The results of this study found several things, namely: polygamy in the text of the Koran and the hadith of the Prophet there are similarities and no differences were found, even the hadith of the Prophet became a reinforcement of the Koran about the limits of permissibility of polygamy with conditions apply fairly. Whereas polygamy in the text of the Bible is permitted without limitation on the number of women being polygamy and not being fair, even though Christians forbid polygamy.
