๐ In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
๐ Sample thoughts of almost every first/second/third/fourth wife who welcomes polygyny for Allah's sake:
๐ญ "I love my husband so much that I can't share him with another woman, yet the love I have for Allah the Almighty is far greater than the affection and compassion I have for my beloved spouse, thus Allah the Most Loving enlightened me to stay patient. Lovingly submitting to Allah's Will, I'm contentedly fine if my man is married to up to four wives. It's his absolute right granted by Allah the Most Wise which cannot be denied. While his tender lips may have touched those of so and so, his sweet gestures often mesmerizing this and that, my dear husband still remains as my destined other half. Our love may be vividly complicated that its formula to me may be more complex than the most intricate algebraic problem devoid of an apparent solution, yet because my love for Allah the Most Generous is a lot weightier than loving my soulmate, as Allah's Magnificent Wisdom in His Destiny supersedes infinity, I choose to love my hubby for Allah's sake faithfully, stubbornly and patiently. Loving my husband has deemed me obscurely estranged by many critics who can't comprehend my choices since they obviously do not know me. This love has made me cry numerous times when I'm preoccupied with saying Du'as to Allah the Most Merciful, late at night during Tahajjud, praying that Allah forgives my husband for those times when he unknowingly keeps me worried with perplexing anxiety, wondering how he's doing and before he retires to sleep in another city I ponder if he too often thinks of me. Don't ask me questions like "But what can you see in him?" nor naively claim "C'mon, you're still young. There are plenty of fishes in the sea." because ever since Allah Al-Hakeem connected my heart to that man's so we became each other's halves, I fell peacefully in love - a special box of emotions entangled to each other into a tightened knot which I refuse to untie as I'm not the kind that wants to satisfy enemies by abruptly giving up.
I want our love to continue Inn-sha-Allah until we make it to Jannah Paradise above, where all desires are met, Muslim loved ones are reunited, and where we'll look back to our former tests which we've passed with Allah's Will, and we become even more grateful that we didn't stop doing the good deeds that made us earn Allah's Love."

Ali Al-Qari said, "That she prostrates to her husband is due to the number of his rights over her and her difficulty in maintaining gratitude for them. This rhetorical point conveys the obligation of the wife to obey her husband in his rights. Indeed, prostration is not lawful to anyone other than Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala."
