[QUOTE]Originally posted by Haqikah: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Amina: [b]Monica, when I met him at a medical congress 3 years ago and fell in love I knew he was married. His 1st wife told me that there was no more love between them but that she did not want a divorce for the sake of their children. As they are a very wealthy and respected family she feared she might lose her dignity in front of neighbors and friends in case of a divorce. Being a muslim myself I could understand her - even if I grew up in Europe. She agreed that I'd be the second wife, so she could keep her dignity. I get along with his 1st wife, so there is no problem. We made a contract, though, that he is not allowed to marry a third wife. If he had the wish to do so, I would divorce.[/b][/QUOTE] As salaamu alaykum Amina My husband is a doctor in Alexandria as well, perhaps they know eachother, what club does he belong to? It was quite shocking to read this part of your post, as being in clubs with other doctors wives, most will find it less dignified to stay in a marriage where a husband takes a second wife, especially one from a wealthy family, it will usually bring her more shame and divorcing him shows some dignity. It is unfortunate that it's usually the poorer less educated women that accept second wives, as the more educated, at least the ones that I know, always have it written in their marriage contracts... THEY WILL NOT ACCEPT A SECOND WIFE... it's interesting you said that she made a contract with you not to take a third wife, I have never in all my years heard of a second wife and a first wife making a contract together, maybe I misunderstood. Polygamy is less acceptable in the educated class unless under strict islamic guidance. It is unfortunate that you had to learn about this the hard way, as it is sometimes typical for a man that takes a second wife to want a third and then a fourth, in other words, he is never satisfied. Good luck with whatever you decide. Your child is entitled to all their rights, but you may not be able to take your child out of the country without his permission, as he has rights as well, and may be well connected. You may not be even entitled to a divorce, unless you can prove he has 'legally' taken a third wife, no attorney will take an internet marriage seriously. So please be cautious with your decisions.
