[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ married fifteen women; six of them were from the Quraysh, one from the allies of the Quraysh, seven from the Arab women, and one from the Children of Israel. He did not marry more than one woman during the time of ignorance (before Islam), except for one. Abu Ubayda Ma'mar Ibn Al-Muthanna disagreed with them, and his saying, may Allah have mercy on him, is closer to the truth. Al-Dhahabi did not mention it in the summary.
