The group stated its stance on Tuesday through its National Chairman Ulama Council Sheikh Sani Yahaya Jingir while speaking with newsmen in Jos.
According to Jingir, Islam has spelt out in the Holy Qur'an that a man could marry one to four wives if he wishes so, adding that the proposed law would deny men their right to do so.
Sheikh Jingir called on the Emir to engage in massive and wide consultation with other Islamic scholars in order to proffer better solutions to the problems and challenges bedevilling marriage in northern Nigeria.
Jingir further argued that with the rate of divorced women and widows who have lost their husbands to insurgency, it would be inappropriate for the law to be implemented at this moment, saying that the said women would be left to face the harsh reality of life without support.
Sheikh Jingir however urged married men to discharge their responsibilities according to Islamic law, warning them that everyone would account for their deeds in the hereafter.
