:assalam: TO HAVE MORE THAN ONE WIFE YOU DON'T NEED A FATWA FROM ANY SCHOLAR(S).HOWEVER,TO ENSURE YOU WILL BE COMPLYING WITH THE RULE OF POLYGAMY IN ACCORDANCE OF THE QURAN AND SUNNA AND YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH IT,IN THIS CASE YOU NEED ADVISE FROM A PIOUS AND KNOWLEDGEABLE SCHOLAR ON THIS MATTER.AS NOWAYDAYS,SOME MUSLIMS ARE MISUSING THE RULE(S) OF POLYGAMY IN ISLAM AND THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO HANDLE MORE THAN ONE WIFE,LET ALONE 3 OR 4 WIVES.THERE WILL BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR EVERY ACTION THEY DO TOWARDS THEIR WIVES,AND IF THEY WILL GIVE MORE RIGHT(S) TO ONE WIFE THAN THE OTHERS,HE WILL COME AT THE DAY OF RECKONING AND BEFORE ALLAH TAALA WITH HIS CORPSE SPLIT UP INTO TWO.AS A MAN,I AM NOT SAYING ALL THE MEN ARE THE SAME REGARDING POLYGAMY,YOU WILL FIND GOOD AND BAD AND VIS-VERSA.IT'S NATURAL AND NORMAL TO FIND WIVES JEALOUS BETWEEN THEM AS IT HAPPENED TO AISHA(RA) WITH THE OTHER PROPHET'S WIFE WHOM SHE CALLED HER YAHOUDIYA(SHE WAS A MUSLIM),THE PROPHET(SAS) DIDN'T APPROVE AISHA(RA) ATTITUDE TOWARDS THE OTHER WIFE,BUT HE UNDERSTOOD THE WOMEN'S NATURE REGARDING JALOUSY.OBVIOUSLY,A HUSBAND CAN'T HAVE THE SAME LOVE FOR EVERY WIFE HE GOT AS THE PROPHET(SAS) DID,BUT HE DOESN'T HAVE TO SHOW IT TO THEM IN CASE HE MIGHT HURT THEM AND CREATE DISHARMONY IN THE HOUSEHOLD.EVERY WIFE SHOULD BE TREATED THE SAME,IF THE HUSBAND BUYS A GIFT HE SHOULD BE FOR EVERY WIFE,ALL OF THEM SHOULD BE EQUAL TO HIS SIGHT EVEN IF THE LOVE DIFFERRENTIATE BETWEEN THEM.I WILL END MY DISCUSSION ABOUT THIS TOPIC HERE,OTHERWISE I WOUD BE WRITING NON-STOP.IF I WAS RIGHT IT'S FROM ALLAH TAALA,AND IF I WAS WRONG IT'S FROM ME AND SHAYTAN :asalam:
