olawole oladipo: Dear Colleagues, I'm sure that you have not told us 'the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth'. However, your rant, ..."OR to tell her to leave my brother's house?" is unbelievable garbage! You want to evict her from her home? This is simply adding insult to her injury. Repent, buddy, repent! Shikena. God bless Nigeria. |

This issue is a very critical one that has to be treated with caution. I understand the woman's situation as it is human to have such desire 4 intimacy or som1 with whom she can 'share' her feelings, considering the age she got married. I will advice u not to be far from her as she needs ur company, only that u must know ur limit and avoid being together alone behind a closed door. Render her financial help within ur ability and link her up with any single, widower or divorcee friend of urs that may show interest. I would have advised u marry her, but it is against ur belief. u must be careful because the aftermath of marrying may go far beyond what u can see at the moment. |

This man's dilemma shows that the practice of polygamy sometimes has a human face. If he marries the woman both the woman and her children will be better of. Polygamy has been with us since creation and will never go away. This man should marry the woman if he so desires since the woman is interested in him. There's too much hypocrisy about polygamy - the man preaching one-wife-only would often have a wife and be having numerous affairs with other women! What do we call that? 6 Likes |

maclatunji: Eyah. If you were a Muslim, I would have said consider marrying her. She wants a man and has set her eyes on you. No woman would like a co-wife so I understand your wife's position too.Tough call indeed...your view is quite myopic and comic(maybe due to ur religious beliefs). Why should marrying your ELDER BROTHER'S WIFE be a tough call? What were you thinking? Can't you set her on a date with one of your friends you can comfortably say can help her from her 'misery'? Must it be you?! Must it be you that would shoulder all your 'brother's responsibilities' up to 'bedroom ones'? So kind of you...but stewwwpeedd. 1 Like |

gbosaa: In conclusion, as a christian I don't want to cheat my own "housewife" or look like I'm commiting adultery or fornication. What Can I do? to marry her, OR to tell her to leave my brother's house to go and marry another person with five children. You are very correct. Its not about the woman, its about the house, he sees his brothers house as his. And I assume he has taken over most of his brothers cash. Why is he thinking of sending a woman with 5 kids out of her husbands house. So for ur mind its either u send her out of the house and take it fully or marry her to take ownership. Becareful how u treat that widow before GOD vex for u. |

Yield: You've a good heart, Sir. Keep it up. I don't really know what to advice right now ...whether you should marry her or not. Only you can really decide what's best anyway. But definately, don't stop helping and caring for her and don't avoid her like the poster above me said. You're both adults and shouldn't resort to avoiding her. Communicate.. Yield, the reason I actually said that is for him to avoid being tempted to bring forth a child with her. Besides he did mention he had a wife. |
Re: Can I Marry My Senior Brother's Wife? by Legalplayerz: 10:01pm On Mar 07, 2013 |
Kinda complicated, but don't stop helping her out. Forget about marrying her, cos it's only gonna make things worse for your own family. Just take care of her and the kids. |

What Can I do? to marry her, OR to tell her to leave my brother's house to go and marry another person with five children. You are bloody MUGU, did he say he wanted to evict them from the house? He say if she wants to remarry she could leave the house and go. Do you expect her to marry a man and bring him to stay in that house. I wonder why some you don't use your brains at all. After all to whom brain is given at least small sense is expected. Back to you jare poster, I strongly advice that you don't marry her. in fact it will be advisable to keep your distance from her but not your care. If she wants to remarry, she is free to do that while the children can continue to stay in the house and be taken care of. Don't let her break your home. |

Re: Can I Marry My Senior Brother's Wife? by coolheed: 10:13pm On Mar 07, 2013 |
This is what I can call a 'DILEMMA' and the concerns I have is that how many bachelors (even widowers) will be willing to marry a widow of 5 children? Even widowers are looking for spinsters (or at best virgins). It is not funny, it is reality. In Islam, it is totally ACCEPTABLE to marry your late brother's wife and we are not apologetic about this in as much as there is mutual consent. Just as Maclatunji advised, one of the options would have been for you to marry her but this has pros and cons which needs to be carefully weighed before diving into. Because, you are a Christian, I guess the practice is monogamy and therefore you must leave her to get another person to marry so you are out of her re-marriage equation. Albeit though, there are some things that you MUST take caution over, if you don't want to regret. 1. Do not be intimate with this woman because she may be desperate to have you. I don't know how decent she is and at the same time I don't know what her melting point is because she is not used to being lonely and she is in love with your family. Remember "ADULTERY is EVIL which open doors to greater EVILS"; 2. Don't abandon the responsibility of providing for her and her children; 3. Visit her only in company of your wife as this will create a shield to avoid any unholy/ugly scene; and 4. Pray and fast for God's guidance. All the best. 3 Likes |

There's too much hypocrisy about polygamy - the man preaching one-wife-only would often have a wife and be having numerous affairs with other women! What do we call that? You are right. However, there has to be a lot of caution. I would prefer if the widow waived most of the rights a typical second wife would demand be met and be satisfied with the man's care and a reasonable amount of affection that can keep her focused on her 5 children who are her primary constituency. She keeps the house with her kids and has the man's ear when she needs it. So far, I think she has been decent, let us hope things work out well. The man should never sleep with her if he has not married her. That would be a betrayal of his own family, neices and nephews and his late brother. If he marries her, he can go ahead. His own wife will be very upset if she is clingy but if she is a wise woman won't object overly and only demand that her position and that of her kids be respected. |

Re: Can I Marry My Senior Brother's Wife? by maclatunji: 10:50pm On Mar 07, 2013 |
sholay2011: Hahaha, you do think you are intelligent. This case is quite unique. If the lady had like 3 kids, we could say, they can be split into 2. This man takes charge of 2 and the woman cares for one and look for a new husband that will accept her. However with 5 children, that is a whole lifetime of care and for some of us sex is not just had freely, it should be had within marriage, that is what decent people do (no apologies). |
Re: Can I Marry My Senior Brother's Wife? by maclatunji: 10:54pm On Mar 07, 2013 |
stpat1: Who would take care of the kids? Those kids are now his responsibility and that of other siblings if he has any independent of their relationship with their mother. |
Re: Can I Marry My Senior Brother's Wife? by emiye(m): 10:56pm On Mar 07, 2013 |
Please dont marry her, it is normal for her to feel lonely and possibly h.o.r.ny, at times like this,if you are not careful, you can make certain mistakes in the name of pity. Try and see her often in the presence of your wife. In fact let your wife take a greater friendship role with her. At 39 years, the widow can survive, taking solace in the five lovely kids she has. 1 Like |
Re: Can I Marry My Senior Brother's Wife? by Originalsly: 10:57pm On Mar 07, 2013 |
Bro...I think you are jumping to conclusion. You said she started talking to you often after the burial. She no longer has a husband, a companion, a friend nor someone to help her get over the loss. You are the person she is comfortable with, the person to heal her emotional wounds. I think for that reason she said it is not only about money.Also talking on the fone is not as consoling to her as meeting face to face.She may be feeling lonely and abandoned since you don't visit her. I guess with this in mind she is making a desperate plea since with five children she can't even consider finding someone to marry and comfort her. I think you should arrange to spend a weekend with her and at least...find out her position instead of jumping to conclusion. If it is what you fear then you can softly tell her you understand but can't entertain the thought since you are committed to your hmmm...wife...ehmmm..."housewife"...whatever. |
