Stricter laws on polygamy

Below i start blogging, below i copy and paste a paste from an online article :

Muhammad did not practice polygamy because he was unable to resist his sexual desires. At the age of 25 he married a women, Khadija, who was 40 years old and his boss. She owned a trading firm that Muhammad use to work for. Marrying an older women who was economically independent, richer and more powerful than him, are not the ways of a narrow-minded male chauvinist. Muhammad was a man of great honor and was widely respected. He could have married whoever he wanted and as many as he wanted since at that time men having many wives was common and often seen as a measure of a man’s status. In his marriage that lasted nearly 25 years, fifteen before his Prophethood and ten afterwards, he remained in a devoted monogamous relationship. I believe that this period of twenty-five years is a measure of Muhammad and his commitment to monogamy. If he did not succumb to his alleged libido in his youth and when society had no problems with that practice he still chose to be the anomaly in his times – a monogamous man

His other marriages in his days as the political leader of Medina must be seen more in the light of his politics than his family life. They were alliances with tribes, they were institutions of social welfare for destitute women and often responses to the contingencies of his time.

Below is an article on the polygamous marriage of Malaysia's MP Bung Mokhtar and some actress :
http://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/fmt-english/news/general/5754-polygamy-bung-moktar-gets-one-month-jail-sentence

Now let's begin!

According to the article, "On April 20, Bung Moktar and Zizie Izette pleaded guilty at the Gombak Timur lower syariah court, here to the charge of committing polygamy without the court's permission, at the end of last year."

I didn't study syariah law so i'm a bit blur on this matter but nevertheless, i've come across people who have committed polygamous marriage SECRETLY. It seems like the syariah law did provide punishment for those who didn't get the court's permission when they want to commit polygamy.

So if there was such law, why the men that i know who committed polygamy secretly behind their wife's back didn't get punish? Or the law only requires him to inform the court and not the wife? But i did come across an article where not only must there be a court's permission but the existing wife/wives must be present for hearing.

Therefore, if only the court's permission is required, then the wife will still be clueless about the husband's subsequent secret marriages right?

Or perhaps those women whose husband committed polygamy didn't bother to bring such court action when they find out? One, is either there DON'T KNOW of the law which requires the husband to get the court's permission and two, they do KNOW of the law but don't have the heart to see their husband in jail.

Well, if i was them and i did find out my asshole of a husband married another woman, and i chose to divorce that ungrateful son of a bitch who have hurt my pride and dignity, i would love to see him rot in jail for 1 month. i'll report him so court will take action against him if say the law was that he needs court permission.

But if the law is that it's NOT mandatory to inform the wife, then i think the law needs to be changed! Men, when it comes to polygamy they say that the prophet did it, so it's not wrong for them to do it. But what these shallow minded Muslim men failed to see or understand is that the prophet Muhammad did ask permission and inform his wife if he's going to marry another. And based on the passage i copied above, he was married to Siti Khatijah for 25 YEARS.

And what about the Muslim men in Malaysia? Not only did they not inform their wife, but they are only married for like 5,10, 15 years before they married the 2nd, 3rd, 4th wives. See, if you want to use religion as your point of argument, make sure you get your bloody facts right. When i pointed the fact that the prophet informed his wife, some men think i'm lying, saying they want proof. Do you think that the prophet is as deceiving as you are? If you think your decision to polygamy is done in a right manner and justified, why are you afraid to tell the truth to your wife? You are afraid she will cut off your balls? You are a pussy to your wife then? Your decision to marry another women not only will affect you but will affect your wife. So don't be a selfish asshole.

There should be a law that the wife must be informed of the husband's intention to marry another one. Her consent is unnecessary because the matter will be brought before the court where the court will decide whether he's capable of marrying another one and the wife can tell the court whatever she wants.

And if such law is already in existence, women shouldn't be ignorant of such law especially if you are gonna divorce him! Humiliate him with jail sentence as how he humiliated you by marrying another woman behind your back. And make the bitch who he married pay the fine! She should be equally sentenced to jail like the man too.
