Not everyone can be like your mother. Try to understand that. It does not make them bad.
I understand it is a matter of choice and a tough moment for many muslim women. But you cant stop what Allah as destined.

There is wisdom behind everything, as for me I don't "think" I can marry two wives cuz me I no want women palava grin

tintingz: Brotha, shebi this ones are muslim sisters by birth if I tell you about by mum ehn, you will give her salutation. I grew up in a polygamous home

My mum was an ex-anglican christian her father was an elder in church she got married to my dadd a muslim and she converted to Islam went for hajj read english Quran, she also was not expecting a second wife from my dadd thou I was still very young when my dadd married the second wife but she told us everything. She was not happy the first time my dadd discussed it with her but do you believe that she didn't fight nor went for divorce she accepted her but we don't live under same roof.

They are like sisters thou there we be some jealousy thing between them which is normal but have never seen my mum and my step mum fighting she didn't brainwash us to hate the second wife, the sweetest thing about her was that she was the one that raised/took care of the two sons of my step mum they both love my mum like kilode grin but now am missing her she's late and my step mum is the one taken care of us and I love her as a mother. smiley

I can't continue telling you more.

May Allah(swt) continue blessing her, she's indeed a true mother and a true muslimah who understand what Allah has revealed in Quran smiley

Lol.

I can never be attracted to someone who is with somebody else. I can never be the second fiddle.

I can never fight over a man. It is just the way I am. When I like something and it suddenly becomes someone else's, I lose interest. It thus makes it hard for me to understand how some people agree to being the second wife.

I just never see myself in such situations. It shall not be my portion!! AmEN.


My dear sister, i can't and don't even want to imagine it. Will i still love him as much? Can i bear sharing? Can the lady abide by my rules? (yes, my rules, because it's my territory). May Allah just help us anyway.

Just wondering, can you really take it to that level if your man decides to marry a 2nd wife?

When did I say that I am against it.

And what staunch support of Aisha have I shown?

Stop reading meanings that I did not imply. I have supported polygyny in some instances and I have said the concerns I have with those who practice it.



i just do not see how your stand against polygamy does not contradict most of your teachings here. You are sending mixed messages.

on what basis exactly are you against it?

your personal preference or a religious one?

do you think a man who shares your level of commitment to your deen, would not also include polygamy as a requirement of his own deen?

Why not marry an atheist, Deols?

That way, you will be sure that your husband wont marry a second wife kiss kiss kiss

lol....even some few sects of christianity advocate polygamy!


On a serious note, this thread is making me laugh......the "hot" men are afraid of challenge...they feel that some sisters will not bow down to their lust for multiple women... grin grin

Lusting is wrong in Islam, I for one as a Muslim man will not marry more than 1 woman. I have listened to songs by Oumou Sangare in Fulfulde (Fulani language) of Mali and she grew up having to deal with it her mother did not receive the same attention as the other wife.

It is impossible for a man to love 2 or more women equally the same. One will always be your favourite.
