Hi Poppy,

I completely agree!
It shouldnt be a custom and it isnt!

There are somethings that arent recommended in natural circumstances, but are an option when there is no other choice left.

Like choosing to smoke, instead of taking drugs. (for an addict)

Also, Sighe is something clear for both the Man and the Woman!
They both know what they are getting into . . . So the Woman isnt the only victim. They both have agreed and know the consequences.

Other than that, Sighe isnt necessarily just for having intercourse.
Its just a way to make two people Mahram.
What happens between them, is their own choice and has nothing to do with Sighe itself.

Again, endorsing Sighe on its own is not accepted by Islamic teachings nor any logical mind for that matter.

So yes . . . The act you mentioned is inadmissible and unacceptable. But who is to blame?

The Law?
Or The person misusing/taking advantage of it?
Or The person who predicts the outcome and still accepts?

I believe, the last two ... But that's just my opinion.

EDIT: Spelling mistake.
