The battle began when the father insisted the boy should marry a girl from his side of the family. The mother retaliated by ordering him to wed a girl from her side, reports Arab News quoting Al-Watan daily. But the father wasn't happy with the balance of power and insisted on a third wife from his side, to show who was boss. The mother, not to be outdone, then demanded that her son include another wife from her side of the family. The son has now been admitted to a hospital for psychological treatment. He is refusing to see his parents or his wives.
see this is what gives muslims a bad rap, taking something as serious as marriage and turning it into a joke
Marriage in the US has often times become a joke (although a very sad one) also. The divorce rate, children being born out of wedlock and being raised w/out a father etc..... We really aren't the model for that.
Yeah, but I think the distinguishing characteristic is that this guy never divorced his first, second, or, umm, third wives. Maybe it's not so unusual....if we're in Utah.
why is this giving Muslims a bad name? **** I'd love to have 5 wives since i'm in love with a stripper.
