Man marries two women at same time - but honeymoon detail hazy

A Saudi man married two women at the same time, on the same day and at the same wedding hall. But it was not clear if he spent the start of the honeymoon with both.

A big wedding party was held for the groom and his two brides at the main wedding hall in the western Saudi town of Makkah, Okaz daily said, adding that the move by the unnamed groom had triggered many “positive and negative” reactions.

“Some of them considered it as a foolish act and other saw it as a brave move…some said they believe the move would open the door for similar marriages in the Kingdom.”

Under Islamic law, a man can have four wives at a time but women are allowed to have one husband at the same time.
