You dont.
Abiword is a Single Document Interface (SDI) Application (a lot like
Microsoft Word 2000).
There have been a few requests for a Tabbed version of Abiword and there
is a report in Bugzilla but it seems no one wants it enough to do the work
or even sponsor someone else to do the work. If someone came forward
willing to add the functionality in a way that could be easily maintained
I am sure it would be accepted but I wonder if perhaps there are other
ways to tackle your problem. Are you aware of the command line converters
in abiword and the other batch processing features which might make it
easier for you to work on large amounts of documents at the same time?
Anyway here is the bug report
