DUBAI (Reuters) - A one-legged Emirati father of 78 is lining up his next two wives in a bid to reach his target of 100 children by 2015, Emirates Today reported on Monday.

Daad Mohammed Murad Abdul Rahman, 60, has already had 15 brides although he has to divorce them as he goes along to remain within the legal limit of four wives at a time.

"In 2015 I will be 68 years old and will have 100 children," the local tabloid quoted Abdul Rahman as saying.

"After that I will stop marrying. I have to have at least three more marriages to hit the century."

The United Arab Emirates newspaper splashed its front page with a picture of Abdul Rahman surrounded by his children, the eldest of whom is 36 years old and the youngest of whom is 20 days old. Two of his current three wives are also pregnant.

Abdul Rahman said his large family lived in 15 houses. He supports them with his military pension and the help of the government of Ajman, one of seven emirates that comprise the UAE, which includes the Gulf trade and tourism hub of Dubai.

2. Is he the new Bob Marley?
Marley was once quoted as saying that "He wanted to have as many childrens as there were rays of the sun". Came close - 33. This guy looks like he's already beat Marley to that goal. :wow:

12. Welfare ho
I read about him earlier this yr. This is sickening and I was criticizing the Duggars w/ their 17 kids *sheesh* :eyes:. But from a Emirati prospective it's helping a country which is over run with more expats than locals. He marries expats cause no Emirati woman would stoop that low. And I bet the wives are younger than his oldest :puke:

He will keep receiving help from the gov't because the Sheikhs look after their people (locals) very well.


Anyways, here is a cool blog about the crazy, funny and sad side of the UAE.
