Re: Having Four Wives
Aside from the usual tautology from the women, it is clear that polygamy is allowed in the koran, been practiced since antiquity in Islamic countries and will be so in the future.
read these verses from the QURAN:
"If you fear lest you may not be perfectly equitable in treating more than one wife, then you shall be content with one." (4:3) **
**"You cannot be equitable in a polygamous relationship, no matter how hard you try." (4:129)
one verse is an explanation of the other....it says you can only marry if you treat them equal but you cant treat them equal....HENCE only marry one.
Its easy for me to understand....but then again we all have different levels of IQ.
