Best Answer

Muslim men are allowed to marry up to four wives. However there is strict policy in this. If the husband cannot deal with them fairly he is ordered to marry only one.

Allah says in Chapter of Women (chapter no 4 verse no 3)

"And if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphangirls, then marry (other) women of your choice, two or three or four but if you fear that you shall not be able to deal with them justly then only one that your right hand posses.That is nearer to prevent you from doing injustice"
