Multiple wives ?? Turkey?

Question

I saw on TV somewhere that in Turkey you can have 3 wives is it true? and isn't that against Islam??

just for the record i would legalize it the more the marryier i always say :D

Answer 1

Well.. Islam allows till 4 wives but advices only doing it when a man is able to treat them equally.. While woman are allowed to be married to just one man at a time.. And concerning law, it's completely legal.

Answer 2

Same but other way around for women!

You know that movie 300, i found out that the spartans believed in allowing and supporting their wives to sleep with other spartan men as it was seen as helping them grow stronger in numbers. I thought wow the women must have had loads of babies back then lol

Answer 3

It's not legal, but many in rural areas (especially Kurdish areas) still practice polygamy.

Answer 4

Against Islam? I always thought Muslim men were allowed to marry multiple women!

Answer 5

islam says you can have 4 - osama has/had 4
