@Junaid,
Good article. More than enough to explain to those who want to understand. More thann enough has already been written for those who WANT TO LEARN, but there are definitely those, who will look, but will not see, who will read, but will not understand. Talking to them is just like talking to walls. And those who question you on this information are this kind too unfortunately, as they already had a full chance to learn also before you told them, it is definitely not new stuff to them, they just pretend that they are still learning.
Allah will take care of these people, and will show them the Sirat-e-Mustaqeem, Ameen-Sum-Ameen.

Your true face is being revealed layer by layer like an onion. Dirty Onions and Dirty Indians, both smelly and even rhymes.

‘Polygamy is secret to longevity’
LONDON: Forget long walks and calorie-controlled diets, the sure shot way to live a longer life is: get a second
wife.

That’s the conclusion of a new research, which has suggested that men from polygamous cultures outlive those from monogamous ones.

After accounting for socioeconomic differences, men aged over 60 from 140 countries that practice polygamy to varying degrees lived on average 12% longer than men from 49 mostly monogamous nations, says Virpi Lummaa, an ecologist at the University of Sheffield, UK.

The latest research might solve a long-standing puzzle in human biology: Why do men live so long? This question only makes sense after asking the same for women, who - unlike nearly all other animals - live long past the menopause.

One answer seems to be a phenomenon called the grandmother effect. For every 10 years a woman survives past the menopause, she gains two additional grandchildren, Lummaa says.

It seems that doting on and spoiling grandchildren aids their survival, as well as furthering some of their grandmother’s genes. Men, by contrast, can reproduce well into their 60s and even 70s and 80s, and most researchers assumed this explained their longevity.

But Lummaa and colleague Andy Russell wondered whether other factors explained the long lifespan of men, such as a grandfather effect. To test this possibility, the team analysed church-gathered records for 25,000 Finns from the 18th and 19th centuries.

But the grandfather effect was soon ruled out. Lummaa and Russell next wondered whether the constraints of human physiology explain male longevity. If female survival is the main explanation for male longevity, then monogamous and polygamous men would live for about the same length of time. Instead, it seems that fathering more kids with more wives leads to increased male longevity. Men, then, live long because they’re fertile well into their grey years.

Guardian UK wrote about it on 23rd NOVEMBER 2008 here:

I will rephrase your lie :
there IS a lot a female foeticide in India.!!!!
You just need to read reports and statistics.
GRRRRRR There are some VERY disgusting murderers in your country “Hasshita” who are killing such young innocent angels.
Filth of the world.

1. Pls dont give historic figues. As of the last 50 years, definitely Muslims are more polygnous than Hindus. Though I see all my muslim friends having only 1 wife.
Atleast in India in the RECENT times, I guess people opt for polygamy only
due to lack of proper education/knowledge or hard hit financial reasons.
Educated, Well Settled Muslims in India RARELY opt for polygamy.
2. I do agree that there WAS a lot a female foeticide in India
As of NOW, in India, a babies gender is not revealed before
, but again,
it is only in the villages and it is out of lack of choice.. ppl are forced to do it due to monetary reasons.
And before you argue, the female foeticide among Muslims in India is higher than Hindus
on a percentage basis… Still, i firmly believe this is due to financial reasons and
lack of education again. nothing to do with religion.
3. I have no idea on Americal popluation and neither am i interested.
They are a developed country and there is no point comparing with them till we too develop.

4. Restricting each and every man to have only one wife is not practical

Here I have a concern.
Anytime, the happies COUPLE would mean 1 MAN, 1 WOMEN
in face, the term couple itself appeals to that.

I dont think any EDUCACATED, FINANCIALLY INDEPENDENT woman would be happy in a polygamy.
Again, the woman in a polygamy has compromised with life due to financial reasons.

u know what, all this aside, MONEY is the sole reason for a lot of mishaps in the world.

a small example here.
In the Warangal region of Andhra Pradesh, the poor were suppressed badly by the landlords.
This led to a lot of the poor turning into Naxalites.
For about 20 years, there was huge killings by naxals and the police on each other.
Despite all the massacre, the issue was not resolved.

Suddenly in the last few years, the strenght of naxals has diminished.
On analysing, it was found that the existing naxals have grown old and there are hardly any
new recruits.

Y are there no new recruits? Thanks to the IT growth in India, most of these poor folk
gained employment in the software industry.

Always, History is created by a few rich souls. But the people who suffer bcoz of it
are always the common folk.

Bush or Osama are just induviduals. The sufferers of their actions are COMMON, INNOCENT FOLK.

It is upto us not to get brainwashed and remain sensible induviduals.
The solution to any of the issues, be it terrorism, ethnic clensing, extremism lies in
eliminating poverty.

NO WELL EARNING PERSON WITH A HAPPY FAMILY would give up his life for any of these
extremist causes. They may lead such causes for their own benefits.
It is ultimate the POOR and INNOCENT who have no survival options who get into all this.

Imagine if Kasab comes from a well to do happy family. Why would he ever give it up to come and die in India?

The KEY to all this lies in EDUCATION and DEVELOPMENT. They would in turn make people financially strong.

Y dont all the issues we discussed in this blog ever happen in Europe ?
Simple… they cannot rercuit anyone from such places to do the DIRTY WORK for them.
EVERYONE there is earning well.

