Muslim career women in Britain are choosing to become involved in polygamous relationships because of a lack of suitable men.

Some of them even choosing to become second or third wives to married men, according to the Islamic Sharia Council.

The charity, based in Britain, gives legal guidance to Muslims and has said it is receiving a high number of queries from women struggling to find suitable partners.

Many of the women have also said they would prefer to hold down high-profile jobs rather than look after their husbands.

Taking more than one wife is illegal in the UK but men marry again in a nikah religious ceremony, allowing them to take up to four wives.

Mizan Raja, 35, who organises Muslim marriages around the world, told the Sunday Times, that he has had hundreds of calls in the past six months from women asking about becoming second wives.

Mr Raja said: 'The demand for these relationships is led by the women, not the men. In one generation women have become educated, entrepreneurial and professional.

'The Muslim community is struggling with this, how do you cope with women who wear trousers?'

He said that many Muslim men just wanted a 'homemaker' and to come home to a clean house and a plate of food on the table.

He added the men didn't want the 'headache' of being in a relationship with a professional woman.

It is thought the Muslim women are also actively seeking out married men because they do not want the hassle of having to cook for their husbands after a hard day at work and are quite happy to have part-time relationships.

There are so many surrounding issues with the main issue of the article the topic of polygny should be discussed more especially in the West

A lack of suitable men? You mean a lack of prince charmings that's what. The funny thing is that brothers say the same thing. A lack of suitable women. Ah well. If you want polygamy you can have it. I think brothers have no problem staying single.

Polygyny is allowed for any man who can afford it and feel he can treat the wives equally and fairly.Why should any Muslim have issue with this.

I think more and more sisters are waking up to the realities of life...that there just isn't enough single men available.

I think the perception of what is people's reality on this issue is definitely based on culture and just personal experience

Not related to the Topic. I'm just baffled at the reporting.

Just by interviewing one or two people, they conclude it as the general opinion ie, everyone's opinion. Sample choice is to be blamed.
