Mo as "The Perfect Man" is a rather minority type thing. I know many Moslems and don't think I've ever met a one who sought to live a "Mohammad-like life". On the other hand you do hear of such folks in the news.

In fact, most of the Paks (including those of predominantly Arab origin) like to differentiate themselves from the Arabs (including Mo) by noting that some things are clearly cultural, e.g. plural marriage, frequent divorce, the burqa, and so forth.

Plural marraige is a specific right of Moslem men that is called out in the Koran. Whether or not to take advantaqe of the opportunity is a personal choice, but no true Moslem country can have laws against it without being out of step with Sharia and the Koran. The Koran is not open to revision, interpretation or deconstruction by Moslems, it is the complete, final, perfect, word of god as transcribed by Mohammed and dictated in perfection by the angel Gabriel.
