Giving more mahr to the second wife

Q: In Islam, a man is allowed to get married to 4 women. If he wants to marry a girl when he already has his first wife, does he have to mention the same amount of mehar that he had given to his first wife or can he give his second wife more than what he gave the first wife as mehar.
If he wants to give his second wife more mehar than the first wife's mehar, is there any problem in that or should he maintain an equal amount of money for both?
A: It is permissible for him to give her mahr according to her family tradition, even if the mahr is more than the amount he gave to his first wife.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
