ThiefOfHearts (f) I wonder what you represent. the aggrieved women? Your reply isnt a smart one at all. Who is controlling who. You claim civilised, modern woman but the only thing u cld think of other women is as controlled by random men. |

nnw niger the problem with many of u is dat u quote the Qur'an without avn an understanding of it. I told coogar yesterday to get tafsir ibn kathir. reading that would give u an interpretation to what you take of the Qur'an. Many of you only copy and paste from certain sites but u wld be responsible for urself on d day of judgement. BTW, av u heard that the prophet would help his wives with their house chores? and dat he asked that you give more respect to your mother even than your father and that he said d best of men are those who are best to their wives? He also said the paradise of a child lies at the feet of his mother He used to spend so much time playing with his family these are a few of the good things I can remeber now. . If your aim is forever to criticise, you will never c d light of God. |

Yet another informative thread degenerates into a superiority contest. CHOICE is the key word here. Everyone is entitled to their own choice so long they are comfortable with it |

fxtopedia:Where is the contradiction? My parents chose polygamy and they(and we are) are happy with it, and I want to choose monogamy and still be happy. Where is the contradiction/ Similitude: My brother went to Unilag and he is satisfied with it, does that mean I should also go for Unilag? I can still go to UI and be happy. They are not mutually exclusive. My family being happy under polygamy doesn't mean I will not be happy with monogamy. And honestly, the more I read some Muslims give blanket criticism of polygamy, the more it becomes attractive to me. |

Hey Deols, " just a few good things Muhammed did" according to you. Well, all I did was quote directly from the Quran. I don't see the reason whatsoever for the anger. No man is that equiped with so many women. Look at the result= BOKO HARAM |

Jarus: You are a product of polygamous home and there is no doubt that the major players can work amicably and make life easy for all the members but what you fail to address is the emotional impact of polygamy on the women involved. How did wife no 1 feel about her husband bringing in wife no 2 and so on?. I am sure you don't have the answer because you can't speak for them but I assure you that one must be disgruntled by that arrangement at a point in her marital life. Are muslim women wired different emotionally from Christian, Hindu, pagan, etc women?. Where is the jealousy ratio?. How about finances because majority of the polygamist men in Nigeria are in financial comatose but they manage to "herd" their harem. As a matter of fact, it is the women who toil to provide food for them. Which makes me wonder whether these muslim men marry multiple wives to insure they will always have food on their table till the end of time. He will be getting nicer things, quality food, etc from the richer wife while the broke wives live in penury with their children. |
Re: Muslim Women & Polygamy: Would You Tolerate A 2nd Wife? by somegirl1: 12:20pm On Nov 01, 2011 |
I'm amazed that some people can refer to a polygamist as faithful besides how do u know the other wives don't have STIs before or after marriage. There's no gaurantee that the other women will be faithful to ur husband. |

i am not really sure why there is a need to bring Islam or religion into it . polygamy was not prohibited by Jehovah at any point in the Bible people who claim to be christians have little knowledge of its history or scripture. PLEASE PRODUCE A SCRIPTURE FROM THE BIBLE THAT FORBIDS POLYGAMY it is on record that Solomon the Wisest man ever had a few wives as did his father David polygamy is a fundamental part of Yoruba life as recognized in our traditional inheritance laws ditto for the Igbos, Binis and virtually ALL african groups . in fact what is UNAFRICAN is an injunction to monogamy |

seems d romance section is getting boring.*apologies to jaybee* lol ROmance faithfuls are trooping to the Islam for Muslim section. they seem to love anything woman and man. MAny of them avnt been faithful to their own psyches and are here talking faithfulness.

