ISLAMABAD: The Council of Islamic Ideology (CII) today declared a clause of the Muslim Family Law Ordinance 1961 as un-Islamic.

CII Chairman Maulana Mohammad Sheerani said it is not mandatory under Sharia to seek permission for the second marriage to first wife.

The CII unanimously declared the clause as un-Islamic.

The said clause makes it mandatory for a man to seek permission of his wife for a second marriage.

Maulana Sheerani said that a husband is bound to do justice to all his wives as per the Sharia. – SAMAA

Well, I haven’t married one yet… but may help some desperate souls looking for another opportunity!!!

Long as they don’t mind wife 1 and their kids possibly hating them for the rest of their lives or wanting to divorce them..

Easy to just take another wife.. not so easy dealing with the consequences..

(I’ve never believed it’s mandatory in Islam for the husband to take his first wife’s permission but do know he has to announce he’s done it.. he’s not allowed to hide it or lie)
