And if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphan-girls, then marry (other) 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 only one or (the slaves) that your right hands possess. That is nearer to prevent you from doing injustice.
(An-Nisa 4:2)

Assalam alaikom sister beth (ang pagpapala ng Diyos as sumaiyo),
Bilang lalaki ay ginawa kmi ng Diyos na madaling ma-attract sa babae, eto ang nature ng lalaki, kmi ay ginawa ng Diyos na ganito. The thing that allures man more than anything else in this world are women.

The Quran says in (Chapter)Surah 3: 14, "Fair in the eyes of men is the love of things they covet: women and sons; heaped-up hoards of gold and silver; horses branded (for blood and excellence); and (wealth of) cattle and well-tilled land. Such are the possessions of this world's life; but in nearness to Allah is the best of the goals (to return to)"

So makikita natin dito sa verse na eto ang chronology o pagkasunod-sunod ng mga bagay na nakaka-attract sa lalaki at nangunguna sa listahan ang babae 'coz we are made by God like this dangan nga lang ay mas maganda kung napalaki ang mga bata na may takot sa Diyos o di kaya ay alam nilang may kaparusahan ang ginagawa o gagawin nila na kasalanan ay mas nahahadlangan na ang lalaki ay mangaliwa ika nga.

Gamitin na lang natin example ang isang lalaking kristyano at isang lalaking muslim.Bilang isa dating kristyano(catholic to born again to islam) at bilang isang sakristan at gitarista ng simbahan, ako ay napalaki na every time na magkakasala ang isang tao ay mangungumpisal sya sa pari or tatawag kay Hesus(sumakanya nawa ang kapayapaan) at malinis na ang listahan ng kanyang pagkakasala. Ngayon sa kabilang banda naman ay titignan natin ang isang muslim na bata na pinalaki ng magulang in a way na may nag-iisang Diyos na dapat sambahin at lahat ng kasalanan na kanyang gagawin ay may karampatang parusa dito sa buhay na eto at sa kabilang buhay, sa tingin mo kaya sino ang mas hindi gagawa ng kasalanan? in a common scenario, mas nakakagawa ng kasalanan ang isang kristyanong lalaki in my own experience bilang isang kristyano dati dahil alam ko na every time na magkakasala ako ay mangungumpisal lang ako at mawawala na naman ang aking kasalanan whereas ngayong muslim na ako, kahit na gustong gustong kung mambabae o uminom ng alak o kumain ng paborito kong baboy dati ay pinipigilan ko na ang aking sarili dahil alam kong hindi ito ikakalugod ng Maykapal at kapag ito'y aking ginawa ay may karampatang parusa eto na dapat kong pagbayaran.

Ika nga ay nasa tao lang iyan pero kung ang isang tao ay napalaki na nalalaman nya na walang sasalo ng kanyang kasalanan ay mas nahahadlangan nya ang kanyang sarili na magkasala at eto ang aming pinaglalaban ay nawa'y bigyan kmi ng lakas ng Allah(swt) na makayanan itong aming pagpipigil sa aming mga sarili na tumingin sa ibang babae hanggang sa aming kamatayan.Ameen.


The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.” (Deuteronomy 24:16)

The son shall not bear the inequity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son; the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him”. (Ezekiel, 18.20).

"Each soul earns on its own account: and no bearer of burden shall bear the burden of another." (Qur'an 6:164)
Whoever does an atom of good will see it, and whoever does an atom of evil, will see it. (Quran 99:7-8)

assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh,

alhamdulillah

and the 4th requirement/prerequisite to marry more than one upto four wives is

4. the assurance to fulfill the obligation to do justice and equality among the wives

as the most important requirement, mentioned in our evidence by the scholar, Sheik Yusuf Al-Qaradawi, as an explaination of the ayah in the Quran:

Anyone who lacks the assurance that he will be able to fulfill all these obligations with justice and equality is prohibited by Allah Almighty from marrying more than one woman, for Allah says:

"But if you fear that you will not be able to do justice (among them), then (marry) only one..." (An-Nisa': 3)

Masha'allah bro...ang sarap naman ng iyong panaginip...;)....

There are 3 requirements/prerequisites to marry more than one.
1. financially capable
2. physically capable
3. time for family

Because the woman is the weaker partner in the family relationship, Islam places strong emphasis on the importance of being fair to women, and not to abuse them in any way. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) describes those who are kind and good to their wives as the best of people. He (peace and blessings be upon him) is reported to have said: "The best among you are those who are best to your households; I am the best among you to my house-hold."

On his deathbed, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) continued to remind the followers of three areas as needing continuous attention. The first concerns man's relationship with Allah while the other two are concerned with human relations, concentrating on the need to protect the rights of two vulnerable groups in society, namely, women and slaves. He said repeatedly: "Attend to your prayers. Do not ask those whom your right hands possess to accomplish for you what they cannot do. Fear Allah in your treatment of women.""

The above quotation is excerpted, with modifications, from: www.islamicity.com

Focusing on the necessity of being just among wives, we'd cite for you the word of the eminent Muslim scholar, Sheik Yusuf Al-Qaradawi, in his well-known book, The Lawful and the Prohibited in Islam. He writes:

"The condition which Islam lays down for permitting a man to have more than one wife is confidence on his part that he will be able to deal equitably with his two or more wives in the matter of food, drink, housing, clothing and expenses, as well as in the division of his time between them. Anyone who lacks the assurance that he will be able to fulfill all these obligations with justice and equality is prohibited by Allah Almighty from marrying more than one woman, for Allah says: "But if you fear that you will not be able to do justice (among them), then (marry) only one..." (An-Nisa': 3)

And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Anyone who has two wives and does not treat them equally will come on the Day of Resurrection dragging one part of his body which will be hanging down." (Reported by the compilers of Sunan and by Ibn Hibban and al-Hakim)

The equal treatment mentioned here pertains to the rights of the wives, not to the love the husband feels towed them, for equality in the division of love is beyond human capacity and any imbalance in this regard is forgiven by Allah Almighty who says: "And you will not be able to do justice among (your) wives, however much you may wish to. But do not turn away (from one of them) altogether..." (An-Nisa': 139)

This is why the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to divide his time among his wives equally, saying, "O Allah, this is my division in regard to what I can control. Then do not take me to task regarding what Thou controllest and I do not control" (Reported by the compilers of Sunan), referring to the attachment and affection which he felt for one particular wife. And when he planned to go on a journey, Allah's Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) would cast lots among his wives, and the one who was chosen by lot would accompany him. (Reported by al-Bukhari and Muslim)"
