Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it part of good treatment of the wife to seek her permission when intending to take another wife?
Answer:
No, this is a right of the husband; he does not seek her permission. If he were to seek her permission, she would not grant it; she would not give him permission. Rather, she would become angry, cry, scream, and hit. He does not seek her permission; this is his right. However, he must not wrong her; he must not wrong her. He must treat her well and be just with her.
