Very smart move by Indian Judiciary

[Jobless Jack]

What if its the otherway around ,if a women can take care of two men or more ,why cant she have more than one husband at a time.the point is not if he can freed them or shelter them,the point is if a man cannt accept his wife to have another or more husbands along with him(that hurts his ego,you see),how can one say wife are happy to accept or share her husband with another women.



To be frank, it has nothing to do with religion.

because a women with 2 or more husband will cause social problems( identity cricis for kids ) but a man with multiple wives wont as long as he can look after the wives and the kids.

now if you are just arguing for the sake of arguing then you win the internet for the day

and it has every thing to do with religion. muslims marry 4 times for a reason. and women dont. if you dont know then maybe you should do research.

and maybe in india husbands live off their wives but in other countries husbands look after their wives

For those who feel Modi ji is only posing for photo ops, kindly read the writing on the wall.

Things are beginning to fall in place.

2016, Article 370.

ah but your reply has nothing to do with my question my trolling friend.

First your assumption was that the wife will be happy to share her husband with other woman. I have just turned the assumption around saying that the husband should also be happy to share his wife with 3 other men.

Your second assumption was that the husband will be able to take equal care for both, all 3 or all 4 of his wifes. This assumption is kind of flawed because it is nearly impossible in reality.

The judge has just made an observation that Polygamy is not integral part of Islam. Even the Quran sys take the wifes if you can take of them equally which is nearly impossible

The Judge is just saying follow the quran and the conditions laid out in it. We do have a muslim personal law which ideally should not be there. Every citizen should follow the same law in the land

It is amazing to read comments of posters who support Polygamy - whatever be the reason including religion.

I am loathe to the thought of giving away my sister/ daughter in marriage to a man as his second/ third wife .

It beats me how this can happen or be allowed/ appreciated.

 

[doppelganger]

The muslim community should have no issues being part of a Uniform Civil Code.

Just give a voice to their women. Free, fair, anonymous. The rest would be easy.

99% of their resistance comes on issues which directly impact and put women down. Marriage. Divorce. Inheritance. Property. Burqa. Education.

What are you saying women have no selfrespect,is religion only for men ?

All the things you said above are and made by men.if colour red is tought to you as colour yellow all your life thats the truth for you.i wont blame you.

Ideantiy crisis you mentioned ,its writen by men ,so that women wont go out(bad publicity) ,and if the samething is done by men then there must be something he got which is attracting women to him.see the difference(advatersiment).Religion is for men,by men.

umm no my assumption was that the wife would permit the husband to marry a second/third/fourth wife as per the islamic law.

my question was if the his first wife allows him to marry and he can look after them both wh yare people whinning ?

according to islamic law the person can marry more then once if he have permission of his wife, and he can look after them and the children he has with her.

my comments are more pointed towards the people who constantly whine about muslim men marrying more than once.

as to uniform law , no not every law should be same for everyone. ok basic laws like the punishment for murder theft and rape should be same for all. but the personal law should stay because hey, just because i dont like pork, wont eat pork dosent mean i have the right to remove the pork from someone else.

Precisely why some preemptive action required constitutionally. Instead of radiation therapy (late reaction) change the diet, exercise etc etc.!

How would it make any difference to demographics?Polygamy is obviously wrong but makes no difference to demographics. If a muslim guy marries 4 wives , that would result in 3 muslim guys who are not going to get married ever.

Very myopic and short sighted view. Glad you are not in position of power in India.

forgetting that there are 3 non-muslim women available but then you also have more children so your argument is very very flawed.

UCC (Uniform Civil Code) is never going to happen in India - at least until and unless a majority of India's largest minority religion has modern education as its core belief. Try UCC implementation and you will see India burning. Not at least in the next 50 years...

No need to go full hog. Make smart incremental changes.

Implement Uniform Civil code, or educate the women not to fall for this trap........ No way you can legalize this

Polygamy not integral part of Islam: SC - The Times of India

Don't let these folks hide behind religious law while it is nothing but a subversive practice to change the demography of India. Smart to label it as personal rather than religious which will just get them worked up!

thanks for sharing
but logic of verdict is indian constitution and human right
What was protected under Article 25 (right to practice and propagate any religion) was the religious faith and not a practice which may run counter to public order, health or morality. Polygamy was not integral part of religion and monogamy was a reform within the power of the State under Article 25,
wrt
this case
case Khursheed Ahmad Khan, employed as irrigation supervisor, had married Anjum Begum during existence of first marriage with Sabina Begum. Sister of his first wife had filed a complaint before National Human Rights Commission which ordered a police probe in the case

in 100 years Islam will be majority religion in India, they just have to work overtime

Just when I planned to marry my neighbour's beautiful wife after converting to Islam, SC pours cold water on my di..! Jihad is the only option left for me.

No brother there time is over, hard liner islam may disintegrate in 100 years if the current scenario in the world of Islam continues.Polygami if allowed, then must be allowed to all whether, hindu, muslim, christian, budhist, sikh .There should law of Constitution India prevail not personal laws.I welcome the SC decision.

That's when they turn to other religions for girls, you see! Kind of Love j***d.

This attitude is at the root of the problem,

Instead of taking a lead through contributions towards all round &all inclusive improvement Islamists want to overwhelm through numbers.

Quantity matters little when compared to quality.

Not just that. The Islamists use polygamy as a lure for others wanting to have second/multiple wives to convert into their fold - sort of like a shortcut to bypass the law. Not uncommon to see it practiced/abused in India - not just by the Bollywood celebrities. They obviously think of it as a win-win for their community. Why will they ever let go off it?

I am for Polygami for all religions and races.

when historian write about history in say 200 years from now, they will call this supreme court verdict as the game changer in entire history of mankind, a verdict that effected 13 Indian Muslim men.

Wouldn't it be the end of days for muslims in the next few years according to your religious prophecy? So, where is the question of 100 years?.