deols: i can only speak for myself. and i was particularly speaking about the discussion we both had. did i ever insult you? did i ever claim my faith is better than yours? BetaThings: if you calling you a man is an abuse then you deserved to be abused! BetaThings: i am not making jest of islam, you bigot! christians are not provocative at least not on this thread until you came here with your hollow soundbites! BetaThings: hilarious! speak for yourself, don't speak for others. you want it does not mean others do and their faith is as strong as yours or perhaps more. BetaThings: this is because the wearing of hijab has been used to perpetrate mass murders in various acts of terrorism. i support the french authorities. it was allowed before now but when terrorists used hijabs to mask their evil acts, what do u suggest? BetaThings: homosexuality is perverse. church of england cannot speak for everybody. and not all the churches in england will marry people of the same s[b]e[/b]x. if you don't know, grab a book. BetaThings: the op became defensive only after you came here acting like a battle-ready jihadist! and stop saying your christian folks - i came here to have a discussion, not as a christian to convert you.
lockerbie 9/11 munich 1972 those events led to the war on terrorism. deal with it.
casualties of war. when 2 elephants clash, the grass suffer.
it would surprise you.
well muslims see them as infidels and persecute their citizens. surely, you must have seen the videos of islamists beheading americans. so how do you expect them to take it?
for the umpteenth time, i didn't come here to ridicule anyone. i came here to learn.
and you got this theory from where? you make me laugh when you come up with misguided rants such as this one.
really? i am hearing this for the first time.
yes, just like teenage girls have not been complaining to the media about forced marriages etc. you must really think you are talking to dolts.
am i being paid to patronise? why should i patronise a faceless being?
because women are naturally jealous - the op's question is a very brilliant question.
sarah did that for abraham! but the other woman was a slave. in this day n age, there's no slavery. any woman married to your husband has as much as right as you have and it gets complicated. no polygamous setting is conflict free.
jarus is married, spinsters are unmarried. if you cannot see the difference - go to specsavers! |

Islam and the haters, It was stated in the glorious Qur’an the wholly part of polygamy and what is all about, I don’t think either you or your cohorts would have confidence of discouraging what has been decreed by Allah s.w.t. I personally prepare to have four wives than to engaged in fallowing others possession. Living with Christians folks at the same compound tells me a lot about their characters which doesn't need to be expose here, Emeka if you are sincere enough could you tell me that your husband is managing you alone? Wouldn’t he helping himself outdoor,in your absent or for his own personal desire? Please help in answering these Questions. |

deols: Dumb one.KANO IS ONE OF THE CORE MUSLIM STATES. in stats we take a rep figure and make postulates not so? KANO? Yes kano is a seat in islam a known one in nigeria. the freedom here isnt there and sharia is clear cut. you dont drink beer any how or move it. i have seen them burn NB trailer conveying same late in the night(in a bid to avoid the extremists). in kano you dont wear anything to anywhere or play any kind of music anywhere not sabon gari. except this has changed now. i was there late 2008. |
Re: Muslim Women & Polygamy: Would You Tolerate A 2nd Wife? by deols(f): 1:58pm On Nov 01, 2011 |
aloy/emeka: this is what ignornce does to the thinking capability. You started the thread well. and u cld just av continued asking questions. by now, u would av bn enlightened enough. There is a difference between what Islam stipulates and what people practice. In fact, yoruba Muslims are polygamous due to cultural influence more than religious. Polygamy should be very hard to practice, if according to Islam. [size=20pt]*In Islam, a polygamous man must share his resources equally among the wives *His time must be shared too- a timetable for the nights he spends wv dem(call dat wat u may) *A man is not to marry at all, if he wldnt be able to provide sustenance for himself and his family *when the children reach the age of seven, boys are to be separated from girls- now, dat makes at least three rooms for a monogamous man to provide. *If he is thinking of anoda wife, he must av had double dat resource to provide for them. *Now, add d economic situation of d world- good schools, good nutrition and all of that [/size] These only call attention to the fact that, if Muslim men practice it well,, and Muslim women follow Islam well(total submission to the will of Allah), all d problems u attribute to polygamy would not be there. In fact, others would be willing to be Muslims. Muslims themselves need Islamic education. How many pple even go to ile keu anymore? |

