greatness tab hoti hai jab insaan kisi dil-aziz cheez ko dil say na bolay takeh doosray khush rahein.
but according to whatever is happening on the forum … men havent reallly rejected the idea of polygamy .. but instead trying to prove that it is ok, and that women should be ok with it too. so jis cheez ko dakhal-andaaz kiya he nahi … aur jis ki wajah say puray forum per aap logoun ka dil phoota ja raha hai … wahan greatness ki to baat he nahi ati.
but on the contrary … like reha already said … you’re not doing anybody any favors by projecting yourself as great. you wana do it? go right ahead. greatness to phir tab hogi jab un do ya chaar k baad aapka qeema niklay ga.
We would accept it if it was being used properly. Most of the time when single and easily-excitable men talk about four wives…they remind you of little pubescent boys. “OMG FOUR WIVES!!! LIKE TOTALLY WOW!!!”
according to my question, it is not whether it is allowed by religion or not … but that those who mostly practice this right, don’t practice it correctly … that most such cases are a result of extra-marital affairs, marrying your ex-love after being forced into some family marriage, and the sort … so why should these people talk about their right through a religious pov when their is nothing religious about their action.
i already pointed out in the beginning that this thread does not refer to those who go through this because of valid reasons.
On a more serious note, I’ve met only a few people who actually practice it. I haven’t carried out any investigation into how well they’re doing it (i.e. carrying out their duties related to it). However, I won’t automatically assume they’re doing something wrong.
Like I said, I don’t know the details. So unless I have proof of the opposite, I’m going to go with the innocent until proven guilty approach (and not assume that they’re at fault without having evidence of it). Of what I do know of the people whom I know are practicing it, they are the religious type, so I would expect that they would care about fulfilling their religious duties in the matter.
