Re: Men who are not against polygamy

The issue is not of farz or not. It is allowed. It is part of our faith. It is not something to ridicule or view in the lens of an American or a European. The problem with threads like this is they lack basic grounding in Islamic jurisprudence. The manner in which a second wife can be married in a halal manner is impossible for a man to implement. He must be an angel to fulfill all the requirements.

Funky nails do you have a background in Islamic Jurisprudence? Do you have a basic understanding regarding the rules and procedures a man must overcome to marry a second wife?

This is an interesting response. You accept the concept of polygamy but recognize the impracticality of its application in real world circumstances since human nature makes the equal treatment a near impossibility.

I agree, what Allah has allowed, we mere mortals have no right to challenge the existence of the practice, but I still think the emotional impact is worth considering.

Say a man devotes himself equally in financial and emotional respects to his many wives and he fulfils his obligation - this still doesn’t take into account the emotional turmoil and angst a woman experiences because she shares her husband with other women. My point is, where do her feelings come into play?
