Dear LIB readers; How do women in polygamy cope?

From a female LIB reader
"I have been married for seven years and I have always lived separately from my husband. He is in d military and works in Abuja while I'm a banker working in Lagos. My husband just informed me he is taking a second wife and there is no going back. I requested for a divorce, he refused saying he still loves me. We have 3 kids and are practicing Muslims. Please how do women in polygamy handle it because I am so traumatized just thinking about sharing my husband with another woman.

Men are naturally polygamous. Loving two women for five different reasons comes to them naturally. Women on the other hand are mentally monogamous. You have to think from his perspective and live with it or you'll just end up hating yourself and everyone else.

Sorry eh, i feel your pain but i am not in the best position to answer you because i am still single for now. Men, hmm, it is well. Tell your bank to transfer you to Abuja branch, it will draw you closer to your husband.

Since you guys are muslims, you should have expected now.
You're naturally suppose to know to handle it , because your religion permits it.
Ask your fellow Muslim wives how they did it.

Zini said...

My dear friend, don't kill yourself there has been another woman all along but you didn't know, its the knowledge that he taking another wife that is killing you...
<<<REWIND... pretend you are not aware and lead a happy life with your children.

Unknown said...

Since you are a Muslim and a Nigerian, you must face the consequences. Your husband is allowed to take up to four wives. If you don't agree decamp to another religion that supports monogamy. Thanks

You muslim women are funny. How dare you ask for a divorce when your religion permits polygamy. You cant take one part of the religion and leave the other or did you just assume he wont exercise that rigth? Well sorry to burst your bubble but assumption is the mother of all F ups.

If he loves u den second wife should not be an option for him, forget abt those stories that he loves u If u think u a strong enough to live as a sinlge mother go ahead, Poligamous home is not a good optin nor single mother is easy and d best for u and ur children, Ask if d reason he wants to take a second wife if it is something u can work out with a lot of sacrifice do it if u love him and he is worth it

Nonsense fake story, he loves u and yet his taking another wife? You HV 3kidds and yet his taking another wife? What's d second wife for then? If is about d distance u can easily ask your bank to tranfer u to abuja to be with hubby which i did when i got married so whats d second wife for?Fake story, linda pls stop feeding us with nonsense.

Why are you traumatized? Polygamy and Islam go hand in hand, so, you should have expected this right before you got married to him. And you are traumatized thinking of sharing your husband with another woman, you said? Well, the bad news is that you have been sharing him with OTHER WOMEN for long before now. He only chose to wife one of his women. You have been living apart, which may have been parr of this decision of his. Your living apart, may have given him room to check out other women and get another wife. Madam, accept your fate. Just love and accept the other wife and teach your kids same. My grandfather married 4 wives and they all lived together peacefully, until his death.

Please....give me a break! Isn't that what your religion is all about??? Oh! You're being modern now, abi! Feeling cool! My dear...your religion permits 4 wives to a man. It comes with the territory :))! You knew this all along. Deal with it and stop your bitter party story....please! Otherwise, change your religion. Then you'll have a choice and a voice!!

U have been sharing him since.. but u jst didn't knw.. I guess the second wife is already pregnant and she doesn't want to abort it.. Sooo he's going to marry her... It's a good thing he even informed u.. most men won't.. anyways madam.. I think u will learn to cope.. since he isn't even near u.. u may really never see the second wife and it won't hunt u dat bad... u will be fine Ma.. take heart.. when u marry a Nigerian Man.. anything is possible..

religion apart.......my sister...... it is very unfortunate that we are accepting d foreign culture of one man to one wife....... but have u ever taken a look at statistics??? in every country, we hav more women dan men,,,,,,, even in your country Nigeria,,,,,,, so tell me.... if every man marries one,,,,, hu wil marry d rest..... they will end up becoming public property, which ya own husban will b following again,,,, so instead of allowing him to legally bring dem, u wil b forcing dem to get side kicks, whic s more painful ..........wot will u advise ya blood sister wen all men already have 1 wife n there s the option for her to be SECOND WIFE or PUBLIC PROPERTY.??????

Its ur religion so u must know how to cope, your husband is entitled to 4 wives. The only remedy would have been to marry a christian man but christian cheat like dogs even they would most likely not take another wife.

