Being a Second Wife
Have you ever met a young person who is actively seeking to be one? I met up with a "cousin" of mine I haven't seen for a while and she was debating with me about the benefits. Waan ka yaabey, obviously she put the religious twist about it's allowed blah blah blah and about there's more men than women blah blah blah. Waan ka yaabey but in the end it was live and let live but if I ever get married I sure as hell will not be introducing you to my husband.

What was her reason for seeking to be one? Is she is under the illusion that she will get brownie ajar pointsJasmine6 wrote:Have you ever met a young person who is actively seeking to be one?

If we kept at it she'd probably have said as much. He reasoning was she'd rather be the second than the first to which I asked what about the third, she apparently hadn't thought that far ahead. Oh and of course a second wife to a wealthy man, naturally.CilmiDoone wrote:

Re: Being a Second Wife
Not yet, it's just her philosophy in life now apparently. Her reasoning is, he's going to marry a second wife anyway, why not be that one instead and then she tries to justify it. I wonder how many girls are like this nowadaysDeeqaDagan wrote:She sounds like she is seeing a married man.Jasmine6 wrote:Have you ever met a young person who is actively seeking to be one?

Re: Being a Second Wife
I know right? Out of the frying pan into the fire, she'd rather take the risk of being the second wife than the first, to her this risk of getting hurt is smaller.CilmiDoone wrote:She sounds very gullible.
That said a lot of Somali men who become rich tend to marry again so that's where she was coming from. She said she'd rather be a rich man's second wife than be the one who helped him get there only to be the first wife of many

Re: Being a Second Wife
Men have other things like Jihad, working hard etc etc. but for women it is letting go her ego. which is not easy for her.CilmiDoone wrote:How so?Somali-Transporter wrote:actully giving up your ego for the sake of your husband--> is a easy access to JannahJasmine6 wrote:Have you ever met a young person who is actively seeking to be one?

Like Ibrahim and sahra they were together sinces they was 16 years old actully they ran together from the muskriin there parents and left turkey for palestine.
that was love like really love what they had together.. but she was tested by god with Hajr, she could not give birth to Ibrahim so she sacrificed here desire and ego and told him to marry her slave Hajr and after she gave birth to his first son.. god gave him a command to take Hajr and Ismael to mecca.. it was not easy for sahra.. it was also some kind of respect for her as well.. but she never said i don't like hajr or created any problems. she used sabr so she was amongst the as-Sabriin..
Anywayzz those people are amongst the best people of this world..

Re: Being a Second Wife

most men these days don't even treat their multiple wifes with the same respect...so why bother?

Re: Being a Second Wife
Nabi Muhammad (saw) married a woman who 15 years older than him and one who was a garoob. Therefore go marry one such as she. He also didn't marry another until after her death. If you are going to follow footsteps, why not follow his?

lol... so you are of the 'i read a story' lot.... let's unpick this a little further.Somali-Transporter wrote:Men have other things like Jihad, working hard etc etc. but for women it is letting go her ego. which is not easy for her.CilmiDoone wrote:How so?Somali-Transporter wrote:

1. Provide sources to this story you've posted.
2. Most women are not like Sahra, in that they are not infertile.
3. Your story does not suggest that Sahra was compelled in her decision.
4. Your story does not prove your assertion that "giving up your ego for the sake of your husband = is a easy access to Jannah".
5. Your story does not suggest that Sahra received ajar above and beyond that of any other woman exclusively because of her choice of action.
6. Sabr can be practiced in many different ways, and applied to many different challenges and circumstantes. So let's not pretend that a state of Sabr is exclusively achieved by somen like Sahra.
I mean I could go further, but I won't.

Re: Being a Second Wife
But hey... Girls you should know one thing which is actully in your favor..
A man can marry 4 wives only if they accept it. which means your husband can't just marry behind your back it is against Islam.. but somali men have made it halal for themselves and are cheating on Allah(Swt) laws..
Your Husband most come to you and tell you I wanna marry this woman with you.. so you have 2 options no or yes. if no and he still wants then he most give you talaq..
