A group of Saudi men have announced a plan to form a society to promote polygamy in Saudi Arabia, Al Hayat local newspaper reported on Sunday.
Doctors, engineers, religious scholars and university professors are among the 100 founders of the society, in which eight percent of overall members are women.
The key founder of the society, Ataallah Al Abar, told the newspaper that he had submitted official documents to process the establishment of the society.
"We will be promoting men to marry more than one woman and females to accept such trend to give the chance for single women to have partners," Abar said, citing that there are more than two million unmarried women, including widows and divorcees.
The society will have a website that will be as a marriage matching portal for both men and women.
Polygamy is common in Saudi Arabia that implements all Islamic rules, as the religion allows a man to marry up to four women at the same time.
