As a bright, eager student at Cambridge University, with one degree already under her belt, Nabilah Phillips could look forward to a successful career and comfortable future.
After completing her engineering PhD she would, perhaps, take up a coveted, highly-paid job in industry, or stay on as an academic lecturing the next generation.
Instead, however, Nabilah, now 35, took an extremely unexpected path.She abandoned her studies, forfeiting her hard-won university place and entered a polygamous marriag e, becoming the second wife of London businessman Hasan Phillips, 32 who has since acquired a third wife.
Nabilah, her husband and his two other wives are part of a growing number of polygamous marriages taking place in Britain. They are rubber-stamped under Sharia law, which considers polygamy completely legitimate as Muslim men are permitted to take up to four wives.
It is, of course, in complete contradiction to UK law, under which bigamy is illegal and can result in a prison sentence of up to seven years.
But as such marriages are not recognised by English courts and around 70 to 75 per cent of Muslim weddings go unregistered those who marry under the system are not subject to prosecution.
As a result, the practice is becoming increasingly commonplace across Britain, with 20,000 polygamous marriages now estimated to have taken place here.

I can see how there could be jealousy problems, as jealous as a woman can get of another one in a chador.
Saudi women only wear their black bags (abayas) OUTSIDE of their homes. As soon as they come indoors they take off their ABAYA. THAT'S what the Saudi women call the black bag they wear over themselves.
The IRANIAN women wear the "chador."
If they were living in different quarters, however, they would never see each other in a different garb.
“the Sharia max is 4”
Remember ‘quadraphonic sound’?
I had an Electraphonix.
Electra? Phonics? Phoenix?
Four women, one in each corner of the room reminding you to do things, complaining, ululating, banging their heads on the ground five times a day.
Quadraphonics.
Electraphonix was a cheap quad stereo because I figured it was a fad. Four speakers, 8 track player, turntable, kerosene-fired.
I kind of doubt they would let any of the ladies get near any of the others.

I read a speech that Winston Churchill gave about Muzzies. He nailed it.
In all the harem scenes I’ve ever seen, they’re all as cozy as Miss Kitty’s girls at the Long Branch.
Yeah...if I was rich and could I would go with four...any more than that would be overkill. The older ones would keep the younger ones in line as far as household chores and the like - and the younger ones would keep the older ones motivated to do, well - you know. You could play them off against each other - somewhat - and it should be a great situation. But you better not run out of money (no, no).

Figured you were going to suggest the apathetic British citizen.
I lived and worked in Saudi for two years. All over the country - Riyadh, Dhahran, Tabuk, Taif, and Khamis Mushayt (sp?). On one particularly vexing day after dealing with the locals I remarked 'let's just take the oil and when it's gone they can go back to buggering sheep'.
His reply:Go back to? They've never stopped.
A Christian friend that grew up in Lebanon said it was amazing to watch the demographic consequences of the polygamy; it quickly transformed a 50:50 state into a Muslim state (hence the civil war in the 1970s).
Hasan Phillips and his three wives Nabilah 35, Sakinah 33, and Anub 41. Having already been through a divorce, Nabilah, originally from Malaysia, signed up to a similar matrimony service specifically looking for a married man.
The wives occasionally meet when Mr Phillips, who as well as being a businessman also works for a charity aiming to spread the word of Islam, organises family outings.
She has two children with Mr Phillips, who has six in total, and helps to run his import-export business. But abandoning her high-flying academic career was not her only change after she married. She also began wearing the Muslim veil, the niqab.
First migration wave to non-Muslim host country. Appeal for humanitarian tolerance from the host society.
Attempts to portray Islam as a peaceful & Muslims as victims of misunderstanding and racism (even though Islam is not a race).
High Muslim birth rate in host country increase Muslim population.
Mosques used to spread Islam and dislike of host country & culture.
Calls to criminalize Islamophobia as a hate crime.
Threatened legal action for perceived discrimination. Offers of interfaith dialogue to indoctrinate non-Muslims.
We can’t scoff at England’s immigration policy. It’s no different from ours.
Stop Mohammedan immigration now.
“She has two children with Mr Phillips, who has six in total”
Let’s see. Divorced another man but already has two children to Mr. Phillips!
Her free education funding as a single mother with two children must have run out!
With this type of destructive crap I’d want to secede from Britain too.
