Polygamy: an untold story
First of I want to mention that I am not a very strong
supporter of Polygamy in general situation, however I am a strong supporter of
defending women’s rights.
Polygamy (1) is more a taboo of our time than bliss. You can
always read a book or Google a website to satisfy your hunger for the history
and chemistry of polygamy.
Polygamy is the most debated topic of this era. Some say it’s
good for society and same says it’s not. Without touching this ongoing topic I
want to tell you a very different story.
Polygamy is more a tool than a system itself. What I mean by
tool is that, it can be used to rectify the unbalanced equilibrium of our
contemporary society.
I want to tell you a story of a society where there is a
widespread necessity of Polygamy exists. No, we don’t want to increase our manpower
strength, we have already got the privilege to be in the number one position in
this field.
However, we need a tool known as Polygamy to uplift our womenfolk,
the least understood and most underestimated section of our society.
Your upbringing background must be asking that, how can
Polygamy uplift women, in fact Polygamy exploits them? I apologize, you have been given wrong information.
Polygamy is actually protecting women’s rights.
In some society monogamous marriages of two virgin peoples
are actually creating the imbalance. Virgin male has got monopoly to say ‘no’
to any virgin girl who doesn’t meet his criteria, sight manufacturing defects
like short height, healthy body or myopic eyes.
These virgin males utilize
these defects to demoralize girls and her
under-pressure family. After listening to the oft-repeating
saga of defects, girl’s family eventually starts thinking that it is the girl’s fault and nothing can be done except to give
heavy bribes to virgin groom in the name of
dowry, so that the girl’s father can actually fulfil his responsibility to
marry his daughter to a capable Man.
It doesn’t sound that
bad, isn’t it? No, it is actually a disastrous situation where we have given a sharp
sword in the hand of naives to cut our throats. Have you ever tried to draw parallel
lines and by mistake your hand shakes and your line crooks a bit. You will not
bother to rectify your minor error and eventually this slight crookedness will
become complete intersections of parallel lines.
So prepare your girls and boys for polygamous marriages. I
am totally sane when I say this. Polygamous marriage is a responsibility which
should be understood by all the three parties involved.
I want to give emphasis on, that Polygamy is a tool to
rectify an error and therefore it should be treated according to your society
and cultural requirements.
Polygamy should be treated more as an ethical responsibility
than a conjugal bliss.
Reference:
1. Here Polygamy means Polygyny . Polyandry is
haram in Islam.
Personal Note:
I had always dreamed to be a part of a Polygamous marriage until
I met someone who actually made me realize that I actually wanted to be in
that. However, I am now in monogamous marriage, Alhamdulillah.