@Aloy/Emeka: « #222 on: Today at 01:01:30 AM » [Quote]Quote from: Sweetnecta on Yesterday at 07:24:13 PM @Frosbel: « #166 on: Today at 07:05:43 PM »The rule of the game changes when you die. Enjoyment is heightened if you receive the Mercy of God. Punish will be heightened for those who are in difficulty of fire [the worst kind of life on earth is really paradise compared to the lives of the people in Hell]. Imagine what comfort and security were to a baby in mother's tummy until he comes out and see how vast, the collage of worldly beauty is; the sight and sound, whereas mother's tummy is just what it is; water world. Paradise is better than earth, if the best of earth is made to take the basic quality of mother's tummy. You can see why the best is yet to come for Muslims. [b]More like enjoyment is heightened for only muslim men because they will each have access to 72 virgins [/b]while the muslim women who make heaven will be roasting because they lost their virginity on earth. Did Allah make plans on how non virgin muslim women in heaven will achieve 5exual ecstasy?.[Quote]Every earthly wife who reached Islamic PARADISE will be better than any created being [houri] and may even be better than the whole 72 that you listed and then some more. Heaven is different from Paradise. You and yours end up in heaven [there are 7 heavens; so which one is yours?]. Muslim women end up in Paradise. People in paradise are not "roasted", probably toasted by their earthly husband, or the one chosen [made] for them. Example; Mary the mother of Jesus and Asia, the wife of tyrannical Pharaoh shall be wives of the messenger [as]. A woman who made Paradise while earthly husband is in heaven [HELLISH Part] will have a husband of her own choice. A woman who was married to earthly husbands who also are in Paradise will have the choice from them, InshaAllah. Everyone is created anew. Everyone in PARADISE is new each time of encounter. When Allah forgives, it is complete forgiveness as if one never was a sinner. Everything is overlooked, wiped off the record. If you are a woman, Aloy/Emeka, I have to inform you that your heaven has not enjoyment. You don't even eat. Your human senses are dulled out. If you are a man, there will never be any sex for you, even drinking cold beverages in forbidden you, though you are sweating. The ghetto part of afterlife is heaven that is not Paradise; the suffer in such a non paradise heaven. Most non muslims are getting theirs here because they know none of it is waiting for them afterlife.[/quote][/quote] |

@Davidylan: « #208 on: Yesterday at 11:29:36 PM » [Quote]Quote from: Jarus on Yesterday at 08:48:10 PM Naturally, a woman will find discomfiting his husband marrying another wife. This is natural and I think pardonable but a Muslim woman should try to suppress it and avoid overreacting. She should, with wisdom, try to convince the husband that taking more than 1 wife is optional not mandatory and by staying monogamous, he has not breached any Islamic principle, and she should be careful here not to see polygamy as bad, which it is not. If her persuasion fails, let her recognize the fact that Allah that permits polygamy knows us more than ourselves and we have to respect his injunctions. He should not go mad at her husband nor make the house hot. If she comports herself well(it's hard naturally) she will not lose anything. I am from a polygamous family and though Hajia Jarus must not hear this(and she comes to NL once in a while. Lol) it's never say never, although no short to medium term plans to do 2. allah must not care so much for women at all. So he knows it is natural for his women that he claimed to have created to hate a family situation he allows?[/Quote]You hate being married or are you or you are too poor to? But Yahweh also created being hung on a tree. You hate it or you love to experience it? Most christians are waiting for Rapture as if jehovah didn't create death. They hate dying and wish to escape it through the never shall happen rapture. You, sir, hates many things that Jehovah created, including family situations; marriage for common folks and being unmarried when you finally have the spine to do it, opposing the unmarried Jesus. From my siblings born of my other mothers are some of my best friends. My mother remains close friend with the surviving co-wives. |

^^^^^So Da Doctor never heard of an ever rotating spin wheel of one wife that keeps having a different face of wife, every few years? Donald Trump and gang of easy does it it women man. So Da Doctor never heard of a one wife man that the wife is somewhat unhappy because the husband in always unzipped with other women? Hello Bill Clinton. There are all kinds of people and marriages. Catholics get fight to get divorce and marry another wife. Senator Alfonso Damalto; bon journo. just because you do not have enough kashogi to be husband of more than 1 wife, and you dont any woman who is a realist is not the reason to think every polygamy relationship is a disaster. Jacob did it, if you think that Abraham failed. Issac with one wife, Rebecca failed miserably; talk about take the enemy of yourself and that of your son for your wife and his mother. |