EDUCATION is the key to provide money to a nobody.

Generally I think all of this info is present even online, and if someone was looking for answers, then they could simply look for the info. However, sometimes, some people ask questions which have been answered long ago, only to argue I guess.
But anyway, very well answred

I think just presenting male to female population ratio seriously distorts the fact as it does not take into account a lot of factors that contribute towards the slight variation that can be observed in it. Taking a global ratio, the ratio comes very close to 1.01 male to female ratio. Sex ratio at birth has recently emerged as an indicator of certain kinds of sex discrimination in some countries. For instance, high sex ratios at birth in some Asian countries are now attributed to sex-selective abortion and infanticide due to a strong preference for sons. This will affect future marriage patterns and fertility patterns. Eventually it could cause unrest among young adult males who are unable to find partners. (Source: Index Mundi Website)

Now the main point that i think you are ignoring is that life expectancy of males is decreasing with an alarming rate and hence the very basis for the argument in the above blog post titled “Polygamy in Islam” stands very much true to its logic. Please find below a link to research paper that got published in Evolutionary Psychology and written by Randolph M. Nesse, Professor of Psychiatry, Professor of Psychology, Research Professor, Institute for Social Research, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. The following is the abstract that i took out for the easy reference of our readers for the purpose of this discussion:

This paper extends the evolutionary understanding of sex differences in mortality rates by quantifying and graphically examining the overall Male to Female Mortality Ratio (M:F MR) for 11 specific leading causes of death across age groups in the USA, over the course of the lifespan in 20 different countries, and across the past 70 years in 5 countries. The resulting quantitative descriptions of rates, trends, and the relative contributions of various proximate causes of death to the M:F MR provide an initial exploration of the risks associated with being male. This analysis also illustrates how sex differences shaped by sexual selection interact in complex ways with multiple aspects of culture and environment to yield a pattern that has some consistency across decades and societies, but also has variations arising from differences among cohorts and cultures. The results confirmed our expectations of higher mortality rates for men than for women, especially in early adulthood, where three men died for every woman who died. For external causes the ratios were even higher. Historical mortality data reflect an epidemiological transition in which discrepancies between male and female mortality rates increase as general mortality rates fall. Cross-national variation in the modern M:F MR further suggests a universal pattern that is influenced by cultural and environmental context. Being male is now the single largest demographic risk factor for early mortality in developed countries.

Therefore, we should not look at few numbers in isolation and avoid selective reading.

3. Hindus are more polygynous than Muslims
It was true until the Government banned this practice as you rightly stated. This rule is specifically for Hindu’s in India and not for the Muslims. India does not have a unified civil code as yet so as to not hurt religious sentiments. The other example of such liberation is using loud speakers at night. Indiann law prohibits anyone from using loud speakers within a residential locality from 10PM to 6:30AM but relaxed for the Mosques for their morning prayers.
I am not sure if you know the Mahabharata story when you point out Polygamy of Krishna, you should also have made known the Polyandry followed by the Pandhava’s who were followers of Krishna.
Polygamy was persistent in India until 1954 and I am not sure of the percentages you have mentioned above or the present percentage (I am sure it is very low now). There are no Hindu Scripture either advocating Polygamy or monogamy. I will be surprised if you ever find one. Hinduism however advocates marriage and expects every Hindu to be married. The ultimate aim for any individual following Hinduism is “Moksha” (liberation). To attain Moksha a person should give up all worldly pleasure be it relations, money, fame, sex!! etc. Hindu scriptures also state to completely attain Moksha a person should have enjoyed all these pleasures before giving it up. Lord Buddha is referred as a incarnation of Lord Vishnu who gave up his wordly pleasures before taking up Sanysa (renunciation), Buddism evolved from this very reincarnation.

Sexual disease tranmission is more in Polyandry than Polygamy!!!!! But how? A infected Male can transmit the disease to all his wives and vice versa. Can you please support your claim I am unable to comprehend this.

Man is more polygamous by nature as compared to a woman.
I would agree to you on this point but I would expand it to “Every species tries to expand their kind and thats nature and hence males tend to be more active”.

Biologically, it is easier for a man to perform his duties as a husband despite having several wives.
Valid point, Women loose interest in sex once they pregnent till off spring birth since they want to ensure their offspring is well taken care of.

But as I have substantiated with figures above Male Population is greater than female population till the age of 64 and thereafter the female population is higher. We all know post 65 there is little any Male / Female can do to expand their kind :-)

I agree female population has better life expectancy but from the figures above it is only after 65 years do they beat the male population.

Lets take UAE a Islamic Nation
at birth: 1.05 male(s)/female
under 15 years: 1.05 male(s)/female
15-64 years: 2.74 male(s)/female
65 years and over: 1.84 male(s)/female
total population: 2.19 male(s)/female (2008 est.)
Do you even wonder what the studs do? Does Polyandry make sense here?

US statics need to read between fine lines as below, note US has a lot elderly people and hence obscene ratio you have.
at birth: 1.05 male(s)/female
under 15 years: 1.05 male(s)/female
15-64 years: 1 male(s)/female
65 years and over: 0.72 male(s)/female
total population: 0.97 male(s)/female (2008 est.)

Nature controls the population of males (XY chromosome) and females (XX chromosome). A clean probability is 50% either way and thats the way it should be.
