OK I am going to a wedding in July (my g-friends older sister) and I have been asked to accompany their mother, as she is divorced and the father will also be attending with his new wife.

I have been advised that the mother and father will be polite to each other, but no more than that (they haven'r laid eyes on each other in 18 years). However, the mother and new wife have a history of hostile encounters where the new wife basically provokes the mother, often leading to actual fighting.

I've been asked to lend moral support in this situation and to step in if things get ugly. Whilst it is doubtful anything will happen (happy day and all that), how should I break up any violence?

Whilst I am 'on the side' of the mother I do not want to get too physical as they are obviously both ladies (and the mother is now frail) but at the same time I do not want either getting hurt- either by each other or myself!

Ideas?

when unable to answer questions based on reason muslims always come up with the same old boring lie that millions of western women are converting to islam like bees attracted towards honey. while only an insane person will believe this lie, however i have a question for muslims,
why are muslims hell bent on talking about converts? islam to me is the only religion that has gone mad about converting others. to me a religion that is hell bent on converting others has no truth in it at all. its based on fear of dying out and thats why they worry about converts.
to me allah sounds a weak god. he is afraid that islam will die and so he is hell bent on converts.
hahahahahahahhahah
am i right?

I've never understood why people make payments on something that they don't yet own when they could essentially do the same thing in a savings account and then just buy the item when they've saved enough.

Muhummed is the most successful of all Prophets and religious personalities.
----Encyclopedia Britannica
I have studied him - the wonderful man - and in my opinion far from being an anti-Christ he must be called the saviour of humanity.
------------George Bernard Shaw in "The Genuine Islam"
Head of the State as well as the Church, he was Caesar and Pope in one; but, he was Pope without the Pope's pretensions, and Caesar without the legions of Caesar, without a standing army, without a bodyguard, without a police force, without a fixed revenue. If ever a man had the right to say that he ruled by a right divine, it was Muhummed, for he had all the powers without their supports. He cared not for the dressings of power. The simplicity of his private life was in keeping with his public life.
------------------Rev. R. Bosworth-Smith

America has always been in wars which never or mostly where not their own like:
The War of 1812; Mexican-American War; The Civil War; The Spanish-American War; World War I & II; The Korean War; Vietnam War; Desert Storm; and many more,
Even created Osama Bin Laden...and I hold them responsible for creating a man who eventually has taken to bombing America...
Well it is known fact that America has not sufficent proof to hold him responsible for 9/11 attack....and bombing Afganistan to fight terror...who gave them the right.....and where is osama even after all these years and now Iraq...What do they want...They are the one who have misrepresented the Islam and fanned the hatred against them..
Any comments are welcome

religions i believe are not compatiable with modern science. for example religions claim that homosexuality is wrong, while science has proven that homosexuality is a scientific truth. Religions talk about creation but modern science has discovered that we humans carry 97% of the chimp gene. I can go on and on , but my question is why cant religions welcome and incorporate scientific ideas in to their doctrines. ( while christians, jews, buddhists, hindus and zorastrians have welcomed some sort of modern scientific ideas and mixed them with their religious views, sadly muslims have not even taken this first step)

Sometimes it does seem so, since their wealthy people get away with so much! They must have God on their good side, or some very good "influences" up there. I have met many Israelies however, that do not agree with their Government's policies on war. My respects to them.

Is it a man and wife's duty to have children?
I ask because I have a friend who's husband suddently tells her that he will not have children with her. Isn't this against Muslim law?
Sorry for my ignorance, and thank you for your answers.

Misyar seems like a new practice among Muslims and especially Salafi/Wahbi people or modern Muslim in various parts of the world.

I need to check what support does it have in Quran?

Also:
Isn't it a kind of legal / religious provision for men / women [(those are not rich (Ghani as condition set in Quran 24/33 Sura Noor Ayah 33) for getting married easily and prevent themselves from committing sin of social meetings (dating) or intimate relation?

I need to know what benefits does it offer to women, or it is just for the benefit of men only?

Is it a must for them to live in separate houses or can they live together?
What are other conditions (balance between rights and responsibilities of each other)?

Is it for second wife only or can any one find first wife under this provision?
