There was a mass marriage permitted, such as when Jalandhar was massacred and the women married to the Sikhs, but this was very rare and is in fact the only instance of it that I know of. Even then, it was acknowledged as wrong at the time.

Yes, the massacre of Jalandhar by Wadbhag Singh Sodhi. Gurtej Singh IAS has given

a translation of Wadbhag Singh's statement to his men as follows : "If any Sikh married Muslim women of Jalandhar, I shall bear responsibility for his conduct in this world as well as the next". This implies that the Sikh warriors were to treat these women with respect, as they were designated to the status of wives (not mere sex-slaves).
