1823. March 2.

man of the persuasion should in future be allowed to keep under his the bonds of that contract more women than one.
In the a limitation of this kind there will be no invasion of religious
liberty by the Koran the having more than one is not made
matter of obligation: in a word such plurality the sort of pluralism in question is an injustice,
in which, even when Mahometamism reigns, a very
small number of men are partakers in comparison of the whole. The first wife

whence a man might engage to live and cohabit cohabit with him,
no power should be allowed to him.

if his possessions should be the same in the case of Mr
as in the case of a Christian. In this could Neither in this would
there be any invasion of religious liberty, so long as the power
were left to a man of the persuasion to adopt the give to his property by his last will
is given to it by the Mahometam law.
