In India, muslims marrying multiple wives and breeding rampantly IS a major issue. This is not a religious issue. It is a national one, a demographic one.
A muslim population growing out of control in India IS an economic problem. And eventually a law and order problem.
Why? Because muslims on the whole in India are pretty backward, largely uneducated, and do not add in any significant proportion to the GDP, the workforce, the scientific brain bank, or the security (in terms of participation in security forces proportionate to their numbers).
This is not an anti muslim critique in any way. It is hard facts, unpalatable and depressing as they may be.
So the need of the houris to bump up the progressive sections of our society and control the regressive ones, such that they do not continue to be a drain on our national resources.
The law about 4 wives was promulgated (in my limited understanding of Islam) at a time and in a place where Islam was being born and growing, largely by military conquest. Military conquest = war = dead young men = less young men available to young marriageable women = large number of women without husbands = large number of women of reproductive age not getting pregnant = lesser babies = reduction of population = eventually less young fighting men for the next generation = a serious setback to the expansion of Islam through military conquest.
Well, the above matrix has no place in modern India. The 4 wives rule is regressive, medieval, and should be done away with post haste.
