Lechery (adultery and polygamy) |
Lechery is a forbidden sin in all religions and God does not forbid something unless it is seriously harmful. Lechery leads to dangerous hygienic problems which endangers humanity with incurable diseases: a) Gonorrhea is a disease, which inflicts the person with great pain. It is carried from one person to the other by sexual intercourse. It is extremely painful, hard to cure and has many side effects. b) Syphilis is a palpable example of God’s punishment, says Dr. Mohammed Kamel Abdel. It appears after a few days or weeks from sexual intercourse in the form of a rash which even when it disappears, the microbe remains in the blood to reappear after one or two years in the form of red patches, or reappears in any other part of his body ex: the heart, brain. etc. Then it afflicts the patient with paralysis, madness, an ulcer in his kidney or his intestines. etc. Lechery also causes soft ulcer that appears in the penis, scrotum, pubic region, the anus opening and thies. Hence, it is only wise that all religions prohibit lechery Besides, lechery degenerates with man to the status of animals that care only about sex. The origin in Islam is one wife, yet as a protective measure from such diseases, Islam offers a realistic wholesome cure i.e. polygamy Islam allows up to four wives, but made restrictions to limit its practice.

Dr. El Mahgoub[1][90] says that polygamy was spread among Christians before and after Islam, and the church prohibited it without any religious grounds. He added that this was one of the reasons which made Martin Luther revolt against the church simply because Christ did not prohibit it. How Christ could have prohibited something which most of the prophets had practiced. Abraham had two wives, Jacob had four and so did Solomon, while David had many wives. It is really shocking to find the church prohibiting a wholesome, natural practice, while some churches not only permit but bless an unhealthy, irreligious and abnormal practice i.e. Homosexuality.
