“…So far, two viewpoints exist on studying resistance in the Arabic language and culture, first, from the perspective of the resistance itself, specifically against colonialism and political authority (Hamdy 2017), and second, based on the way of resistance, namely by using linguistics, literature, humor, and the media. Linguistic behavior is associated with resistance to colonialism (Ngom 2002).…”

The issue of polygamy in Arab society is rarely published in the media. Since the emergence of social media platforms in 2004, such as Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter, the public has communicated and disseminated information freely. On social media, the polygamy controversy is a common subject. The video explanation by Sheikh Doctor Ahmad Karimah Yajib regarding polygamy is one of the videos about the practice that has generated a lot of controversy. This qualitative research relies on primary data from the hashtag Ta’addud al-Zaujat post data (1000 and 5000 posted from 2019 to 2022). The data is disaggregated by expressions in the comments column indicating polygamy resistance. The reasons for resistance to polygamy are not just prompted by Arab netizens' psychological experiences in doing so. However, it is also influenced by the opposition expressed by other internet users from various cultural backgrounds. Expressions of resistance posted in the hashtag Ta’addud al-Zaujat have formed a public opinion to fight against polygamy. This expression of resistance is legitimized by sharing an explanation of the fatwa of Arab Ulama on social media, which only reveals a part of the explanation regarding the polygamy law.

“…12 According to the report, levels of education in the Arab world were lower even than developing countries, and Arab states invested less in research than most areas of the world. 13 The growing lack of confidence of both Arab citizens in their governments and also of the broader world in Arab progress increased after the terror attacks of September 11, 2001, and the United States' invasion into Iraq began long years of civil war and unprecedented hostility between Sunni and Shia. In short, it was not easy to be an Arab during this time.…”
