Which is correct: the one who believes that polygyny (up to four wives) is better for satisfying lust, even if it sometimes leads to injustice and neglecting children, or the one who prefers masturbation over marriage after the death or divorce of his wife, and strives to have only 3-4 children, to avoid the responsibility of raising a large number of children and the problems of pleasing wives?

Both individuals erred and were correct. The first was correct in advocating for marriage to more than one woman for someone who is not satisfied with one, but he erred in permitting the abandonment of justice between wives and in downplaying the importance of raising children. As for the second, he was correct in describing the responsibility and magnitude of raising children, and that pleasing wives is an unattainable goal, but he erred in preferring the forbidden act of masturbation over marriage.
