If it is the case that there is absolutely NOBODY other than a non-Muslim, male doctor to treat her, then he can treat her but there are some details, like she would have to have an Islamically valid reason, such as, she is in a lot of pain or she has a great concern. So if a woman is seeking to find a child to treat herself, she doesn’t go and find any random child, she seeks the child who IS a medical professional, if there is one. Although it is possible to find a child who is knowledgable in the medical field. If a child isn’t qualified, then you don’t go to the one who isn’t qualified. No one was saying to go to a young child who ISN’T QUALIFIED in the matter. If a Muslim woman can treat her, is there a reason for a man to look at her body? No, etc. We resort to the one who is already allowed to see and touch her. If her husband can treat her, is there a reason for another person to look at her body? No, so then there is no excuse in this case. Since there are urgent situations, there are exceptions to the rule. The reason for these details is because there is a fundamental rule that people have to stick to:Ī man cannot look at other than the face and hands of a marriageable woman i.e., a woman who isn’t his wife. “The most beloved of people to me is ^A’ishah.” Islam wife wives Hadith Ayah Qur'an text post question answer sheikh Ra'id said polygyny Ahlus Sunnah Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama^ah Even the Prophet used to love some of his wives more than the others, as he said: It is also not a condition to love them equally, because that is not something one controls. Also he does not have to have sexual intercourse with his wives in an equal way, for that is difficult. Therefore, one does not have to give them the same gifts. If he spends two nights with one, then he must give two to the other(s), and he cannot give more than three consecutive nights to one without the permission of the other(s).He cannot lodge them in the same house without their acceptance. If he spends a night with one, he must spend it with the other(s). He must support them all (and that does not mean he must spend the same amount on them all), and he must spend time with all of them. Also, it is not generally said that marrying more than one woman is recommended, or that marrying only one woman is recommended, for it depends on the case of the individual.Įquality between the wives has two dimensions: time and support. This is in reference to the person who knows he cannot treat his wives fairly in the obligatory way, such as providing food for one and leaving the other without food it is forbidden for him to marry more than one while knowing this of himself. There is no verse of the Qur’an that means that it is better to marry one woman that is not the meaning of the verse: I will answer this for the education of the people.
