Adakah isteri kedua perlu ikut cakap isteri pertama?

Tidak — tiada hierarki ketaatan antara isteri; setiap isteri hanya taat kepada suami dalam perkara makruf. Isteri pertama tidak boleh mengarah isteri kedua, dan sebaliknya. Namun, menghormati yang lebih tua dan lebih lama dalam keluarga adalah adab yang baik, dan isteri kedua yang merendah diri biasanya memudahkan penerimaan. Suami bertanggungjawab menetapkan peraturan yang adil untuk semua — giliran, perbelanjaan dan urusan bersama — supaya isteri tidak perlu bertelagah sesama sendiri. Lihat hubungan sesama madu .

Must the second wife do as the first wife says?

No — there is no hierarchy of obedience between wives; each wife owes obedience only to her husband in what is right. The first wife may not give orders to the second wife, nor the other way round. Even so, respecting those who are older and have been longer in the family is good manners, and a humble second wife usually makes acceptance easier. The husband is responsible for setting fair rules for everyone — the rotation, expenses and shared matters — so that the wives do not need to quarrel among themselves. See relations between co-wives.
