Fariq Naik – Polyandry vs Polygyny

The sixth most common question is

that

if Islam allows a man to have more than one wife, why does Islam

prohibit a woman from having more than one husband?

As far as this is concerned, Allah subhanaw taala says in the gloves

for an incident Nyssa chapter number four was number 24. While

more salah, twin and Nyssa.

Do not marry a woman who already is married,

the Quran says that you cannot marry a woman who already is

married.

Before I discuss the real reason, imagine there is a scarcity of

finding husbands. And if a woman has more than one husband, this

will increase the scarcity. This will multiply the problem. Let's

analyze what are the logical and scientific reasons why Islam

prohibits a woman from having more than one husband.

If you analyze, when a man has more than one wife, and the child

who's born out of wedlock, you can easily identify the mother, as

well as the Father. Whereas when a woman has more than one a husband

and the child who's born out of wedlock, you will be able to

identify the mother, but you will not be able to identify the

Father. And today, the psychologist they tell us that it

is very important for the child identification of the parents,

especially the Father.

And if you happen to admit your child at school, and if they ask

you, What is your father's name, you might have to give two names.

And today, medical science tells us that man is more polygamous in

nature as compared to the woman

and are warious changes that take place in a woman menstrual cycle,

that she cannot do the role of multiple wives simultaneously. But

as a man can do the role of multiple husbands simultaneously.

And if a woman has more than one husband,

then there are high chances of Vendrell diseases being

transmitted everywhere we transmitted to the man. Whereas if

a man has more than one wife, there are very less chances of

these diseases being transmitted.

So even scientifically, it is not a problem for a man to have more

than one wife. But it is problematic for a woman to have

more than one husband.