You're a practicing Muslim right? Why are you complaining since it is allowed in your religion. Abeg, ask your fellow Hajias

Well u are even lucky he told u,,in as much as I don't support polygamy..its ur decision to make, ,if u knw u can't handle it then walk away buh if u still luv ur hubby well stay for d sake of ur kids

Madam,I feel your pain but being a Muslim his actions should nt surprise you especially as you don't live together. For your children s sake continue with your marriage. Hold on to God, let your hands be clean and the lord will uphold you

This is disheartening! God is your strength....

Unknown said...

My dear... Baffling.. At least u want to divorce.. Most women won't divorce cos of what d society will say... Selfish men..

Thandeka said...

As a practicing Muslim you should have talked about this before getting married. I always wonder too how women in polygamous homes cope. When i see them wearing aso ebi and looking very happy in public i admire them and wonder how they cope. Since you live apart already it may not be so bad to cope.

abake said...

madam, u said have bee living separately for 7 years and y think for all those years u had your husband to your self. in your 7 years you must have seen indications that your husband is seeing someone else.2ndly, you said you are a practicing Muslim one of the doctrines of islam is marring more than one wife if the man wishes , if you are a Muslim that shouldn't be a problem anymore. you request a divorce because of another woman who intends to live in Abuja with your husband.......if i were you i wont but life is about ones choice. the next man u will likely befriend or wanna marry will either be married with a wife or be married with more than one. and you end up being a second fiddle anyway.so dear,choice is yours

Anonymous said...

Its ur religion. Accept it.

Or watch africa magic hausa since this is their favourite topic. But they start up fighting & end up accepting it. So same as my first advice.

Unknown said...

Write to your bank for them to transfer you to Abuja. if they refuse resign relocate to Abuja where your husband is.

Anonymous said...

Like what the fuck were you doing in lagos? I am sure it is loneliness and lack of care that pushed him to this. You should have stayed with your husband and look for job in Abuja. My dear you have no choice, u will have to cope ni, since it is acceptable in your religion. Just continue with your beloved work and face your children

Anonymous said...

It requires a very big sacrifice, if u can leave ur work or ask to be transfered to ABJ so that u can be with him, may be he will think twice about getting a second wife. I wish u the best of luck.

What is wrong with marrying another wife, 7yrs of staying apart, madam you are just married to him on paper. Muslim practicing or not will do the same thing. You have a good job, continue with your married but living single lifestyle and raise you kids. Forget him focus on the kids

Hmmm.... coping in polygamy depends on how strong ones Iman is . If you believe that you're in the marriage for Allah's sake and that it's Allah swt that wills everything you will be able to cope. Prayers, patience and Tawwakkul are the key factors. just pray to Allah swt for ease.

That he's marrying another wife doesn't mean he doesn't love you , putting sentiments and religion aside ,men are capable of loving women differently that's why you see some keeping other women and some Christians marrying more than one woman secretly and some openly. Please get lectures on marriage from scholars like Mufti Ismail Menk and also attend Muslim gatherings anywhere in your neighborhood . You should not offend your creator for d sake of any human being,the essence why Allah swt created us has been made known to us.

Asalam alaykum dear sister. Our creator Alllah swt told us that : "HE will not burden a soul with more than it can bear ". With this verse of the Quran ,i would like to say that Allah wouldnt throw polygamy your way if it would cause you hardship. coping in polygamy depends on how strong ones Iman is . If you believe that you're in the marriage for Allah's sake and that it's Allah swt that wills everything you will be able to cope. Prayers, patience and Tawwakkul are the key factors . just pray to Allah swt for ease. And it also depends on how much knowledge the husband has coz this would determine how he treats the wives. If you truly loves the husband ,you won't consider divorcing him and have in mind that any woman that doesn't accept polygamy according to the sunah her religious rites are not complete. Since you loves your husband so much ,why didn't seek for transfer or leave her job and live her life for Allah swt and close to your husband ? Especially when marriage is about making sacrifices . Please try to get these books and read : " "You can be the happiest woman on earth " and " Don't be Sad". That he's marrying another wife doesn't mean he doesn't love you , putting sentiments and religion aside ,men are capable of loving women differently that's why you see some keeping other women and some Christians marrying more than one woman secretly and some openly . Advise her to get lectures on marriage from scholars like Mufti Ismail Menk and also attend Muslim gatherings anywhere youre living .

If yes quote the verse pls cos even the Bible has no place where it talked about marrying or staying with just one woman but if I lie quote the verse pls. Even the Quran gas conditions that men have turned to suit themselves.

You asked for a divorce and he said No because he still loves you? You're a learner. Stay there and wait for him to happily give you your divorce now. Or what did you expect him to say? Obviously he wants to eat his cake and have it too. And you sure are helping him. Honestly, to me that's the worse thing my husband can do to me, and at that point I would have nothing to lose anyway. So he would have to Reuther choose me, or her. If he chooses her then I'm gone. Cus there's no way I'm sharing my home with another woman. Marriage no be by force now. And don't even think about waiting it out and praying, cus once he brings that woman in, she's never leaving his house. Ask the millions of Muslim sisters to tell you.

If your husband is a true practicing Muslim, he wouldn't go ahead to marry another wife without your permission. The religion allows a man to marry more than one wife but the permission of his wife (wives) is a significant criteria.

Anonymous said...

well,islam supports polygamy so it should not be new to new to you. Unless you are saying now that you want to God's view about the issue. which is one man,one wife.

Just Me said...

my dear, firstly, your religion permits polygamy, secondly he wants polygamy. it is not really all about religion but the man in question. there are many muslim men who are married to their wife only, no concubines not to talk of second wife talk less of third. discuss with your husbi, find out what the issues are, is it your work, distance, you don't "do him" sufficiently becos of distance, you know sex is very important in marriage; does he still love you enough, is he happy in the marriage?. try to get him talk to you, I mean try diagnose the matter and try find solution just like the doctor. military dudes, they love hot panties a lot with many partners becos of their work - he need relaxation after the days work which you are not there to provide, chances are that he may be under some influence to taste other punana. tread carefully though not to cause more issues in your marriage which no body prays for you. However if he is bent on taking a second wife, then try find happiness in your children and others things to engage your time, then pray to your God.

Stupid girl, all this religion stuff is such nonsense and love he does not know what love is. Exactly what I say about 99 percent of Nigerian marriages they say love love love but have no idea what that entails. Love is commitment, communication, respect and friendship, he is not committed to you, nor does he have respect for you or a good friendship. No one who truly loves and cherishes their wife wants another and that's a fact. If you can pay your way by yourself move on maybe you will find someone who really loves you, only stay if you need the money. finish.

That's when you will be speaking English - its just so wrong. Men sha and all sort of bla bla bla... You are advising her now. CONTINUE

Allah is the Arabic word for God (al ilāh, literally "the God"). The word has cognates in other Semitic languages, including Elah in Aramaic, ʾĒl in Canaanite and Elohim in Hebrew. So Allah is the name of God in another language it's not specific to religion

...Dividends of Islam. And... the man lied when he told you he still loves you. If he loves you, he wont take another woman. Muslims dont know love. That is why they permit polygamy. Only muslims take so much joy in bombing and killing people because they dont know or have love. They dont understand what love feels like. The religion is more of a disaster than a blessing. Islam tagline is; Islam - killing people physically and emotionally since inception.

Don't mind all those saying that you are a Muslim you should have expected it, that is their level of Ignorance Speaking. Polygamy is not an automatic right of every Muslim man there are rules.

So the Question become as he followed the rules?

My advise - 1. You've been living apart for the past 7 years, Technically (in Islam -if you are apart from each other for more than 4 months) you are not married (your Nikkah is Annulled)- So it is not required for him to grant you a divorce - tell him this if you want

2.How long has he know this new woman? why does he want to marry her? did he inform you of some needs that you were not fulfilling? and are unable to fufill given time? is she a widow stranded and in need of care? If the answer to all this is NO then Islamically he cannot marry her.

3. Was he involved with her (has he slept with her?) before he proposed marriage to her if the answer to this is YES, then Again he cannot marry her because If he does he will be Living in ADULTERY (for the rest of his life)

4.Its time to dust up your Quran and read.You will get more from there. Islam says "SEEK YEE KNOWLEDGE", and I add "so that you may not be MISLEAD"

Finally because he is a Muslim does not automatically give him the right to be polygamous, there are rules that he must follow. So once you've done your research and you still decide to stay with him confront him with these facts and am sure he will have no choice but to stop the marriage (if he does not want to go to Hell)
