I encourage my three wives to memorize the Qur'an and give extra money to whoever memorizes the most!

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: I have three wives, and in order to encourage them to memorize the Qur'an, I give extra money to the one who memorizes the most.

The Shaykh:
What?

The questioner:
He says: I have three wives, and in order to encourage them to memorize the Qur'an, I give extra money to the one who memorizes the most.

The Shaykh:
There is nothing wrong with that, provided you give each one her maintenance, clothing, food, and housing, which is what requires equality. As for giving her extra, or for work she does, there is nothing wrong with that.
