📜 Akad nikah · #31

Can one marry one's wife's younger or older sister?

It is forbidden to be married to two sisters at the same time; but it is not a permanent prohibition.
Allah forbids "taking two sisters together". The Prophet ﷺ also forbade joining a woman with her aunt (paternal or maternal). If the wife dies, or is divorced and her ʿiddah has ended, only then may the man marry his former wife's sister. A contract with the sister while the wife is still married to him or in the ʿiddah of a revocable (raj'i) talaq is invalid. See Mahram.
