Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A Sudanese resident in the Kingdom named (Jafar S.) says: I am a married man, and I intended to marry another woman, but I concealed that from my wife, for if I informed her, she would naturally object. What is the ruling in Islam regarding my concealing this matter from her? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
There is no blame on you for concealing it from her; but once you have married, you must be just, you must be just between them, unless the latter agrees to not having her share of the time, in which case there is no harm. Otherwise, you must be just, dividing the time between this one and that one, equally, yes.
The presenter : May Allah bless you, and may Allah reward you with the best reward.
