[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I am a Muslim with a fairly large extended family as well. My paternal grandmother had 13 children. My maternal grandmother had five. I don't even know anyone who has had a polygamous marriage in this country or another country. Not only it is rare, but it is frowned upon. This is general position of most Muslims I know. The Quran itself does not recommend it and states that it may be used only sparingly under the strictest of circumstances (such as war time).[/quote] It's not frowned upon among the Muslims I know. It's just really expensive and cumbersome. Especially if the second wife is Saudi as well, these ladies don't come cheap. None of the Muslims I know thinks it has to be wartime to get a second wife. It's more like, won a lottery, wheee! more wives, here I come! It's not a common view among scholars either. The scholarly consensus on the subject is as follows: no more than four, equal treatment to all, you're good to go.[/quote]
