Aure isn't all about providing food, shelter, and clothing to ur spouse, its more than that...u cant have two wives ka aje daya a kano daya a kogi, baka zuwa wurin wacca take kogi sai after two months and ko ka je u just spend only two days ka dawo kano, wannan ba adalci bane, if u knw baka da time gara ka zauna da Matar ka daya yafi ma ka alkhairi,   da maza sun san zunubin da yake cikin rashin adalci da dayawa baza suyi shaawan Kara aure ba....Allah ya bawa mazaje ikon yin adalci"
