UK: 100,000 Muslims sign up for polygamous dating site
“100,000 Brits sign up for polygamous dating site helping Muslim men find multiple wives,”
RT, October 24, 2017
A website that helps Muslim men find “second wives” in Britain has more than 100,000 users registered, it has been revealed. The practice has been accused of opening women, often younger than their husbands, to physical abuse and even trafficking.
In the UK, polygamous marriages – in which a person has more than one spouse – are only recognized if they took place in countries where they are legal. British law, however, does not stop unregistered religious ceremonies from taking place.
Most Muslims in Britain do not practice polygamy, but some interpretations of the Quran say that a man may marry two, three, or four women, so long as he can deal justly and fairly with each of them.
SecondWife.com creator Azad Chaiwala says the website came from his “need” and “thinking there’ll be other people in my situation.”
“There are other deceiving ways of doing it – affairs, prostitution etc – those are not necessarily good for relationships,” he told the BBC.
“Here it is more honorable.”
Around 100,000 people have signed up – with men outnumbering women three to one, Chaiwala said. He denied the website was just for men, however.
“It takes two hands to clap; a guy can’t do it on his own. We’ve got so many successful marriages and so many women signed up themselves… they are opting to enter this kind of relationship.”
Yasmin Rehman of the Centre for Secular Space told the Daily Mail the website is “deeply dangerous” and called on politicians to step in.
“He’s promoting inequality and exploitation of women, and undermining what marriage is about. And he’s making money out of it.”
Rehman, who is a Muslim, added: “I think he’s flouting the law – anyone else would be subject to polygamy laws. It sits alongside websites like brides from abroad.
“I meet women who have been trafficked and prostituted. I’m fed up with this being accepted. There are Muslim women across the world fighting this, some at great risk to themselves.”…
Chaiwala says his website does not break the law, and claims it “benefits women.”

Is polygamy still illegal in the UK? If it is, then this site should be shut down. Britain, like all Western countries, is going to have to decide whether or not it is going to enforce its own laws and defend its own culture, or continue to defer to and appease Sharia supremacists until Britain is a full Sharia state. If Britain does not want to adopt Sharia in its entirety, at a certain point British officials are going to have to draw the line. But the longer they tolerate this kind of thing, the more difficult that will be to do.

It is already deployed in North West England in Muslim community – blind-eye turned by authorities. Not to mention manipulation of the social services income payments!

Many countries in Africa and middle east were Christian majority till muslims came in with their polygamous marriage and that was the end of Christianity in those countries.
Europe is heading that way.

When the TV drama, “Big Muslim Love”, appears on BBC we will know for certain that the UK is well on its way to the dystopia that results when a nation’s laws are abandoned.
The Americans financed a program that took them to the moon. The UK is financing a program that will take them to the moon-god.
