Do muslims have something right

[BoRED S2upid]

if a husband fails to satisfy his wife sexually - or vice versa - it is considered grounds for divorce under Islamic law.


Sounds good to me. Can't see it being grounds for divorce in this country.

[Benny Saltstein]

My old man, a divorce lawyer, knew a case where a marriage was anulled (sp?) because the groom was too bladdered to fulfil his conjugal duties. It might also have been that he was drunk during the ceremony.

Marrying a munter and needed the good ol' Courage-in-a-bottle?

I'd like to see religious text support/sources for that claim.

First line or second?

I thought that non-conjugation of a marriage was grounds for a divorce ?

Supposedly, any muslim is free to leave the islamic religion, as religion "should not be a matter of duress".

Try telling that to those who have dared to renounce the religion of their fathers tho'.

Oh, and let's not forget that killing is supposedly forbidden by islam as if you kill one man, "it is as if you have killed all of creation".


Oli.

Annulled on the basis of failing to consumate the marriage is not that unusual.

Nah, don't think that is a stoning offence, I think adultery or getting raped are the main ones for a stoning. And nope, I didn't read that in the Daily Mail

Is it mandatory to "perform" on the wedding night?

I think I was too knackered TBH and Mrs K woke up to face it the following morning

That was very decent of her.

Why would you marry someone you haven't shagged yet? You need to be sure they're not a crap shag or it's all time wasted.

My wife was a Virgin when we married. She's a good shag when she can be bothered.

Slightly off topic,

"Do Muslims have something right?" - Probably just as much as Christians. Just depends on how "Westernised" you are really doesn't it?

As an atheist I have less problems with Muslims than Christians. In my experience when you take the politics out of Islam it's far more tolerant than Christianity.

The extremities are all faiths are complete and utter wkers of course.

Breaking in a virgin is all well & good but I always question peoples commitment if they've only ever shagged one person. Also how can a virgin tell you your a good shag if they've only done one person?

The temptation to stray must be huge, especially as you know once you've done one your not as uneasy with it all and it doesn't have that deep meaning it did 1st time.
