Is it permissible for a Muslim man to marry another woman and live in her house?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no harm in a man marrying another woman if he is reasonably certain he can achieve justice between his wives. There is no objection to the husband living with his second wife in her home if she agrees to it, for she has the right to relinquish her right to a dwelling, and she may demand it whenever she wishes.
