Yes. Polygyny of up to four wives is permitted. Authorities argue that having more than one wife is only permitted if the husband can love and protect his wives equally, but, in practice, this standard is not enforced.

Note, however, that Muslims often do not have the ability to request and exemption of the laws in other countries that ban polygamy of all kinds and, therefore, would not be legally able to marry two wives.

According to Islam law every man can have 1 to 4 wives. this is when they want to be with each other to the end of their life. this kind of marriage is called *DAEEM*.

there is another kind of marriage in Islam which is called *muttah* and in which the man and woman agree to be with each other for a period of time. every man can have several muttah marriages.
