WHAT IS THE LEGAL STATUS OF POLYGAMY IN ISLAM?
The verse which allows polygamy “was revealed after the battle of Uhud in which many Muslims were killed, leaving widows and orphans for whom due care was incumbent upon the Muslim survivors.(Abd Al-Ati, Hammuda, Islam in Focus, The Canadian Islamic center, Edmonton Alberta, Canada, 1963, p.103.)
The translation of the verse is as follows:
If you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphans, marry women of your choice, two, or three, or four; but if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with them), then (marry) only one…. (Qur’an 4:3)
From this verse a number of facts are evident:
That polygamy is neither mandatory, nor encouraged, but merely permitted.
That the permission to practice polygamy is not associated with mere satisfaction of passion. It is rather associated with compassion toward widows and orphans, a matter that is confirmed by the atmosphere in which the verse was revealed.
That even in such a situation, the permission is far more restricted than the normal practice which existed among the Arabs and other people at that time when many married as many as ten or more wives.
That dealing justly with one’s wives is an obligation. This applies to housing, food, clothing, kind treatment..etc., for which the husband is fully responsible. If one is not sure of being able to deal justly with them, the Quran say: “then(marry) only one.” (Qur’an 4:3)
This verse, when combined with another verse in the same chapter, shows some discouragement of such plural marriages. The other verse plainly states:
“You are never able to be fair and just as between women even if it is your ardent desire…” (Qur’an 4: 129)
The requirement of justice rules out the fantasy that man can “own as any as he pleases.” It also rules out the concept of “secondary wife,” for all wives have exactly the same status and are entitled to identical rights and claims over their husband. It also implies, according to the Islamic Law, that should the husband fail to provide enough support for any of his wives, she can go to the court and ask for a divorce.
The verse says “Marry,” not kidnap, buy, or seduce. What is “marriage” as understood in Islam? Marriage in Islam is a civil contract which is not valid unless both contracting parties consent to it. Thus no wife can be forced or “given” to a husband who is already married.
I is thus a free choice of both parties. As to the first wife:
She may be barren or ill and see in polygamy a better solution than divorce.
She may divorce him (unilaterally) if he is married to a second wife provided that the nuptial contract gives her the right of unilateral divorce (Ismah).
She can go to court and ask for a divorce if there is evidence of mistreatment or injustice inflicted upon her.
But if polygamy is discouraged and loaded with such constraints, could it have been better if the Quran simply forbade it? To answer this question, we may have to raise another one:
For mentally retarded person(s) — who is/are deadly against polygamy & idealize West Imposed Perimeters they must watch & read the followings:

Islami Aih-kamat Kee Hikmat Say Itna Bair-
Jub Behas Chal Paray Tu Badalta Hay Gaeer-
Hum Nay Bhee Thani Hay Kurna Issko Hay Dhair-
After studying above mentioned article over the women about the marriage specially polygamy, it recalled my structure of the actual shaping of islam towards a man.Commonly such marriages are not taking place according to the cited statement by Quran and Hadiths now a days. I intend the best if one goes under such type of passages and ponder over it deeply.

This samina khawar hayat must be the most degraded woman in pakistan. I have watched her n few tv shows. She has no manners at all and uses the most vulgar language. Yeh bazooro aurat ab pakistanio ko shariat sikhae gi. Shame on the people who have elected her and on pakistani press which has provided her publicity.
i salute mrs smaina khawar for her bravery and intelligence. she is one of my favorite personality. i salute her for her boldness and determination. i pray of her success in the field of politics and ALLAH give her the most higher ministery of pakistan to impose Islamic Shariah in the country which is achieved with name islam but still islam is not made the law of pakistan.
