The Misuse Of Polygamy The Corruption Of Women

Many bodies back they apprehend of Muslims, or the adoration of Islam automatically anticipate of this adoration as a acceptance that sponsors corruption of women through bedmate relationships. In addition, abounding Muslim men accept not helped in creating this apocryphal acumen "That Islam is an calumniating adoration adjoin women." Since I accept become a Muslim abounding bodies accept appear to me, jokingly, asking: "When am I activity to get 15 wives". Abounding Muslim men, decidedly in the East, accept taken to entering into assorted marriages as admitting this is article allowable in the adoration of Islam. As I apprehend my Angelic Qur'an I accept as of yet to acquisition absolution for this act. The admonition to accept assorted wives is mentioned in The Angelic Qur'an alone once. And in this instance it is mentioned in a ambience that doesn't accord any man the alternative to aloof booty wives for the account of it

The admonition for polygamy is mentioned in Sura(chapter) 4 of The Angelic Qur'an alleged Al-Nisa(The Woman), verses 1-3. This affiliate of the Angelic Qur'an opens with a command from ALLAH to accumulate your duties him and to anniversary other(Husband and wife):

"O people, accumulate your assignment to your Lord, Who created you from a distinct actuality and created its acquaintance of the aforementioned (kind), and advance from these two abounding men and women. And accumulate your assignment to Allah, by whom you appeal one of addition (your rights), and (to) the ties of relationship. Surely Allah is anytime a Watcher over you." (Holy Qur'an 4:1) The Qur'an back it was appear over 1400 years ago to the Prophet Muhammad(Peace be aloft him) fatigued the absoluteness of God in acknowledgment to the agnostic behavior accepted in Arabia. The Angelic Qur'an additionally came as a antidote to continuing amusing ills. The corruption of womenfolk is accepted amid the monotheistic faiths traditions we uphold. ALLAH(God) doesn't advance these ideas, but some men accept acclimated the chat of God to fit their own desires. It may be adamantine to accept by attractive at the Muslim apple today but The Qur'an and Muhammad's article was a liberating force to women at that date of history. Women were accustomed to own property, vote, advised according with man, assignment and accustomed the appropriate of divorce. These may be accepted practices today, about they were advocate in a society(and alike Europe) which looked bottomward on women.

The affiliated accompaniment of one man/one wife is the assigned ambience for ancestors as accomplished by The Angelic Qur'an. The Qur'an says to ally one "is added able that you may not do injustice." The catechism may be asked how did a adoration which absolved women and teaches men to ally one wife become alike with polygamy in the minds of most? The Qur'an is a band-aid to situations both accustomed and ab-normal.

The Action of Uhud and Polygamy The Angelic Qur'an, as a religious text, wasn't appear at already but rather was appear over a 23 year period. During this 23 year aeon abounding affairs came up which ALLAH would acknowledge a new affiliate or ballad to abode anniversary situation. This accumulation has appear bottomward to us as the present Qur'an.

History teaches us that already the Muslims larboard their citizenry they had to participate in three aloft battles Badr-Uhud-Ahzab. These wars angle as triumphs of the abate party(Muslims) over numerically and militarily stronger opponents.

During the action of Uhud, in the 3rd year of Hijra, abounding Muslims died due to an Ambush advance by the Quarish. The allowance were 700 Muslims vs. an army of 3000 strong. History teaches us during this war abounding Muslim women became widows. In acknowledgment to this tragedy, ALLAH appear a Quranic ballad (Sura 4:3) acceptance the Muslim men to booty up and advance added than one wife. Before we go any added let us analysis this Quranic verse:

"And if you abhorrence that you cannot do amends to orphans, ally such women as assume acceptable to you, two, or three, or four; but if you abhorrence that you will not do justice, again (marry) alone one or that which your appropriate easily possess. This is added able that you may not do injustice."(Sura 4:3) From account the aloft ballad it becomes clear, in acknowledgment to a situation, ALLAH accustomed a bound polygamy while at the aforementioned time reminding us "One" wife is better.

We charge be acquainted of the amusing action of Arabia in the 7th century. During this aeon a women couldn't aloof go get a job or some amusing welfare. There were few options for the aliment of women in this society-either alliance or prostitution. So ALLAH fabricated an barring to his accustomed law to anticipate fornication, affair or prostitution, and accustomed men who were spiritually, economically and mentally able to ally added than one wife to defended aliment of the female.

Even if you ally added than one wife, according to the Qur'an you charge do amends by them all. What does amends beggarly in this context? It artlessly agency what you do for one wife charge be done for the others. If you buy one a house, car, adornment or added account you charge do the aforementioned for all contrarily you are actuality unjust. If we appearance this in avant-garde day association with the aerial amount of living-we activate to see how un-practible polygamy can be to a man. It is absolutely not aloof for sex.

It is the mis-use of the academy of polygamy by some, not all, Muslim men that has led to the corruption of women in the apple and the antipathy that is aggregate aloft the adoration of Islam by our enemies.

And if some demand to adjudge the Prophet of Islam, Muhammad, for resorting to polygamy we alone accept to attending to the Bible and religious history in accepted to ascertain that abounding Prophets of God entered this convenance for God's own astute purposes.

Polygamy today Now that we accept advised the actual incidents of the convenance of polygamy and the moral- airy affidavit why this convenance was allowed, we now appear to the 21st aeon and the avant-garde day convenance of polygamy. The account of a "Muslim man" with his harem or assorted wives is a accepted angel in the apperception of abounding non-Muslims. Some alike advance the abstraction that ALLAH will acquiesce Muslim men to accept "70 virgins" in paradise-if collapsed in battle. I apperceive abounding may say these are the words of Prophet Muhammad(Peace be aloft him). However, I would like to point out the Prophet said: "After my afterlife abounding apocryphal reports(hadiths) will be attributed to me, but you can adjudicator the artlessness of the letters by the Qur'an."

I say that to say that about forth the band we accept misinterpreted our angelic book and words of our Prophet for the account of our claimed pleasures. The heaven declared by The Angelic Qur'an is not some abundant animal bacchanal of Muslim men block virgins. We charge accept by them[women] actuality declared as virgins in heaven alone agency they are authentic women and clear by filth, but it has annihilation to do with sex.

Thanks for account these words!
