So... do wives try to make their husbands sin just a bit, so they don't get the 40 virgins and the wives can have them all to themselves in heaven?
The husband acquiring more wives raises her status. It is not unheard of for a wife in some cultures to nag or disrespect their husband for being unable to support more wives, leaving her with a lesser role than what she hoped for.
