Recently, we have been approached by a new client who sells sex wedge pillows. These pillows are designed to facilitate intimacy between partners during sexual activity. While they might have other general use cases, they are primarily marketed for sexual purposes and are promoted with semi-nude images.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">There are two types of products involved:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Simple Wedge Pillows \u2013 These are standard pillows designed to provide comfort and support during intimacy. They can potentially be used by married couples for halal purposes, similar to how condoms are permitted for halal relationships.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Wedge Pillows with Mounted Sex Toys \u2013 Some of the pillows have sex toys attached to them. Our understanding is that products involving sex toys may not be permissible (halal) under Islamic guidelines.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Our concern is whether it is permissible from an Islamic perspective to work with this client. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Specifically:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif;\">Would it be permissible to provide supply chain services for simple wedge pillows intended to facilitate intimacy between married couples, considering that similar allowances are made for products like condoms?
