The Position on Media Campaigns to Abolish Plural Marriage
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We have received many questions, some of which concern this topic, so there is no harm in starting with it, if Allah wills. The first of these questions says: We hear and see in the Islamic media what calls for the abolition of plural marriage. How is this possible?
Answer:
This is like what I have heard. It must be read to him, and the Ministry of Media must put a stop to this and not follow those who have been influenced by the enemies, or who took tapes from the enemies and distributed them among us. The scholars must also clarify this and replace these malicious bulletins and malicious series with good bulletins and series that call to Islam, exalt the matters of Islam, and spread the virtues of Islam. This is the obligation of the ministry, the state, and all the scholars. Therefore, we ask Allah to facilitate this for the stranger.
