Military Assault Spoils Fourth Wife Dream of This Father-of-36
July 17, 2014 10:23 IST




Bannu, Pakistan: Pakistan's ongoing military operation may be making headway in clearing militant hideouts, but it has shattered the dream of one father of 36 children - to take a fourth wife.

Gulzar Khan is one of hundreds of thousands of people who have fled the North Waziristan tribal area since the army moved in to clear longstanding bases of Taliban and other militants.

Escaping the military advance meant leaving the 35-room house he shares in the North Waziristan village of Shawa with around 100 family members, including wives, children and grandchildren.

The 54-year-old grumbled that paying to transport his brood used up the cash he had set aside for his fourth marriage.

"The money I had saved was consumed in relocating my family from Shawa to Bannu and now I have again started saving and waiting for the operation to conclude," he told AFP.

Islamic law permits men to take up to four wives and in Pakistan's deeply conservative northwest, large families are the norm.

But after giving birth to a dozen children each, Khan said, his wives had told him enough was enough.

"I was planning to have a fourth marriage because now my wives have boycotted me and told me 'no more children'," Khan said.

"They do not allow me to go near them, but I have desires I want to fulfil."

'I needed more'

Khan was 17 years old when he married his 14-year-old cousin in Shawa. They had eight daughters and four sons, but after eight years, the amorous tribesman got married again, to a 17-year-old.

"I was not satisfied and needed more of it - I mean the love-making," Khan told AFP at his 17-room house in the northwestern town of Bannu, where the bulk of people displaced by the military operation have taken refuge.

"I do not indulge in adultery and sinful acts so I satisfy my natural desires lawfully by marriage," said Khan, who worked as a taxi driver in Dubai from 1976 to 1992.

Khan's third wedding came when he married his brother's widow when he was killed in a dispute just a month after tying the knot himself.

Two of his sons now work as drivers in Dubai and the money they send home helps support the extended family, along with income from Khan's farmland in Bannu and Shawa.

"My sons send up to 50,000 rupees ($500) every month from Dubai and we make ends meet with this money," Khan added.

He said there were no disputes between his three wives, all living under the same roof, but he admitted he struggled to remember who was who's mother.

"I can tell you that he or she is my child, but I cannot tell with all of them who is his or her mother," Khan said.

As tribal custom forbids women from speaking to men outside their family, AFP's reporter was unable to seek the views of Khan's wives on the matter.

Conjugally happy

Khan said he had no problem feeding and clothing his family, but with so many people around, there was little privacy.

"Often there are two to three kids lying around me when I go to sleep, so it's difficult to have a private moment with my wives," Khan said.

Asked if he used any drugs like Viagra to perform, Khan said that he never felt the need.

"I had a heart attack 12 years ago and also have an ulcer, and my doctor had advised me to stay happy," Khan told AFP.

"I am happy only when I perform my conjugal rights."

Pakistan's 180 million-strong population is growing by more than two percent a year, according to the United Nations Population Fund, which said in late 2012 that a third of Pakistanis have no access to birth control.

Some observers have warned that unless more is done to slow the growth, the country's natural resources - particularly water - will not be enough to support the population.

But Khan's 14-year-old son Ghufran has no such fears.

"God willing I will also have several marriages and produce even more kids than my father," he told AFP.

You have your rabbits we have ours, but yours are unbeatable!!


The world's biggest family: The Indian man lives with 39 wives, 94 children and 33 grandchildren.

Try to beat that! :wave:

The world's biggest family: Ziona Chan has 39 wives, 94 children and 33 grandchildren | Mail Online
Ziona is the head of the Pu Chana páwl, a Christian sect formed in June 1942.

He is just one aberration.

He is one rabbit in one hole.

In Pakistan you have warrens and networked to expand!

In Pakistan your males are allowed to marry FOUR wives.

Check out the Maths and it will ll show you how you added like rabbits to your population inventory.

And to make the situation worse is the horniness that is ingrained in your psyche.

Why do Pakistani men have a roving eye?


Tackling the roving eye syndrome will require radical change, through education and a shift in values to abolish such behaviour

What is up with Pakistani males and their need to objectify every female that crosses their path?

I emphasise on the word Pakistani because having lived in the West, I have never come across a culture or society where men have such difficulty lowering their gaze.


It is something that has to stop!

Not only does it make a woman feel uncomfortable, if not naked, it is an extremely degenerate and distasteful trait in men. Married men, who indulge in it when their wives are sitting right next to them, are particularly loathsome.

