'Selfish purposes': HC says polygamy being widely misused in Islam
The New Indian Express Kozhikode
|May 17, 2025

The bench, comprising Justice Arun Kumar Singh Deshwal, said polygamy had been permitted, conditionally, by the Holy Quran in early Islamic times for rehabilitation of widows and orphans after heavy wartime casualties but now the said provision was being misused for 'selfish purposes'.
