Conflict is an unavoidable condition and is part and parcel of life in a household, especially in a polygamous household. This article aims to present the factors that contribute to household conflict and the approach to managing them. The data were obtained through semi-structured interviews with sampling techniques aimed at five sister-wives and one polygamous husband. The interview data transcriptions were analysed to form themes and sub-themes, and validation was performed using Cohen Kappa calculations. The data analysis revealed that the internal factors that trigger conflict are secretive marriage, lack of concern, jealousy, and misunderstanding, whereas the external factors are neglecting responsibility, difficulty in adjusting, and lack of communication. Among the approaches taken to manage this conflict are to hold discussions, to be generous, to be tolerant, to care for each other, to appreciate, to be patient, to accept the qada' and qadar of Allah Almighty, to protect the household’s honour, and to limit unimportant social activities. This finding can serve as a guide in the management of polygamous household conflicts.
