The questioner : I will ask a question outside the scope of television and devices and so on. The question is within the framework of the family. A man has abundant wealth, and the first thing he does when his wealth increases is to think about marrying another woman in addition to his wife, not for the purpose of building a family, but for the purpose of pleasure.

The Shaykh : May you be in good health, may you be in good health, may you be in good health - he laughsThe Shaykh : And the students - ..

The questioner : Is there nothing wrong with him, our Shaykh?

The Shaykh : Do you mean you want him to act in a forbidden manner?

The questioner : No, I am asking about the purpose.

The Shaykh : It is permissible, yes.
