BRAINSTORMING LOOK AT THE Following TOPICs AND COME UP WITH LOGICAL ANSWER WITHIN 5 Seconds (1 MIN PER STUDENT)
TOP 20: Polygamy Lola Shoneyin's grandfather had five wives and her grandmother, the first, never forgave him. But she was shocked to find that polygamy is still prevalent in Nigeria. I find this disturbing on so many levels: (1) That polygamy is going on in Canada, (2) That anyone would want to have more than one spouse, and (3) That some of these “brides” aren’t even old enough to babysit as far as I’m concerned, but they have their own children. www.dawahcorps.com JubailDawah Center
TOP 20: Polygamy Islam is a practical religion. Islam is centered on the well being of the community rather than the individual. The Quran is the only revealed text which has LIMITED the number of spouses. Everyone practices it in some form; Islam is the only one which has set strict guidelines.
