Ill Emirati wives ask husbands to marry again…

Two Emirati wives suffering from serious illnesses set an example of love and sacrifice when they asked their husbands to marry again.

Their husbands were equally loving and sacrificial and rejected their wives’ requests.

The two separate cases have been handled by Dubai’s government family guidance centre which said it was struck by such mutual feelings.

The first case involved a woman who is suffering from cancer and wanted her husband to have another wife after she felt she no longer can please her husband.

“She came to us after she failed to persuade her husband to marry. She said her husband had taken her to numerous clinics and hospitals for treatment but doctors failed to cure her,” the centre’s chairman Abdul Aziz Al Hammadi said.

“When we told her husband, he again refused. He then went to her and said: “I am satisfied with my life with you. I am only concerned with your health and will be with you forever. I will never marry another woman.”

Quoted by Emarat Al Youm daily, Hammadi said another wife who has been bed-ridden because of bone and blood illness tried to push her husband to marry, saying she no longer could carry out her duty for him and was feeling that she was unfair to him.

“She told him ‘please have another wife. I am satisfied and want you to be satisfied, but he replied: ‘Thanks for your feeling for me but I am satisfied with my life with you. Yhe most important is your health’.”
