The question was to personalise it and not give answers on others behalf. If your reluctant it shows there are issues behind your suppport. The sunnah teaches us that imaan is not complete until a person would want for his brother what he wants for himself. If you wouldn't want your own daughter in such a situation, then wishing it upon the daughters of others is problematic.
what you on about?

i dont wish being a second wife on anyone except those who wish to be a second wife.

if someone does not want to be a second wife then that is entirely their choice.

I do not see anyone either religious or jahil who would give his daughter to be someones midday cooker 2nd wife. Unless if the person was such a religious blessing and a relationship with him would in anycase have spiritual significance in establishing geneological connection. The only person otherwise who would be subject to agree would be the people of poverty who are forced into giving their daughter, as in the case of gulf Arab frauds preying on poor young women in foreign countries as we see in plenty of cases, because these poor people are not knowledgable and sharp enough to recognise or poverty has forced them to it.
people marry for all sorts of reasons. who are you to judge them on their reason for marriage if they are not going against Allah's hukam?

And before ascribing it to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,

1) note that it was a custom even before the prophet
2) slavery was also a custom, so you should infact support it today and promote slavery as per your criteria
3) do clarify if you have any basis to think that they had the intention of marrying multiple women to merely cook their midday meals.
1) so was wearing clothes
2) we are talking about marriage, not slavery.
3) is it haram for someone to marry for his midday meals as long as he fulfills all his obligations to his wife?


And when you quote the hadith of tirmidhi, its like quoting hadith on obedience to parents and apply it in forcing women to get married or using it to pressure women to get married to someone irreligious. I.e your misplacing the hadith and intending by it what was not intended in the text. And it is indeed contridictory as the sunnah is to choose a partner based on his/her religious piety or else be ruined. While what is being promoted here is to choose a partner based on who would be ready to be a midday cooker wife.
do you really think a pious brother such as 'not known' would get married to someone who will ruin his akhirah, but be able to make nice biryani? why cant he marry someone who can make nice biryani and ALSO be a good muslimah?
