Talking about his views on the subject, Hamza iterated some significant rules of polygyny, “The Ayah about four marriages in Islam has come under specific extraordinary conditions. I think the Ayah came after War of Uhad when the women and children were despondent on streets and there were no social institutions to look after them”.
He further said that by Allah’s command, men at that time were asked to take care of the orphans and marry their mothers. Hamza went on to say that the scripture also mentions that doing justice to multiple wives is very unlikely so it is advisable to marry only once.
