Why is it forbidden to be married to two sisters at the same time?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The wisdom behind the prohibition of marrying two sisters concurrently lies in avoiding the jealousy and disputes that would arise between them, leading to discord and estrangement. What is desired, however, is the continuation of love and affection between them. This prohibition prevents jealousy from arising between those whom the Sharia intends to maintain complete affection.
