Justice Between Wives
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Perhaps you have a sister, Fawwaz from Jeddah, who says: Perhaps you have a word on justice between wives, since some husbands do not act justly in this regard?
Answer:
It is obligatory for the husband to be just between his wives in residence, clothing, and financial maintenance. He must be just in what he is able to do. These are matters in which justice is within one's capacity: residence, clothing, and spending the night with them. These are four things in which he must be just between his wives. Yes.
