Re: Men who are not against polygamy [merged]
Before quoting me and jumping to conclusions, Inconclast…why don’t you take a look at the part of Samb’s post which I HIGHLIGHTED and was LOL’ing about. It’s easier to say that you advocate polygamy that you support it…but Samb is right…it’s much harder to swallow when one’s own mother or sister or daughter is confronted with this situation. Even when something is allowed…even when the intentions behind a decision may be noble…the emotional consequences that would result for oneself and others that would be directly affected…can’t be ignored. That’s just common sense. Even Allah says that justice can’t be done among more multiple wives. So, while He has allowed polygamy…He’s also saying that it ain’t easy…that the consequences of polygamy need to be considered. Many things are easier said than done.
