POLYGAMY IN ISLAM & PAKISTAN – SUPREME COURT’S VERDICT
(PLD 2017 SC 187)
We have made this video explain the religious and legal aspects of polygamy in Islam and Pakistan. While Islam permits a man to have multiple wives under conditions of justice and fairness, Pakistan’s Muslim Family Laws Ordinance, 1961 imposes legal restrictions. A husband must obtain prior approval from his first wife and the Arbitration Council before contracting another marriage.
The Supreme Court of Pakistan has upheld this requirement, stating that failure to seek permission can result in legal penalties, including fines and imprisonment. The video also discusses the rights of the first wife, consequences of unauthorized polygamy, and legal remedies available.

MARRIAGE:
Marriage according to most Muslim jurists is a contract and the parties to a marriage must be adults, of sound mind, have attained puberty, and be able to give free consent to marriage. Marriage without consent is void. At the time of marriage, the husband is under an obligation to fix ‘Mehr’ or dower in favor of the wife. Under Islamic jurisprudence, the following marriages are considered void:-
- Marriages within the prohibited degrees, consanguinity, affinity, and fosterage.
- Marriages of an adult and the sane person are brought about without his/her consent.
DOWER:
Dower is known by several names, including Mehr, Sudak, Nuhlah & Akr. It is the property which is incumbent on a husband to give to his wife, either by reason of it being named in the contract of marriage or by virtue of the contract itself as opposed to usufruct of the wife’s person. The dower can be in different forms namely, proper dower, specified dower, prompt dower, and deferred dower. The wife may remit the dower, or any part thereof, in favor of the husband or his heirs, but the remission must be with free consent.

Marriage in Pakistan can be dissolved in the following ways:
- Talaq by Husband – The husband can divorce his wife at his will without court intervention.
- Mutual Consent – Both spouses can agree to end the marriage without going to court.
- Judicial Divorce (Khula) – The wife can seek a court decree for dissolution on valid legal grounds.
- Delegated Divorce (Talaq-e-Tafweez) – If the marriage contract grants the wife the right to divorce, she can exercise it.
Each method follows specific legal procedures under Muslim Family Laws Ordinance, 1961 in Pakistan.

A successful marriage requires patience, understanding, and mutual respect. Many relationships face challenges, but key principles can help retain and strengthen the bond. Communication is the foundation, both partners must express their thoughts openly while also listening to each other. Compromise and trust play a crucial role in overcoming misunderstandings. Moreover, fulfilling each other’s rights, as emphasized in Islamic teachings and legal precedents, ensures stability. The Supreme Court of Pakistan has also ruled on cases reinforcing the importance of resolving disputes amicably rather than rushing towards divorce. By following these principles, couples can maintain a happy and lasting marriage.
