Lol, yes I was wondering what were their ages but concluded that Asad must be around 27, whilst Ayaan is around 23/24 (but given his looks, he looks like a teenager😆)

Zoya is around 21/22 so maybe Nikhat is around that age too as Muslim girls (well, from what I've seen) get married around that age...

Nazma is still at college right? So...around 18/19?

Well, I guess it depends on where you live and there is no specific rule that you should be married young. My parents have been married for almost 30 years( as from next year) and at that time my mom was 20, which was quite unlikely, so it depends on when YOU want because Islam allows you to make that choice. I have some cousins who have been married at 18 others at 24 and some at 25 still unmarried, so it depends. I personally will not be ready for marriage until am not 26/27😆 which means there is still around 9-10 years to go and am safe😆

About your post, yea a Man in Islam is allowed to have more than one wife at a time. But then he should have the permission on his current wife and there are some specific reasons as to why he can do so. If am not wrong(will confirm it when I have time) he can remarry in case his wife is not fertile or if a woman is in trouble or whatsoever so for her not to do wrong things and all it's better someone marry her, but then only after having the permission from the other wife or wives. And once he has one than one wife, he ought to treat all equally, to put it simple I mean to say that let's say he sleeps with one, then he does it with the other. I mean he will have to spend equal amount of time with each of them. Some would say that if one has a child, the other should have one too, that is, if she is able to have one. And since it is quite difficult to you know give all equal treatment, that is the reason as to why nowadays we don't really have cases of polygamy. And polyandry I don't think is allowed.
