Muslim man allowed to have multiple wives if he can treat them equally: Allahabad HC
Thursday, 15 May 2025 () The Allahabad High Court has stated that Muslim men can marry more than once if they treat all wives equally, referencing Quranic permission for polygamy under specific conditions. This ruling came during a case involving Furkan, accused of bigamy and rape for marrying without disclosing his existing wife. The court dismissed the charges, acknowledging Muslim law allows multiple wives, and ordered further investigation while protecting Furkan from coercive action.
