God didnt alowed poligamy ,if u was reading Bible carefully the whole chapter Kings u could see that Solomon was punished by God for he was sinning with his multiple wifes ,God punished David also for taking Batsheba as his wife when he had numerous wifes . U dont know anything about Bible but u still try to use it against us to legitimate the sin of having 4 wifes .Having more then 1wife is legal brodel !! Sleeping with more then one woman is adultery !! This was not the plan of God otherwise he would make more then one woman for Adam.
If u like poligamy so much i wish that ur husband comes one day to u and says : ." Honey ,I will marry another woman . Be happy for me ! "Then u can taste ur religion on ur own skin and feel how right it is to share ur husband with another woman .

The Quran states "And if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphan­girls, then marry (other) women of your choice, two or three, or four but if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one or (the captives and the slaves) that your right hands possess. That is nearer to prevent you from doing injustice.. " In that time there where alot of battles where alot of men would be killed and left behind widows and orphan.

The only allowable relationship between a man and a woman is through the framework of marriage, which means that, if a man is going to marry four women, then each woman is considered a WIFE. There is no such thing as a wife and three girlfriends that is often alluded to by Orientalists. Therefore, with each wife, the man must do everything that he does to a wife. Any children born from all the wives are considered his children, with the same rights of inheritance, titles, etc. He must provide for each of them, guarantee security and happiness for each of them, and treat them EQUALLY. Therefore, he cannot buy one wife a house and buy apartments for the other three. He either buys all four of them houses, or he buys all four of them apartments. And this equal treatment goes to the children born from each wife. He cannot send the children of one wife to Arabic medium schools while sending the children of the other wives to English medium schools. This is something that Allah (swt) obligated the man to do should he choose to have more than one wife; therefore, it is HARAM for the man to be unequal in this regard or to show any preferential treatment.

Of course, there is one part of the man that will never be equal, which is his heart, and this is natural. The man will naturally incline in his feelings towards one more than the rest.

The number is not the issue; rather, it is the type of relationship that Islam focuses on. With each wife, Islam dictates that the relationship be constructed in a certain way that guarantees justice for both parties. The West make a big deal of a man marrying four wives and treating each one as a wife, with justice and fairness, but the one who has a wife and three girlfriends is considered a ''stud.'' In the case of the former, each woman is elevated to the status of ''wife,'' with all the rights and privileges of a wife. In the case of the latter, the man is cheating on his wife by having extra-marital relationships behind her back, and he is cheating on the girlfriends because he is not bound by any contract to them and has no obligation towards them whatsoever.

One last point. We often hear horror stories of how women are treated in Muslim countries. This has nothing to do with Islam, but is the result of local culture and customs. Islam is not even applied as a system of life anywhere; therefore, you cannot blame Islam because Islam is not there to start with.

Rebuttals to the solutions quite a few the stunning customers presented: a million) "Christianity is guy-made. The bible grew to become into written by making use of guys" an identical ought to be stated of your Islam and Quran. Technically, scholars aka people wrote the Quran. and there is no evidence that Islam is "the word of God". no longer a single one. 2) by way of fact Christians worship Jesus, who isn't God. Jesus won't be God, yet he grew to become into supposedly the son of God. I doubt the Christians "worship" him; they maximum in all probability comprehend him and notice him as a godly discern pondering he grew to become into the son of God. And in case you seem to have a concern with this, why do you hotel to insulting Christianity? imposing your non secular ideals on others is a sin. And so is that "self-righteous" strategies-set of yours. 3) by way of fact there is purely a million God. definite, I agree. and a large number of religions tutor an identical factor; for example, Hinduism teaches there is just one God (even regardless of the undeniable fact that the main important and maximum common false impression by making use of Muslims is that Hinduism has hundreds of God). One God is seen via countless diverse variations/varieties...and in case you dont like this--then dont. yet do no longer bypass around insulting it. finally, in case you think of Islam will dominate the international; your not greater appropriate than Hitler who concept Germany could dominate the international. Nothiing can dominate this international different than GOD. So sufficient with your "international domination" crap. You people seem capability-hungry and thank you to self-righteous on your very own good.

God did not allow multiple wives. Man has free will they chose to marry more then one.

Genesis 2:23 The man said,
"This is now bone of my bones
and flesh of my flesh;
she shall be called 'woman, [j] '
for she was taken out of man."

24 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.


Matthew 19: 4"Haven't you read," he replied, "that at the beginning the Creator 'made them male and female, 5and said, 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh? 6So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate."

The bible also says to follow the laws of the land and this is certainly against the law.

Wrong..Jesus said that God wanted one man one woman..divorce and the rest was due to the hardness of mans heart!
Matthew
4
5 He said in reply, "Have you not read that from the beginning the Creator 'made them male and female'
5
and said, 'For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh'?
6
So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, no human being must separate."

1Kings does not apply to today. Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament. Not sure about the koran, never read it, never plan on reading it. It has nothing for me, only the Holy Bible for me.

If it were not for religion, people could marry any number of people they can afford. Our 'morality' comes from sexually repressed religious zealots who seek to rule the earth with their brand of their religion. Religious books are a reflection of the imagination of those who write them. Prove me wrong.
