Sex with slave women

Re: Sex with slave women

AFAIK, Islam encourages marrying slave woman if you’re unable to marry someone else. It’s not compulsory though.

Sorry but that doesn’t make much sense to me. Are you saying that with slave women, you have to practice ‘Azl’ because society at the time would not accept their offspring? Obviously where sex is involved there are bound to be some unwanted pregnancies. Why was it allowed in wartime if children weren’t an option?

Hmm. That sort of makes sense, but the concept is still a bit weird. Why not just do a nikkah with the slave woman?
