Sorry but 100? In Islam it's 4 and I highlighted the reasoning behind it. I didn't understand what you meant about women being denied choice though?
Maybe you missed what I said but the woman has to 'allow' the man to marry more than one wife. That's a choice.
@Karin, no only men can have 4 wives, it doesn't work vice versa.
@jass, your quesetion implies that all women who allow their husbands to have more than one wife are not educated. Which of course is a completely untrue generalization.
I personally will marry one wife and only one wife. Just because it's written in the Quraan, it doesn't mean you HAVE to marry 4 :P and not that all women WANT their husband to have 4.
As for your friend's reasoning for marrying three wives. I guess each person has his own reasons, but his reason is just stupid and IMO goes against Islam.
As for Qatari men who marry foreign women and then Qatari women, 1) it's an excuse to say they want to make the family happy or 2) it can actually be true. I've heard of it before.
Remember, Qatar is a country which is amazing because of it's heritage and the fact that the new generations are changing it so much.
^_^ It's impossible to generalize Muslims, or Middle Easterners, or Arabs, or Qatari's :)
