Huh what?! What are YOU smoking?? Islam does not require a wife’s consent for a second marriage. I stated it is unfair that the first wife has no say if her husband decides to take on a second wife.** She can either leave him or accept his second marriage.** She does not have a choice to continue her life as is and that to me seems unfair. But again as TLK’s posts have shown, there is a lot of historical context behind this verse. However the bottom line remains…a man does not need his wife’s permission to marry again.

Well, then the Prophet’s Sunnah is just BS I guess, because for his own daughter, she did not leave her husband, nor did she accept the marriage against her feelings. They convinced her husband to drop the proposal. Which the girl and her family has a right to do. Therefore, a girl’s consent is definitely a factor.

Otherwise, Ali (R) would have been completely right in marrying Abu Jahl’s daughter and would have told RAsullullah “sorry, you’re wrong on this, I am just following what Allah wants, and what future cherryontop and TLK think are right” :k:
