An-Nisa’
وَإِنۡ خِفۡتُمۡ أَلَّا تُقۡسِطُواْ فِي ٱلۡيَتَٰمَىٰ فَٱنكِحُواْ مَا طَابَ لَكُم مِّنَ ٱلنِّسَآءِ مَثۡنَىٰ وَثُلَٰثَ وَرُبَٰعَۖ فَإِنۡ خِفۡتُمۡ أَلَّا تَعۡدِلُواْ فَوَٰحِدَةً أَوۡ مَا مَلَكَتۡ أَيۡمَٰنُكُمۡۚ ذَٰلِكَ أَدۡنَىٰٓ أَلَّا تَعُولُواْ
3And if you fear that you shall not be able to do justice (regarding bridal-money) to the orphan-girls (then don’t marry them) rather you should marry from other women which pleases you, two or three or (up to) four, but if you fear that you will not be able to treat them equally, then be contented with having one wife only. (And if you cannot fulfil rights of even one wife) then marry a slave lady which you have (according to the Islamic law). In this way, there is less chance of your totally leaning towards one woman (while ignoring the rights of others unjustly).(Also Surah An-Nisa :129).
