Guys like this see women as babymaking machines

Reminder: it’s about the quality not the quantity.

What is the point of getting married if not to have as many children as possible and increase the size of your clan? If you are not willing to give birth to boys that will further my lineage, what good are you?

Both my grandfathers had over 24 children each. 10 children are a compromise.

Same with me both my awoowes had multiple wives. You gotta spread your seed far Nd build many trees

I rather have a year or two without kids with my future husband just to have time togther and do things like travels.

If im capable of sufficiently providing for all my children(private school education) I will put no cap on how many I have and go with what Allah gives me.Having many children is a blessing and its best to start young as you have more energy to take care of them/be in their lives.

Not wanting kids completely is haram.

But planned parenthood were you take breaks ect isn't.

I dont think not wanting kids is haram... u dont have to have children i feel like ppl r so wrapped up with society and to pleasing society. Theres nothing in the quran that says u must have kids

I agree with the brother 100%. Girls who say that are usually in doubt about the marriage itself. They want to see whether the marriage works and if it doesn’t they can leave it without having children. Without baggage. They basically have a plan B. If you’re not 100% committed then don’t enter a marriage with someone who wants to have children.

Wouldn’t you say it has more to do with the man you married rather than having children?
