Understanding Marriage, Polygyny and Divorce | Real Talk | Dr. Tesneem Alkiek
Does Islamic law give men rights it doesn't give women? Dr. Tesneem Alkiek and host Cadar Mohamud work through the rulings Muslim women find hardest to sit with, beginning with polygyny and the colonial history that shaped how we react to it.
Dr. Alkiek while placing significant emphasis on the conditions and responsibilities that constrain its practice, and draws the line between what is legally valid and what is religiously legitimate.
The conversation then turns to why a Muslim man may marry a woman of the Book when a Muslim woman may not, and how ʿUmar ibn al-Khaṭṭāb addressed concerns about the practice and its potential consequences for the Muslim community.
