Polygamy or plurality of wives is one of the controversial questions connected with the family system of Islam. It should be noted that in many Muslim societies today the practice of polygamy is rare since the gap between the numbers of both sexes is not huge. One can, safely, say that the rate of polygamous marriages in the Muslim world is much less than the rate of extramarital affairs in the West. In other words, men in the Muslim world today are far more strictly monogamous than men in the Western world.

It is of interest to note that many, non-Muslim as well as Muslim, countries in the world today have outlawed polygamy. Taking a second wife, even with the free consent of the first wife, is a violation of the law. On the other hand, cheating on the wife, without her knowledge or consent, is perfectly legitimate as far as the law is concerned! What is the legal wisdom behind such a contradiction? Is the law designed to reward deception and punish honesty? It is one of the unfathomable paradoxes of our modern 'civilised' world. It should be remembered that the custom of polygamy existed before the advent of Islam among the Jews, the Arabs, the Persians and many other peoples of the world. All that Islam has done is that it restricted it.

Lighting is the application of light. What we do with lights, where we place them, how much area we light with them, what color “white” light we choose, what shadows we cast, or which artwork we accent––the effects we create––this is lighting.

As we get older we need more light, but it must be more shielded, balanced, and
uniform light.

Lighting that is the most effective for an application while using the least amount of energy can be considered energy-efficient.

Lighting for universal design is lighting that grows and shrinks as we do; it lives with us, and adapts to our needs.
