Would someone please help me? I'd really appreciate a quick reply.

If a woman states in her marriage contract that her husband cannot marry again and he agrees but he does, is their nikah valid?

From reading an old thread on here it appears the nikah would still be valid and the husbands just broken a promise or something. If that is the case, what is the point of a woman including that condition or any condition for that matter in her marriage contract? If in the contract the woman makes clear and the husband agrees that upon him taking a second wife, their nikah will be terminated, is this permissible and in this scenario would the nikah then be invalid?

Jazaka'Allah.
