Bigamist? edit

A search for "Taleb Abu Arar bigamist" gives hits such as this one. From what I understand, he's married to one woman and has another woman semi-officially recognized as his mistress. In the Hebrew Wikipedia there's an article about polygamy among Israeli Beduins, and according to it this type of arangement is quite common. Tzafrir (talk) 20:58, 11 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Tzafrir, re: your link to "Common-law marriage#Israel" and continuing "...as his mistress" (italics mine), kindly note: The latter word in English refers to a woman outside the family framework with whom the man has an intimate liaison, thus inappropriate here. This biography page would benefit from expansion on MK Abu Arar's marital status based on content in the corresponding Hebrew Wikipedia page, but would require sources in English for confirmation. -- Deborahjay (talk) 11:29, 5 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
