Abstract
In Pakistan, polygamy is a serious problem that requires legislation to address. Pakistani law imposes confinement through the Muslim Family Law Ordinance (MFLO) of 1961, which states that no man can marry for the second time without the first wife's consent, but polygamy is not prohibited in the meanwhile. In Pakistan, these rights are routinely violated. The purpose of this research is to look into Pakistan's polygamy difficulties. According to Islamic law, marriage is a civil contract between two people, a man and a woman. It generates all rights and obligations straight now. Nikah is more than simply a contract; it's a way to formalise a man and woman's relationship and recognise it as authentic. In order to prevent breaches of women's and children's rights, the study has identified deficiencies in relevant legislation and recommended amendments to the MFLO of 1961. The findings show that the practice of polygamy has negatively affected the rights, equity, and legal security of women in Pakistan.
