why some Islamic countries such as the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia are permitted for a man to take more than one wife?

Polygamy, the practice of having more than one spouse, is permitted in Islamic countries such as the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia because it is allowed in Islam under certain conditions.

In Islamic law, a man is permitted to marry up to four wives as long as he can treat them all fairly and provide for them equally. This practice is based on verses in the Quran and teachings of the Prophet Muhammad.

In some cases, polygamy may be seen as a way to provide for widows and orphaned women who may not have any other means of support. It can also be a way for a man to have a large family and fulfill his religious duty to procreate.

While polygamy is allowed in these countries, it is not common practice for most Muslims. Marriage is seen as a sacred bond in Islam, and many Muslims choose to have only one spouse. Polygamy is typically only practiced in certain circumstances and with the consent of all parties involved.
