Harems?
#1
Harems?
I find Islam simply baffling at times.

I do however find some of it's history fascinating and intriguing. For instance the great Islamic rulers of Turkey and Baghdad had no want for female companionship https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harem.


My quesiton is, does Islam allow a harem? that is a number of concubines for the.... companionship of one man/husband?

Are concubines.. allowed?  I can why some Mohammadens would want it, but I doubt the Mrs. would approve of such a living arrangement Undecided .

I am simply wondering how you went from wanting no female companionship to harems.

I do want female companionship. A nice, lovely, kindhearted wife, with a humble heart, and a limited sex drive.

I just wonder about these things and wonder if Islam actually approves of them.

Dammit if that isn't a perfect Sarah Palin impersonation.

Bravo!

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

My knowledge on this faith is limited but Haram is basically the female household and access by men is extremely restricted. The wife, the concubines, all female relations. They all dwell there.
When we're talking concubines in this context we're basically talking sex slaves. They would typically be reserved for royalty. As far as I can tell the quaran is pretty clear on its attitudes towards concubines. You can take concubines from the rival tribes as you're conquering, killing and converting them. They're spoils of war. Religion of peace indeed.
The bible has similar rules, it just has more contradictions that have emerged over time allowing them to be ignored through cherry picking. Thats really the only difference between religions; time. Islam has not had as much time to work on their PR campaign so its now coming to blows with civilized society.
