Introduction To Mutah In Islam

Temporary Marriage From Seeking the Straight Path: Reflections Of a New Muslim by Diana Masooma Beatty.  Written by a revert Sister currently residing in the United States. It's a very nice read. After clicking on the above link, please click on subject heading you want to skip to from the Table of Contents. The section on Mutah is a good introduction to the topic, particularly from the convert's point of view.

Fixed-Time Marriage (1) From the Chapter Fixed-Time Marriage in Woman And Her Rights by Shaheed, Allamah Murtaza Mutahheri. (See below for more details about this book.)

Mutah Or Temporary Marriage Appendix from the book Shia by 'Allamah Tabatabai and Sayyed Hossein Nasr. This is a brief introduction to Mutah in Islam.

The Essence Of This Marriage From Chapter 4: The Marriage Of Mutah from the book Questions On Jurisprudence (Masa'il Fiqhiyya) by 'Abd al-Husayn Sharaf al-Din al-Musawi. This is a scholarly description of what Mutah is and briefly covers the arguments for and against its validity.

Temporary Marriage (Mutah) In Islamic Law By Sachiko Murata. This book is a very good source of information. The legal similarities and differences between Nikah marriage and Mutah are made clear. However, the use of language in some of the quotes from certain scholars of the past, can sometimes be rather offensive and damaging to the concept of Mutah. However, whether this book has damaged its image or not is debatable. It is an academic work where the author has described the views of different scholars on Mutah.

Rulings On Temporary Marriage translation of the chapter on Mutah in the book Fiqh al-Imam Ja'far as-Sadiq (as), by Sheikh Muhammad Jawad Mughniyah. The translation and footnotes are by Hujjat al-Islam Sheikh 'Abd al-Hakeem Carney. Originally from Nikah-Foundation.org.

 

 

 

 

Mutah & Society

 

Fixed-Time Marriage This is a fantastic chapter taken from the excellent book Woman And Her Rights by the famous, and greatly missed Shaheed, Allamah Murtaza Mutahheri. Unlike most other works on the topic, this work concentrates on the social aspects of present day societies and Mutah. Definitely worth a read. It is a translation of the Persian book Nizam-e-Huqooq-e-Zan Dar Islam. An excellent social, psychological and philosophical analysis of many issues related to Women, family, Nikah, Mutah, Polygamy, Divorce . . . From http://www.al-islam.org/ 

Handling Sexual Urge Before Marriage? Temporary Marriage (Mutah) from Marriage And Morals In Islam By Sayyid Muhammad Rizvi. This book is known amongst many circles as the "Pink" book. It's a very open and frank book about topics generally considered taboo subjects. This section briefly describes how Mutah can be a temporary option for those who are unable to marry in Nikah.

The Necessities And The Advantages Of Mutah This is from Chapter 6a: Temporary Marriage In Islam of the extensive "A Shi'ite Encyclopedia". Edited by Vahid J. Majd and Ali Abbas. (You may need to scroll down the page.)

Temporary Marriages This is Chapter 5 in Western Civilization Through Muslim Eyes by Sayyid Mujtaba Rukni Musawi Lari. This is a very excellent piece by the learned scholar, looking at Mutah within the context of Western life. It shows how Mutah was introduced by the Holy Prophet (saw) in order to wipe out prostitution and other forms of illicit relationships from society. Definitely worth a read.

Temporary Marriage And Registered Sexual Activity From the chapter Themes II - Our Youth...The Essential Model of the book World Of Our Youth by Ayatullah al-Udhma al-Sayyid Muhammad Husayn Fadlullah. In this section the author shows how Mutah can be considered by the youth as an alternative to Early Marriage (which is halal and encouraged in Islam) and Masturbation (which is haram in Islam but widely practiced). Also discussed: Adolescence, Sex Education, Love In Islam. Generally the whole chapter and the whole book is worth a read.

By al-Allamah as-Sayyid Muhammad Husayn at-Tabatabai. This is an excellent commentary on the verse of Mutah. The author analyses the grammar and language of the verse, quotes: hadith, companions, Imams,  and scholars  alike and considers arguments both for and against the legitimacy of Mutah. He proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that this verse (4:24) is about Mutah and was never abrogated by Qur'an or Sunnah. You must read this!

Mutah In The Previous Divine Scriptures

 

Concubinage Or Marriage Of Pleasure In The Bible This is Chapter 9 from the book Islam In The Bible by Professor Ali Haydar (Thomas McElwain). This is a truly unique piece of research. It looks at the topic of Mutah from the angle of the Bible. In this work Professor Ali Haydar shows how a form of Mutah was practiced by the Ancient Prophets of Israel, including Abraham (pbuh),  David (pbuh), and Solomon (pbuh). He has used the word "concubinage" to refer to the specific form of Mutah as practiced in Biblical times. Please note that the rules of concubinage which can be inferred from the Bible  are not necessarily the same as the rules of Mutah according to Islam.

Why Mutah?

 

In this section you will find personal accounts of ordinary Muslims, both male and female, about why they have considered the idea of contracting a Mutah with someone. Please feel free to read what they have had to say about Mutah. We hope that the number of articles in this section continues to grow. Please send your articles to Mutah1@lycos.com and help us to smash the taboo and ignorance surrounding this institution which has been divinely bestowed upon humankind.

 

 

 

Experiences Shared By Sisters:

 

The Experience Of A Female Revert This is an excellent account of a sister who has had to deal with the double standards of Shia communities. It is an excellent reminder of what happens when both individuals and societies think and behave ignorantly about an institution of Islam which was avidly pronounced as legitimate by the Holy Ahlul Bayt (a.s.) The need for reform is made crystal clear.

 

 

 

Experiences Shared By Brothers:

 

A Marital Relationship For Those Without Economic Means Want to marry? But are a student with no money? Worry not! There is a temporary solution. . .

Mutah - A Way To Forming Companionship During Student Life "I'm a Student! What Shall I do? Arghhhhh!!!!!!" Are you at present a single student? Or, do you remember what it was like being a young college guy trying your best not to let yourself be seduced? If so, then we are sure you can relate to what both the above accounts describe.  : )

Mutah As A Means Of Protecting Hijab An explanation of how this pious brother entered into a Mutah solely for the purpose of relaxing the the conditions of Hijab between himself and a female to whom he was doing Dawah.

I Contracted Mutah To Help Me Search For A Nikah Wife This is a description of how this brother harnessed Mutah for the purposes of getting to know his prospective  wife better.

Mutah: A Suitable Option For A Divorcé Whilst briefly describing for us why he considers Mutah as a safe option following his divorce, this brother gives an in-depth and excellent analysis of why divorce amongst Muslims is on a rapid increase. His solution? Education and social reform towards the Islamic ideals and values.
