Boleh tak kahwin isteri kelima semasa isteri keempat dalam idah?

Tidak semasa idah talak raj'i, kerana isteri dalam idah raj'i masih dikira isteri; had empat isteri masih penuh. Bagi idah ba'in (khuluk, talak tiga, atau talak raj'i yang telah tamat idah), mazhab Syafi'i membenarkan suami berkahwin dengan isteri baharu sebelum idah bekas isteri tamat. Hukum yang sama terpakai untuk berkahwin dengan adik-beradik perempuan bekas isteri. Di Malaysia, sebarang perkahwinan poligami tetap memerlukan kebenaran mahkamah. Rujuk fiqh poligami dan idah & rujuk .

Can one marry a fifth wife while the fourth wife is in her ʿiddah?

Not during the ʿiddah of a revocable (raj'i) talaq, because a wife in a raj'i ʿiddah still counts as a wife; the limit of four wives is still full.
For an irrevocable (ba'in) ʿiddah (khulʿ, triple talaq, or a raj'i talaq whose ʿiddah has ended), the Shafi'i school permits the husband to marry a new wife before the former wife's ʿiddah ends. The same ruling applies to marrying the former wife's sister.
In Malaysia, any polygynous marriage still requires the court's permission. Refer to fiqh of polygyny and ʿiddah & reconciliation.

Difference between schools. Shafi'i and Maliki: allowed during an irrevocable (ba'in) ʿiddah. Hanafi and Hanbali: not allowed until the former wife's ʿiddah ends, whether revocable (raj'i) or irrevocable.
