"At least with a one night stand there's no lasting reprecutions."

Have you lost your mind? How many innocent women here in Qatar have contracted stds because their husbands had "harmless one night stands" in Thailand, Lebanon, Dubai, Bahrain, etc.? No one talks about it in public, but if you listen carefully enough, you will hear some horror stories!

Secondly, there is no doubt that marriage is better than fornication and adultery. So it IS better to have two wives then have one wife and be adulterous (eagerly waiting to see how the haters respond to that). That being said, as brothers we have to fear Allah and be just if we take that step. It is sad but true that many men don't fear Allah concerning their wives. However I have noticed that a bad husband is a bad husband no matter how many wives he has! So we ask Allah to make us better husbands toour wives. Ameen. Before ya'll start hatin, I have one wife.
