History of Polygamy Among the Arab Nations

The Arab Quraish is high mobility, they live in a valley surrounded Bakka desert Hijaz. They live with only graze livestock in the desert sand in such a coarse. If they want more prosperous, they have to trade, while trade center at that time there are only two, in northern Syria (the Roman and Persian traders), in southern Yemen have (Madagascar traders, and the far east). That is the two areas closest trading
They have two seasons. Mecca if they are cold to the Yemen, and if hot, they were to Syria, as mentioned in the letter of Al-Quraish. Because trade with the terrain so heavy, there were wars with the robber and the robber and demanded physical strength. So the average trade is the men. And many of them killed a violent encounter terrain.

So the condition appears, first, the widow and children of displaced who manage, second, because they trade in the nomadic tribe-nomadic tribe, and many men who died, then the small fleet of war, the fleet trade weakened, it must again be the number of dead men continue to maintain the nomadic tribe. There men who should be left with a lot of marrying many women, giving birth to a boy who many, strengthen the fleet of war and trade.

Now, polygamy is required there. This picture Arabia at that time. Polygamy is a demand from the era, which at that time dominated patriarchis, power domination of men based on the physical. Of course in polygamy as it will appear a lot of distortion, the treatment is not proper.

Since the number of the wife so much, then do not get all the good treatment. So the children are to be completely neglected. People tend to ignore orphan because children tend to take themselves and their families. So, what was reasonable, occurs naturally, but it occurred after the distortion and misuse, Islam came to make a correction.

But when Al-Qur'an speak polygamy, not the Koran actually encouraged to marry more than one to two, three and four. But dozens of polygamy which is a four maximize. And four also have a fair, if can not just one.
