Four Saudi women marry their driver
Topics: Understanding IslamBut that's not the story.
They marry him so they can live closer to work, all four of them, and agree to share their wages with him, apparently as part of the "deal."
They were married in a short ceremony, and all the women have agreed to pay the driver a share of their monthly salaries...I can see the financial benefit to the driver, but living in a house with four spouses - I'd have to think about that one.Women are still not allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia, while men can marry up to four women according to Islamic law.
