  The topic of polygamy, is one of the most challenging issues of marriage in Islam, that has many agrees and disagrees. Advocates believe that apparently the commandment of remarriage has been stated in the third verse of Sura Nisā. However, this verse because of its structure and tying the order in which to two condition, has some ambiguities that the interpreters of two sects have given various opinions for their solutions. One of these ambiguities is the relationship of first part of this verse which is expressed in terms of condition with the second part and its penalty. In this research, after explanation of different views on interpretation of this verse and with surveying the narrations and verbal evidences and other reasons, a new interpretation of the verses is presented upon which, the commandment of polygamy is extracted from its absolute and unconditional status and is limited to particular circumstances and social necessities. In this article, according to the verses of Quran failing of polygamy from Islam’s viewpoint has been concluded. The Quran, with statement of difficult condition of possibility of remarriage (As: Observation of justice between the wives, even in exceptional circumstances and for certain people) attempts to express that polygamy is close to impossible. Regarding to this issue that Islam has a comprehensive expression that expresses individual and social commandments, in this case, the topic of polygamy can be included in exceptional issue of marriage that the Quran refers to it with the expression of its particular circumstances.
