       Love your wife as she deserves to be loved.Seek advice from her as you must.Don't let her feel "a second class member" of your family.She has rights and she must be allowed to exercise them.Anonymous

       @ukkasha Islam says don't marry more than one if you can't do proper justice among your wives.

       @ukkasha @sufi well it is practiced in some regions of Africa. But the essential reason was the confusion of who's the father. Now we have technology to determine that so problem solved !

       I agree Natasha It was practiced even in parts of Punjab and haryana. Biologically there is nothing wrong in this.And to be honest, I feel Islam's view of having more than one wives is nothing more than using woman as a sex object and leaving hee@Irani_chai @sufi

       What I know is that in initial days of Islam, Islam had permitted men to have as many as wives he wants, but later it was reduced to 4.Main reason was giving shelter to widows. But when we look at the Islamic history, this was always used as a political tool to use woman as sex objects@sufi @Irani_chai

       @ukkasha @sufi @Irani_chai bhai aaj ke date me India me in sab bato ko discuss karne ka scope hai? Hindutva is the elephant in the room. 2014 se pahle mai bhi Sam Harris ka fan tha. Aaj bhi mai Islamic extremism ko biggest threat manta hu par India me Hindutva sabse badi threat hai aur vo fence sitters me in sab bato ke chalte sustain karti hai.

       @ukkasha @sufi @Irani_chai Good discussion going! As @sufi mentioned, Islam doesn't allow more than one if you can't do justice to the second or third or fourth wife. That's true.As for 'political tool'...agree...though feudalism and monarchy not only used women as sex objects but as political objects too. Anyway, that was then....futile to extrapolate medieval times with the modern.

       @ukkasha @sufi women are seen as sex object by majority of religions and communities. It's a perception and not agenda by the religion. It was permitted for some other reason but low minds abused this. Anyway i dont agree with 4 wives.

       @Irani_chai sister, Islam tells us that if a man can't be just for each of his wives, he mustn't marry more than ONE.If somebody marries more than one woman out of his lust, his act goes against the spirit of Islam. The man must be condemned, not the religion.@ukkasha

       @sufi @ukkasha Yes i agree. Hence we need to blame the mindset of humans.

       @Irani_chai Religion promote humanity and humans use it to divide and spread hate. Same for an atheist also. @sufi @ukkasha

       We don't need religion to promote humanity. Every human has empathy and a sense of doing what is right and what is wrong. We lived peacefully for 280k years without a shit called god. And now we are killing and hating each other in the name of god. Lets go back to our roots and live in a society free from a shit called religion @Vishsai @Irani_chai @sufi

       @ukkasha I sense a lot of anger. Let me quote Karl Marx,"Religious distress is at the same time the expression of real distress and the protest against real distress. Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, just as it is the spirit of a spiritless situation. It is the opium of the people. "This simple and yet profound quote says that we would need to address the exploitative spirit inside and around us in a dialectic manner.@Vishsai @Irani_chai @sufi

       @ukkasha religion just like any philosophy can be used as a tool of exploitation. When the famous term 'inquilab' was coined by Hasrat Mohani(popularised by Bhagat Singh) it meant "inquilab se mera matlab insaan ke haatho se insaan ka shoshan bandh ho". One solution I came across in liberation theology was a human being must self actualise. This means becoming aware of the self and breaking the structures that keep one shackled. However this cant be achieved by anger @Vishsai @Irani_chai @sufi

       @ukkasha @Vishsai @sufi from the time Neanderthal and pre that humans have had hate and negative thoughts and actions for each other. God isn't the problem. Humans are. An atheist can murder rape or hate another person too.
