After that he married to Şevde, Aişe, Hafsa, Zeyneb binti Huzeyme, Ümme Seleme, Zeyneb binti Cahs, Cuveryriye, Safiye, Ümmü Habibe, Mariye, Meymune and Reyhane. The marriages he made are due to social and political reasons. Prophet Mohemmed's third wife Aİşe is Ebubekir's daughter. She was the one whom prophet Mohemmed loved the best after Hatice. Aişe is different from his other wives and is more educated. When Ayşe was 18 or 28 prophet Mohemmed died so she became widow. She wasn't mixed up with politics till the period of Khalif Osman, but she had to join politics because of some of the unfair treatments, done against her. Aişe lived in Mekke when Khalif Osman was killed. She was against the Caliphate of Ali together with Zubeyr and Talha and wanted the revenge of Osman and consisted a group. Ali consisted a group of army, too. Both groups met in a place around persion Gulf but their aim was not to fiht. Justas they were about to hav© a peace agremem with the help of envoys the war broke out with the struggles of Sebeiyye group. People died from both groups. This war is called Cemel. Ali won the war. Aişe was very sorry for this and decided not to deal with politics after that. Key works: Hz. Aişe, Politics, Hz. Muhammed.
