Transition From Monogamy To Polygamy Are Two Different Institutions-Professor Tawakkaltu

By Muhammad Goronyo, Sokoto


Professor Tawakkaltu Oyebode Tahir who happens to be the author of a book titled “A Room Of Her Own,Transition From Monogamy To Polygamy”, said the book was borne out of the passionate desire to change the negative narratives of Polygamy in the Muslim community.
Unveiling the book at Tamaje Civic Hall, the author added that it is a book that intends to serve as a wake-up call to Muslim men and women to fear Allah in their marriages as well as to see that Islamic Polygamy becomes a win-win for men and women, that it becomes a tool for the building of a unified and enviable Islamic homes and not a tool for destruction of homes among others.
Professor Tawakkaltu further explained that in recent times, there have been unpleasant stories of women who take rash decisions in response to their husbands’ desire to pursue Polygamy and lack lack of information on how to navigate the overwhelming emotions that naturally accompany the transition is one of the major contributions to some of those reactions ” we have witnessed “.
While reviewing the book, Professor Amamatu Maishanu Tambuwal said a woman is married for four reasons as ” her beauty, her wealth, her lineage or her faith and good character “.
” In many books I read that talked about Polygamy, none elaborated fully on the Polygamy, most of the authors viewed Polygamy from the perspective of a man only as nobody can understand the situation of Polygamy unless the person has the experience.
“In fact, Polygamy is just like a labour during child birth and only the woman that has gone through it understands it”.
The chief launcher, Yakubu Mu’azu Mayana and speaker after speaker all commended the author for the tedious work she has undergone.
They all agreed that going by their educational standards, they had never come across such a book that explains thoroughly what Polygamy entails.
