The answer

The scenario of marrying with the intention of having children and then divorcing falls under the same category as marriage with the intention of divorce, regarding which jurists have differed in opinion. Most of them hold it permissible if it is not stipulated in the contract. The opinion of the majority is strong and there is no harm in adopting it, especially if the wife is aware of the reality of the matter. It is advisable to keep her married, if possible, and if good offspring are granted, while ensuring justice between wives in terms of lodging and sustenance.
