Abstract
Historically, the practice of polygamy was practiced before Muslims, the arrival of Islam in terms of polygamy is more regulating, fortifying and limiting the number of wives to a maximum of four, with conditions that must be fair. This is done more to protect women. The previous community was a natural thing for this marriage to be carried out especially for the authorities, merchants or influential people with certain objectives. Law No. 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage in articles 3, 4 and 5 clearly regulates the implementation of polygamy with the principle that marriage in Indonesia based on Monogamy. Polygamy is allowed as a way out if someone has been able to meet the conditions specified, which in principle the requirement to close the door of polygamy.
