IT'S SHAMEFUL TO REFERS AS AN ISLAMIC WAY OF MARRIAGE!!!!

   Abstract 

  It's unfortunate that Islam is taken as an individual property, Since everyone is committing a sin or immoral action, and claims that he/she is executing as Islamic practice. And this is why Islam is disrespected in the Today's world whilst Islam is the manifestation which disclosed by Allah (The Creator and Lord of universe) for the guidance of Mankind.Allah Said:  "He has revealed to you the Book with the truth, confirming what has been before it, and has sent down the Torah and the Injīl.  Earlier to give guidance to mankind, and has sent down the Furqān (the Criterion of right and wrong). Surely, those who have rejected the verses of Allah, for them there is severe punishment. Allah is Mighty, the Lord of Retribution."(Qur'an, 3:3-4)

 And it's the religion preached by all Prophets  Allah. Allah Said: "Say (O Muhammad), (O, Muslims): “We believe in Allah, and in what has been revealed to us, and in what has been revealed to Ibrāhīm, Ismā‘īl (Ishmael), IsHāq (Isaac), Ya‘qūb and his children, and in what has been given to Mūsā and ‘Īsā (Jesus) and what has been given to the prophets from their Lord: We make no difference between any of them, and to Him we submit ourselves.”( Qur'an, 2:136) Also Said: "Are they, then, seeking a religion other than that of Allah, while to Him alone submit all those in the heavens and the earth, willingly or unwilling, and to Him they shall be returned?.

  IS THIS A MADNESS? 

   I asked myself, whether I'm in a nightmare or is as came across this news article on a man married to seven wives at same time.

  

Habib married the seven women, among them biological sisters, in a beautiful wedding ceremony held at Bugere ka village in Mukono district on Sunday, the 10th September, 2023,2023.

This a family polygamy and have a historical marriage of more than four (4) wives. As clarified by the groom's father, Hajj Abdul Ssemakula As the groom's father, Hajj Abdul Ssema, that his grandfather married six(6) wives. Secondly, the family is Muslim, since it was done in traditional Muslim wedding ( Nikkah). 

   Although, they are born in Islam and given Islamic names, but they acting against Islam norms and Sharia laws. To marry more than four wives and blood sisters. In fact married two blood sisters is Haram in the accordance to the Qur'anic teaching and this not allowed in traditional Sunni and Shia Islamic marital jurisprudence.

POLYGYNY IN ISLAM 

Conventional Sunni and Shia Islamic marital jurisprudence permits Muslim men to be married to a couple of women (a practice referred to as polygyny). Men may have up to four wives at a time consistent with the Islamic jurisprudence.

The verse most commonly referred to with the topic of polygamy is verse 3 of Surah 4 An-Nisa (Women). A translation by Mufti Taqi Usman is shown below:

"If you fear that you will not do justice to the orphans, then, marry the women you like, in twos, in threes and in fours. But, if you fear that you will not maintain equity, then (keep to) one woman, or bondwomen you own. It will be closer to abstaining from injustice". [ Qur’an, Sura 4 (An-Nisa), Ayah 3]

The first part of the verse (.... marry the women you like, in two,in three and in four....) clearly indicates that you can only marry four(4) women at a time. Second part {---- if you fear that you will not maintain equity, then (keep to) One women----}, Here what is considered is the man's ability to justify among the women( wives) but not the man's sexual definition. (Opinion of classical Islamic scholars on polygyny  Archived from the original on 29-12-2014.

Does Islam allows polygamy practice of two blood sisters? 

Islam is a high dignity, and respectful religion that protects all right and fundamental freedom of all creatures on the universal. Remember it is the code of life for human development. 

Marriage of two blood sisters is prohibited in Islam as mentioned in Qu'ran 4:23. "˹Also˺  forbidden to you for marriage are your mothers, your daughters, your sisters, your paternal and maternal aunts, your brother’s daughters, your sister’s daughters, your foster-mothers, your foster-sisters, your mothers-in-law, your stepdaughters under your guardianship if you have consummated marriage with their mothers—but if you have not, then you can marry them—nor the wives of your own sons, nor two sisters together at the same time—except what was done previously. Surely Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

In the above verse states The forbidden Marriage that , these are: you are Forbidded to Marry 

1. Your family members. Likes Mother/father, daughter/Son, sister/brother, paternal and maternal aunt/uncle, your brother's daughter/son, your sister's daughter/son, 

2. Breastfeeding: Fostor mother and foster sister/brother, 

3. your mothers-in-law, 

4.  Your stepdaughters  under your guardianship if you have consummated marriage with their mothers—but if you have not, then you can marry them.

5. The wives of your own sons, and 

6. Not to marry two sisters together at the same time. 

Therefore, a Muslim man is allowed to marry upto four wives that is only if he can maintain justice. For those who have married more than four, remember that only 4 wives are Halal for you, the rest Haram in fact there is no Nikkah!!!. 

And if you married two blood sisters you have leave one, otherwise you're doing Zinah!!! Adultery.
