Why did the Prophet Muhammad SAW marry Hafsah Bint Umar?
We don't know, because he never told anyone. All we can do is study the facts and look at theories.
(1) One theory is that Mohammed wanted to strengthen his ties to her father Umar. However, Umar was already Mohammed's second-best friend, so there was no real need for Mohammed to do this - especially as he didn't have enough money to support the two wives whom he already had.
(2) Another theory is that Mohammed wanted to give a home to a widow who would otherwise be destitute, hoping this would set a good example and encourage other men to do the same. However, Mohammed married Hafsa in early 625, when only 14 men out of a total of over 300 had died. Since some men were already polygamous, and women often died in childbirth, it doesn't sound as if there was a serious shortage of eligible men. Hafsa was certainly not destitute, as her father was still alive.
(3) A third theory is that Hafsa was beautiful. She was about 19, whereas Mohammed's other wives were 11 and over 40 respectively, so perhaps Mohammed just fancied her. Abu Bakr liked her too, and Mohammed warned him that he wanted Hafsa for himself.
(4) It is certain that Hafsa was intelligent. She would have made a very good teacher. So yet another theory is that Mohammed recognised her as a person who would help him spread Islam.
