I saw this topic with total mentally copy paste, and on my request to close the topic, it's still in forums, thats y i am trying to clear all doubs of an anti Islamic minds. [topic=3134299]Top 10 Controversial verses of Quran[/topic] In this topic creator has mentioned many points regarding Islamic contradictions, and let me clear it one by one making topics. Objection number 1 -A Man may marry four wives. Lets see what Islam says actually about this matter smiley Qur’an is the only religious book on the face of the earth that says ‘marry only one’. The context of this phrase is the following verse from Surah Nisa of the Glorious Qur’an: “Marry women of your choice, two, or three, or four; but if ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one.” [Al- Qur’an 4:3] Before the Qur’an was revealed, there was no upper limit for polygyny and many men had scores of wives, some even hundreds. Islam put an upper limit of four wives. Islam gives a man permission to marry two, three or four women, only on the condition that he deals justly with them. In the same chapter i.e. Surah Nisa verse 129 says: “Ye are never able to be fair and just as between women….” [Al-Qur’an 4:129 Now we will see what Hindu scriptures says in this matter and was this act of having more wives legal in Hindu scriptures. Polygamy In Hinduism According to the scriptures, a Hindu marriage is indissolvable in life. Still polygamy was rampantly practised in ancient Hindu society. An address by Bhishma to King Yudhishthira in the Mahabharata, succinctly endorses this fact: A Brahmana can take three wives. A Kshatriya can take two wives. As regards the Vaishya, he should take a wife from only his own order. The children born of these wives should be regarded as equal." (Anusasana Parva, Section XLIV). But now that polygamy has been completely gutted out by law, monogamy is the only option for Hindus. INTERESTING NOTE (interesting Note:- As per the 1975 census of India Hindus are more polygynous than Muslims. The report of the ‘Committee of The Status of Woman in Islam’, published in 1975 mentions on page numbers 66 and 67 that the percentage of polygamous marriages between the years 1951 and 1961 was 5.06% among the Hindus and only 4.31 % among the Muslims. According to Indian law only Muslim men are permitted to have more than one wife. It is illegal for any non-Muslim in India to have more than one wife. Despite it being illegal, Hindus have more multiple wives as compared to Muslims. Earlier, there was no restriction even on Hindu men with respect to the number of wives allowed. It was only in 1954, when the Hindu Marriage Act was passed that it became illegal for a Hindu to have more than one wife. At present it is the Indian Law that restricts a Hindu man from having more than one wife and not the Hindu scriptures. Now go and search both Islamic sites on google to quote me, but my topic is not provocative but just a response to above topic, it's a start me one objection, many topics are soon going to come in highlights.

Hahaha... ur contradicting yourself now...I have seen you and your friends saying: Hurray! Muslims are allowed to have 3 or more wives And hindus not That's why rapes are happening in India smiley And you are just accepting the first Verse by the help of this... “Marry women of your choice, two, or three, or four; but if ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one.” No need to say more smiley You're free to accept the rest also

And tell you what....Internet is full of Islamic responses Which is laughable, It shows that how desperate muslims are, to justify their assumptions. Tell you one thing, this world doesn't function over few written text, Today people are more educated and aware than in the past times And they need visual facts Not imaginary ones smiley
