Did the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ Have Concubines, and Was That Considered Zina?

This objection is based on a serious misunderstanding and ignorance of Islamic teachings. In Islam, relations with a female slave (concubine) were not considered zina (fornication/adultery); rather, they were lawful according to Islamic law, and this is explicitly mentioned in the Qur’an:

وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ لِفُرُوجِهِمْ حَافِظُونَ  إِلَّا عَلَىٰ أَزْوَاجِهِمْ أَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُهُمْ

(Surah Al-Mu’minun 23:5-6)

Translation: “And those who guard their private parts, except from their wives or those whom their right hands possess.”

Therefore, the Qur’an itself does not classify relations with “ما ملكت أيمانهم” as zina. Accusing the Prophet ﷺ of zina is false, disrespectful, and extremely dangerous, because the Prophets (peace be upon them) are protected from major sins, especially acts like zina. Judging divine laws through modern Western standards is neither fair nor intellectually honest.
