Dr. Shabir Ally addresses Quran 4:3, which is frequently used to legitimize polygyny. He explains that the verse is conditional, emphasizing equity towards orphans and their moms instead of giving a blanket consent to men to have numerous wives. Dr. Shabir clarifies that the section was logical to when numerous Muslim men had died  in battles, leaving behind orphans and widows needing care. He focuses on the significance of justice as it is featured over and over in the verse, and alerts against confounding it as an overall endorsement of polygamy. This misinterpretation frequently prompts injustice, especially towards the first wife and the children involved. The discussion concludes with a reminder to adhere closely to the verse's original context and intent to avoid such injustices.
