Poem: Understand That There's Wisdom Behind Polygyny

💐 In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 

💌 Understand that when Allah legislated rulings, 

Forbade some acts and allowed us to do certain things, 

He intends to examine our faith as His servants, 

To test our patience and if we truly live for Him, 

If we're sincere enough to not question His Wisdom. 

~•~ 

From what Allah made lawful, not an obligation, 

Is Muslim men being wed to up to four women. 

It's halal if the males don't abuse this permission, 

Discouraged if it leads them to sins and oppression, 

And a blessing if it helps improve them as Muslims. 

~•~ 

But why only four? Why not seven or eleven? 

Just as Allah created and designed the heavens, 

Flowers, trees, plantations, mountains, animals, oceans, 

Nature and humans in a way He knows is fitting, 

As Allah's servants we have no right to question Him. 

~•~ 

Polygyny is there so those who can't bear children 

Can enjoy a blessed marriage life without divorcing. 

A co-wife can be a source of peace when she befriends 

You and cares about you for Allah, while her intent 

Of sharing the same spouse is to earn Jannah's entrance. 

~•~

Don't regard the other wife/wives as competition. 

See them as inspiration to love more your husband, 

And trainers who urge you to be a pro at patience.

Find chances to please Allah so you're loved more by Him 

In polygyny which frightens insecure women. 

~•~ 

📖 Abdullah ibn Amr RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "The world is enjoyment and the best enjoyment in the world is a righteous wife."
