Re: Very disturbing
1)Again, I stand by my word and say there is absolutely nothing wrong in what Rasulullah (S.A.W) did. Islam does NOT need updates and changes to suit YOUR liking. It is what it is and will never need any changes, period. You don't seem to be able to comprehend the simple concept that your daughter in law and the wife of your adopted son are NOT the same thing.
2)Islamic laws on adoption and polygamy are fine the way they are. There is nothing to rectify in Islam, but only in ourselves. If you don't want to practice polygamy, then don't practice it yourself. That's your choice. You have no right to tell anyone else to do it or not to do it.
However, if you ask people if they would be willing to marry multiple wives, you'll see a handful who would. I know a handful who have, and yet others who are planning/considering.
And others I know, even though they personally wouldn't, don't mind others doing so. So does that mean it's something right? By your logic of if people will be ready do it/not ready to do it, it seems like it is, right? So will you now admit that it is ok, because people are doing and people are accepting of those doing it?
However, none of that is necessary to convince me. If Allah says it's ok, it's ok. It doesn't matter what you or anybody else says after that.
3)If Quran says something is ok, it's ok whether you like it or not. If Quran says it's ok to marry your adopted son's ex wife, it's ok. If you don't like it, simply don't do it yourself. That's all you can do about it, nothing more.
The people saying who they would personally not do it does not make it wrong, not in the least. That's the exact same situation as people who would only marry only their own caste or what not. It's a personal choice and that's it. Nothing more, nothing else. There would be no sin in marrying outside their caste, but they exclude certain people out of personal choice, which may be affected by other factors such as social pressure etc.
Allah can do anything He pleases. He is not at all vulnerable to His creation. He doesn't need us, we need Him. Make no mistake, He has been protecting Islam and He will continue to do so. He created everything, and He knows His creation better than anyone else.
^ Your approach is very logical and convincing.
