It refers to the Marriage formula, the intention of reciting which is to establish [[Mahramiyya]] (without [[sexual gratification]]). For example, when a man wants to become [[Mahram]] with a woman, he recites the formula for [[temporary marriage]] with the woman's daughter – that in such cases, usually her little daughter would be chosen – with the permission of her guardian, for a short time, such as one hour, so that the mother of that girl becomes the man's mother-in-law and becomes mahram to him forever.
