[quote][quote] Topic initiated by waseem UNITED KINGDOM on Wednesday, March 14, 2007 - 9:19 AM Can I ask my learned participant's views on mutah. [/quote] [blue][size=2][font=Century Gothic][b]Assalamu Alaikum. I shall try to furnish answers to the questions one by one Insha Allah. [quote] 1. Was mutah practiced in the time of prophet pbuh? [/quote] This temporary marriage was a custom amongst eastern countries, as it was also practiced by some men at the dawn of Islam on their missions / trips. [quote] 2. Was mutah allowed legally in the time of prophet pbuh? [/quote] As temporary marriage was a custom amongst Arabs in the days of ignorance, it would not have been wise to forbid it except gradually, as is the manner of Islam in removing pre-Islamic customs which were contrary to the interests of people. Abdullah Ibn 'Abbas (r.a.a.) said: "Temporary marriage was at the beginning of Islam. A man comes by a town where he has no acquaintances, so he marries for a fixed time depending on his stay in the town, the woman looks after his provisions and prepares his food, until the verse was revealed: [green][i]"Except to your wives or what your right hands possess"." [/i] [/green] Ibn 'Abbas explained that any relationship beyond this is forbidden. [narrated by Tirmizy] [quote] 3. Was mutah prohibited by Hazrat Umar rta? [/quote] Our divine law was completed with the words of the Most High: [green] [i]"Today I have perfected for you your religion, and completed upon you my favor, and accepted for you Islam as a way of life."[/i][/green] [5:4] After the revelation of this noble verse, there was no longer any change or exchange. Hence the claim that Umar Ibnul Khattab (r.a.a.). was the person who first forbade it when he was Caliph is false and fabricated. Ali Bin Abi Taleb (r.a.a.) said that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.) had forbidden temporary marriage on the day of Khaybar and had forbidden the eating of the meat of domestic camels. [narrated by bukhary, Muslim, Tirmizy, Ibn Majah, Nasa`i, Tahawy, Shafi'i, Bayhaqy, and Hazimy] According to Abu Huraira (r.a.a.), the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.) had forbidden or abolished temporary marriage, its marriage and its divorce, its waiting period, and its inheritance. [narrated by DarQutny, Ishaq Bin Rahwiya, and Ibn Habban] 'Umar Ibnul Khattab (r.a.a.) had mentioned its prohibition from the pulpit and stated its punishment, and reminded the congregation that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.) had prohibited it and strongly admonished against it. [quote] 4. Is mutah still practiced in Islamic coubteries? [/quote] To me this question seems irrelevant and immaterial. [quote] 5. Is mutah legal? [/quote] The prohibition has also been reported according to a number of companions other than 'Umar. Its prohibition has been reported according to 'Ali Bin Abi Taleb, 'Abdullah Bin 'Umar, 'Abdullah Bin Mas'ud, 'Abdullah Bin Alzubayr, 'Abdullah Bin 'Abbas who when reminded of its prohibition also supported the prohibition when he understood the references of the others. This is also the understanding of the followers, the scholars, and all the Imams. They were all unanimous on this issue.
