In fatwaa 10610 you have said that a man will have 2 wives from the world? What if a man has 4 wives in the world? what will happen to the other two?

Answer

Two human wives are the least. Hence, if a man had four wives, he could be reunited in Jannah with all of them, Insha Allah.

This is in the case where those wives did not remarry after his demise.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
