You want to know who is the author of the Quran, check chapter 33:
Zaynab was married to Zaid, Muhammad's adopted son. One day Muhammad paid a visit to Zaid's house. Not expecting Muhammad, , Zaynab answered the door dressed in a revealing garment, and Muhammad is quoted in Tafsir Al Qurtubi and Al Tabari as saying:
سبحان مقلب القلوب
"Glory to the one who turns the hearts"
When Zaid learned of the Prophet's comments, he felt obliger to divorce her so Muhammad could marry her.
You can. Read this in the Tafsir here:https://quran.com/en/al-ahzab/37/tafsirs check the classic Arabic Tafsir Al Qurtubi. Later, Ibn Kathir and modern scholars tried to down play this claiming this is weak narration.
It was controversial among the Arabs, not just for marrying his first cousin but for taking his adopted son's wife. Shortly after, Muhammad received few convenient revelations:
First, reform adoption from being father / son relationship to just "caretaker". A tradition of over thousands of years in Arabia and other heavenly books with huge implications on children such as missing out on father family title and inheritance - profoundly changing relationships!
"Let your adopted children keep their family names. That is more just in the sight of Allah. But if you do not know their fathers, then they are ˹simply˺ your fellow believers...." Quran 33:5
A few verses later...
"... So when Zaid had accomplished his desire from her (i.e. finished with her), We gave her to you in marriage.... And God's Command must be fulfilled." Quran 33:37
And just like that Allah commands Muhammad to marry Zaynab. And what happened the first night he married her? Nailed her!
Apologist: For context, Zaid and Zaynab were having marital problems and Muhammad was just trying to help. Is this the solution now, when a couple have marital problems, divorce and hand her over to your relatives? Is she a camel? And this martial dispute made its way to the eternal holy book? Allah who knows the future, did not think of banning adoption- say 20 years earlier before Muhammad adopted Zaid as his son? Or, a few years early Muhammad adopted Salim as a son and Allah said nothing!
Later, when Muhammad kept getting women offering themselves to him, and Aisha made a scene, so another verse came 33:50 saying he can marry any woman he wants to exceed the four wives limit. Prompting Aisha's famous words: "...It seems to me that your Lord hastens to satisfy your desire."
Sahih Muslim 1464 a https://sunnah.com/muslim:1464a
Sahih al-Bukhari 4788
https://sunnah.com/bukhari:4788
That is why Muhammad was able to have nine wives and this privilege is only for him!
In 33:53, "Allah" tells visitors Muhammad is shy and busy. Once you have dinner, leave. Wait more, when Muhammad dies, his wives are NEVER allowed to be with another man!
In 33:56, it says Allah and the angels pray
يصلون
on Muhammad. The word used is
على النبي
which you can easily translate anywhere to show you it means exactly that. So embarrassing, the translators had to INVENT different words - that is why you find them scrambling and each translator giving you a completely different translation: Graces, Honours, Blessings, Mercy, Serenity...etc.
And 33:21 Making him the BEST example to follow!The guy who own slaves, women war bounty sex slaves, marries a child, and spends his adult life at war! That's the best example?
Did you notice that all this is in the same chapter? Chapter 33 is this book for Allah or Muhammad?
