The Ruling on Shighar When There Is a Bridal Gift Between the Two Wives

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: If a man marries his daughter to another man on the condition that the other man marries his daughter to him, but there is a bridal gift (sadaq) between them, and it is not without a bridal gift, is that permissible?

Answer:
It is correct that it is not permissible either, such as if it is free of the bridal gift, yes. Because it does not. It does not come without harm to the woman, either to both of them or to one of them; it does not come without harm, yes.