It starts the minute I land at Islamabad airport right to when I reach my final destination. Whilst sitting in the car and minding my own business, you have motorcycles roaring past with their passengers peering into the car having seen the silhouette of a woman from the rear window. I honestly feel I have Elephantiasis, a gross enlargement of a limb, or some monumental flaw on my face which is the cause of such unjustifiable attention.

There are some women out there who actually get some sort of an appalling pleasure out of these stares and dress to impress just to fish up more looks.

I, for one, am not one of them at all.

Some unfortunate husbands and brothers keep their women covered from head to toe to prevent these stares but they don't realise that sometimes even that is futile.

In England or Canada, the most a woman gets is a person looking at you once and then looking away. At most, she'll get a couple of looks, anything more than that is considered staring and ultimately, very rude.

I know there are many other important things that are on the priority list of what needs to be changed in Pakistan, but this is something that needs to be discussed and alleviated. If we claim to be a Muslim country with emphasis on men "lowering their gaze" to protect their modesty, then it should be implemented as well.

The question remains on how to go about changing this habit. Maybe it should be discussed and talked about in the media or in some sort of public forum but the topic itself is perhaps absurd for national TV.

How do you even discuss such ogling or even acknowledge that men have this problem?

Most of the time men are in complete denial!

Muslims in India are allowed to have more than one wife, same as in Pakistan. I believe the size of muslim population is almost the same in both countries.
Is this the reason behind high growth of muslims in India?

Like I said, we have our rabbits, you have yours.

Muslims of India are saner and have come to terms with reality beyond the religious permissiveness.

They have realised that quotas alone cannot uplift them from the abysmal depths that they have reached due to over exercising their religious options of breeding endlessly. The income is meagre, the money earned does not add up to education, clothing and feeding.

Most are no longer indulging in polygamy and are also using contraceptives.

That is the difference.

That is why they are now in the reckoning and care two hoots for these silly sops of quotas.

The Muslims of India are on the move and not cowering under religious dogmas!

Sources indicate that there are no statistics on the prevalence of polygamy in Pakistan (Professor of Law 8 Dec. 2013; Gender Studies Consultant 11 Dec. 2013). In correspondence with the Research Directorate, a professor of Law at the Warwick Law School, indicated that polygamy is not widely prevalent (Professor of Law 8 Dec. 2013). According to the Professor of Law, polygamy "though accepted as part of a religious and cultural tradition, is not approved of and the second wife is not normally welcomed into the family" (ibid.). In correspondence with the Research Directorate, a Gender Studies Consultant in New York and Pakistan, indicated that, in her view, "socially and culturally polygamy is not liked by common people," although it exists in some segments of Pakistani society (11 Dec. 2013).

In contrast, in correspondence with the Research Directorate, the Manager of Advocacy at Shirkat Gah, a multifaceted Pakistani women's rights organization (n.d.), said that "polygyny" [the practice of a man having more than one wife (Oxford n.d.)] is "common" (11 Dec. 2013). Also in correspondence with the Research Directorate, the Secretary-General of the Women Employees Welfare Association (WEWA), a Pakistani women's rights organization that provides, among other services, legal assistance and counselling to women, indicated that polygamy can be found among families in Pakistan (11 Dec. 2013).

In correspondence with the Research Directorate, a representative of the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP), indicated that polygamy in Pakistan is "rare," outside of feudalists, particularly in Sindh and Southern Punjab, and religious extremists (HRCP 12 Dec. 2013). According to the Gender Studies Consultant,

it is common among feudalists and affluent land holders who can conveniently afford to keep and maintain more than one wife and multiple children. Again, it is present among the urban elite too. Urban middle class men face economic constraints and social resistance for second/third marriage. It does not mean that it is totally absent here, but the number of polygamous marriages is very low. The lower class, whether urban or rural, also face economic constraints for getting married a second time. (11 Dec. 2013)

Fertility rate of Pa'astan is an average of 3.3:thumb:
Fertility rate of India is an average of 2.5.

Remember a rate of 2.1 is just enough to keep the population constant and small increases in this number like say to 3.3 means a massive boom as time progresses. The resident paki derailer's cherry picking is pointless(This is expected as he's learned from the best, as can be seen in yesterday's electricity discussion with his guru, the attani-waala from tallel failel Cheen)

Plus the usual these numbers are going in opposite directions yada yada...
