Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
It is a thoughtful and timely work that addresses one of the most misunderstood and sensitive topics within the Muslim community: polygyny. In an age where emotions, culture, social pressure, and personal desires often overshadow divine guidance, this book seeks to return the discussion to the teachings of the Qur'an and the Sunnah. Written by Ibrahim Teslim Abdullahi, this book does not merely advocate for polygyny, nor does it approach the subject from a place of sensationalism or selfish desire. Rather, it asks a critical and necessary question: Who truly qualifies to practice polygyny according to Islam? Through detailed reflections, practical insights, and authentic Islamic references, the author explores the responsibilities, emotional maturity, financial capability, justice, leadership, sincerity, and fear of Allah required from any man considering more than one marriage. The book also highlights common abuses, misconceptions, and cultural manipulations surrounding polygyny while reminding readers that marriage in Islam is an amanah (trust) that must be handled with wisdom and accountability. Drawing lessons from the lives of the Prophets, the companions, and righteous generations, this work challenges Muslim men to examine themselves honestly before pursuing polygyny. It equally serves as a guide for families, students of knowledge, community leaders, and anyone seeking a balanced Islamic understanding of the subject. More than just a discussion on marriage, this book is a call toward responsibility, justice, self-discipline, and obedience to Allah. It encourages readers to separate genuine Sunnah practice from ego-driven pursuits and to uphold the sacred institution of marriage with dignity, fairness, and taqwa.Whether one agrees with polygyny or not, this book invites every reader to reflect deeply on what Islam truly demands from men who seek to carry such a weighty responsibility.
