything, even if it were an iron ring." The man apologized again. The Prophet then asked him, "What do you know by heart of the Qur'an?" He replied, "I know such-and-such portion of the Qur'an (by heart)." The Prophet said, "Then I marry her to you for that much of the Qur'an which you know by heart”(Bukhari, vol.6, Bk 61, N. 547).

75.A Muslim should be fair with his wives, but Muhammad was exempted.

 We presented ourselves along with Ibn `Abbas at the funeral procession of Maimuna at a place called Sarif. Ibn `Abbas said, "This is the wife of the Prophet () so when you lift her bier, do not Jerk it or shake it much, but walk smoothly because the Prophet () had nine wives and he used to observe the night turns with eight of them, and for one of them there was no night turn." (Sahih Bukhari 5067, Bk. 67, H. 5).

Urwah narrated from 'Aishah: that when Saudah bint Zam'ah grew old, she gave her day to 'Aishah, and the Messenger of Allah went to 'Aishah on Saudah's day. ( Sahih, Sunan Ibn Majah 1972, Bk. 9, H. 128).

"If a woman fears cruelty or desertion on her husband's part." (4.128) It is about a man who has a woman (wife) and he does not like her and wants to divorce her but she says to him, "I make you free as regards myself." So this Verse was revealed in this connection. (Bukhari, Volume 6, Book 60, Number 125). 

(Muhammad’s wife Saudah, whom he married after his wife Khadija died, raised the children of Muhammad and eventually she got fat and aged. She was afraid Muhammad was going to divorce her. So she said to Muhammad he could take away her right of the night shift and use it with other wives).

“Never did I find any woman more loving to me than Sauda bint Zam'a. I wished I could be exactly like her who was passionate. As she became old, she had made over her day (which she had to spend) with Allah's Messenger () to 'A'isha. She said: I have made over my day with you to 'A'isha. So Allah's Messenger () allotted two days to 'A'isha, her own day (when it was her turn) and that of Sauda”.(Sahih Muslim 1463a, Bk.17, H.62).

Quran 2:128 and 4:128 were  revealed in connection with depriving Sauda of her night shift. (Tirmidhi Vol.5, Bk.44, H.3040). Which wife would not like to spend night with her husband however old she might be? When Saudah was about to be divorced for being fat and aged, she voluntarily gave up her right.

Muhammad treated his wives unfairly and they fought for it. He loved Aisha and treated others as second wives. (Sahih Bukhari 2581

Favoring one wife: Muhammad said: "Whoever has two wives and favors one of them over the other, he will come on the Day of Resurrection with one of his sides leaning." (Sunan Ibn Majah 1969, Bk.9, H. 125).

Basing on this statement of Muhammad would be limping on the day of resurrection. Because he favored Aisha over every other wives.

 

76.A man can have sex with animals:

"The Little Green Book" "Sayings of the Ayatollah Khomeini", Bantam Books 7- “A man can have sex with animals such as sheep, cows, ewe, camels and so on. However, he should kill the animal after he has his orgasm. He should not sell the meat to the people in his own village; however, selling the meat to the next door village should be fine. - Khomeini's book, "Tahrirolvasyleh" fourth volume, Darol Elm, Gom, Iran, 1990; https://www.islamquest.net/en/archive/fa8061
