denial is not a river in egypt :: Reader comments at Daniel Pipes

Submitted by mz ravin black (United States), Apr 8, 2008 at 14:15

by the holy quran a man is entitled up to four wives only stemming out of the effects of war...in addition, is only allowed to have more than one wife if he can afford them...so, if this man in scottland is breaking the law...he obviously can not afford both wives or give moral support to both wives...

it is apparent that he has the two wives as a front for something else...

winning an arugment based on the holy quran works well in some situations...whereas, in others the argument really comes down to whether or not the Phrophet Mohammed indeed believed that...

the holy quran is wrote based on words of the angels...it is tough, not really going in depth here...
