What is the standard for justice between two wives: giving equally or according to need?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is justice in financial maintenance giving each wife and her children equally, or giving each wife and her children according to their need?

Answer:
Financial maintenance is according to need; he gives each woman what suffices her, and women differ in this regard. So if he gives each woman what suffices her, he has been just.
