*The Real Justice - Men with more than one wife:*

بسم الله الر حمان الر حيم

*Fairness As Regards Giving Gifts:*

Whoever has two or more wives has to treat them fairly. It is not permissible for him to single out one of his wives with regard to spending to the exclusion of the others.. And there is a stern warning issued to the one who has two wives and does not treat them fairly. 

 *Evidence:* 

Hadeeth narrated from Abu Hurayrah (RA) that the Prophet (saw) said: *“Whoever has two wives and favours one of them over the other, will come on the Day of Resurrection with one of his sides leaning (ie- Paralysed).”* 📚 Narrated by al-Tirmidhi (1141), Abu Dawood (2133), al-Nasaa’i (3942) and Ibn Majaah (1969). 

And,

We all know that, people ressurrected with physical challenges can not enter paradise.

Now,

This evidence indicates that it is obligatory to treat co-wives fairly and equally, and that it is haraam for the husband to incline more to one of them in a way that will hurt the other. This does not include the inclination of the heart, for a person has no control over the inclination of the heart. 

Hence,

The prophet (saw) used to divide his time equally among his wives, and he said: “O Allah, this is my division of that which I can control, so do not take me to task for that over which You have control and I have no control” [meaning love in the heart].... For more on why it is not possible for any man to have equal love (50-50) for his wives, pls read episode 2 & 3 of this article.

Based on this, it is not permissible for any husband to single out one of his wives with regard to something over which he has control (eg accommodation, feeding, clothing etc).

For Instance,

If u always choose to give one of ur wives gift of either money, materials or items without giving the other ones, it is injustice.. Yes.. Even ordinary recharge card, a man shouldn't give one of his wives and deny the other ones.. Yes.. Don't say the other one did not ask me of the recharge card.. Buy for all of them (the same amount).

And,

It is possible that your 2nd wife asked u of say N100 recharge card for instance.. And 1st wife's phone have developed fault.. Don't say 1st wife's phone is bad.. Buy N100 recharge card for the 2nd wife who requested it and take N100 cash to the 1st wife as a gift.. And u don't need to tell her that, it is for recharge card I bought for so and so.. Yes.. Allah (swt) knows and sees ur intention.

Now,

From Episode one of this article to Episode 15, we were able to dwell on certain qualities of every RESPONSIBLE Senate President of every family (ie - the husbands).. And these include: *Issue of Family Economy, Family Supervision, Husbands Transferring Aggression to their wives, Practicing Forgiveness, Husbands Who Engage In Extra Marital Affairs, and the Justice or Injustice amongst wives.*

Insha Allah, our next episode of this article will dwell on advising Senate President to every family to *Be Clean and good-looking* at Home Also.

TO BE CONTINUED....

Allah alone knows best.
