Re: To those women who would want a divorce just because their husband takes another
It is the oldest practice of muslims to use AAYETS of hte HOLY QURAN as their justifications…You know what QURAN is a “MUKAMMAL ZABETA E HAYAT” and its not for a century and not for a decade…Each and every AAYAT or i must say WORD in it is valid and applicable till the day of Judgement…So there is no point for anyone to say that it was applicable there and not here…yes this HOLY SURA came after the battle of UHAD but it doesn’t mean its teachings are just for after battle type of circumstances because its not stated in SURA ( in that case first WAHI on MUHAMMAD S.A.W was “IQRA BISMI RABBI KAL LAZI KHALAQ” and it came in a DAUUR of JAHILIAt now in your point of view will the seeking for knowledge was just for the DAUUR of JAHILIAt) …and it clearly states “MARRY WOMEN OF YOUR CHOICE” and there was nothing written about marrying women only in after war type circumstances otherwise in normal circumstances you just have to have a single wife…And apart from that do you know how many WIVES our HOLY PROPHET (S.A.W) had? (with this question i am not NAUZUBILLAH resembling anyone with the HOLY PROPHET (S.A.W) because he is the only one inded but what i am trying to say as HE S.A.W is the role model for us thats what brought this question out and now i know many will say role model for just this type of thing but me saying him S.A.W as a role model regarding this matter doesn’t deny the fact that he is a role model in every walk of life so why not accept every thing he do is the best way of living a life…Now what more i can eloborate…still ppl cant understand then GOD HELP YOU…There are FATWAAS on this issue if you want to see watch cricketer SOHAIL tanveer second marriage scandal where BENOORIYA town MUFTI comments on it in the light of ISLAM and also discuss the statement of SURA NISA you stated above…Well i tried to tell you above what he was saying but you can see with your own eyes and there were two modern ladies saying exactly like that it was 1400 yrs ago this and that (ASTAGHFIRULLAH)
So lady, every word in our HOLY QURAN is written forever not for a situation or circumstance or WAKEYA and there is always a reason behind it…For example female population in the world is much higher than the male population and similarly the death rate of males is much higher than the females…This gives reason that why ISLAM permitted second marriages (OFFcourse all wifely rights reserved to first wife)…We can also take the example of PAkistan if half of the married man with one wife marry another woman and their first wives calmly take this rightfull act then there will be no sister of mine being unmarried and waiting for her lifetime to get married…
MAY ALLAH BLESS US ALL
