Like I said, polygamy in Islam is not for men to just go wild. It comes with its own burden and share of greater responsibilities. If the man is ready to pay that price for his pleasures, what's wrong with it?

But none who aren't jealous of their co-wives. And if not jealousy, there most certainly is competition between them.

Then you don't know men. We only say one wife is enough because don't want to sleep on the sofa and want our breakfast ready in the morning.

One thing's for sure - if there is nothing stopping a man from taking a second wife, he most definitely will. Things such as limited financial means, social stigma and risking harmonious relations with his first wife are some of the reasons why men say they are 'happy' with just one wife.

I would talk about this in more detail but I feel we're skirting the limits of modesty on this discussion as is so all I'll say is: a man can easily get attracted to another woman even if he is fully satisfied with his current wife.

No, it does not address polygamy directly but it does address making something impermissible (no polygamy clause in marriage contracts) which Allah has made permissible (polygamy).

No need to apologize. I understand what you're saying. I'm not married either...and I hope my future wife doesn't see this.
I can barely keep my eyes open and I dont know how you quote parts and reply so im jst going to copy and paste everything you wrote and reply to it that way

Alritee...

"Like I said, polygamy in Islam is not for men to just go wild. It comes with its own burden and share of greater responsibilities. If the man is ready to pay that price for his pleasures, what's wrong with it?"

Nothing, bro. Except that his wife might murder him in sleep. (I'll advise a gun, not a knife sis.)

"But none who aren't jealous of their co-wives. And if not jealousy, there most certainly is competition between them."

Maybe... maybe not. Some are very close friends with them actually. I know.

"I would talk about this in more detail but I feel we're skirting the limits of modesty on this discussion as is so all I'll say is: a man can easily get attracted to another woman even if he is fully satisfied with his current wife. "

No comment. I guess I'll never understand men. And anyway he shouldn't be looking at other women to get attracted to them (like onlyfaith said) and if he does and gets the idea he needs to be with them he should ask his wife to slap him so he'll wake up. and I know the argument will continue ..... so you know what? just go ahead marry all the women in the universe. (not that I encourage such an idea) im jst sure it will not happen to me, inshallah.

"No, it does not address polygamy directly but it does address making something impermissible (no polygamy clause in marriage contracts) which Allah has made permissible (polygamy)."

here we are again. im not making it impermissible btw. im talking reality. so you're still saying a man can go out and get married without his wife's permission?

"... We only say one wife is enough because don't want to sleep on the sofa and want our breakfast ready in the morning."

Then I think they fully deserve to sleep on the sofa and have cold cereal for breakfast

"I'm not married either...and I hope my future wife doesn't see this"

Oh lord

"One thing's for sure - if there is nothing stopping a man from taking a second wife, he most definitely will. Things such as limited financial means, social stigma and risking harmonious relations with his first wife are some of the reasons why men say they are 'happy' with just one wife. "

And you would know.....?
