Pearl of Wisdom

'I am the guide and I am the guided. I am the father of the orphans and the destitute, and the guardian of the widows. I am the refuge of every weak person and the haven of every fearful one. I am the leader of the believers to Paradise; I am the strong rope of Allah; I am Allah's firmest handle and the word of Godwariness. I am the eye of Allah, His truthful tongue and His hand.'

Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib [as]
al-Tawhid, p. 164, no. 2

211 Muta and Imam Ali Salam,
Regarding the topic of temporary marriage, our brothers from the Sunni school reject the practice as their 2nd Calipha had banned it.
Why is it that the 4th Calipha (Imam Ali AS) did not re-introduce it, if it is actually deemed as acceptable?

Answered
458 Muta as an occupation Is it haram for a woman to make a living at mutah by marrying a man for a short period, receiving a mahr, then observing iddah and marrying another man for a short period and so on so that she is married to say half a dozen men in the year?

If it is haram what makes it haram if she is observing the rules for mutah properly? And if it is not haram, does she deserve to be condemned as immoral (or do the men who marry her deserve that)?

481 explaining Mutah Is explaining Muta to a female that I intend to do Muta with, is it ok briefly or does have to include an in depth explanation?
Answered
484 please help I did Muta with a woman while I was permanently married to another. I had sexual intercourse with that woman who read the shahdatain in English for the sake of making her permissible for me in Muta. She was not a Muslim before that. She only gave shahada for the sake of marriage while she still had doubts about Islam. Does that make her a Muslim and did I commit adultery? If I did commit adultery, is my permanent Muslim wife halal for me? I have not consummated the marriage with my permanent wife yet and we also do not live together but we did nikah and we do see each other regularly.
Answered
531 can we masturbate if... When I am unable to do Mutah (temporary marriage), am I allowed to masturbate?
Answered
535 Married men and Muta - wrong? I feel that there is a cultural stigma against a married man engaging in
mutah. People always envision a wife working hard at home to raise the
kids while the husband is out playing with his mutah.

Now, if he is as fair as he can be with regards to time, money, etc., spent
with all of his wives, is there any harm in a married man engaging in mutah
for whatever reason, be it pleasure or otherwise?

Also, is there any harm in him having multiple mutahs, for pleasure or
otherwise, if he is still as fair as he can be with regards to time and
money, etc.? Or, is he wrong to engage in mutah if he is married in some cases?

Also, if a wife is jealous of her husband being involved with these mutahs
which are perhaps for his pleasure but he is trying to be fair in time,
etc., is she sinning in that jealousy?
Answered
569 Mutah by female Salam
A man who is away from his wife can contract mutah. What about the wife whose husband is away from her? Does our religion provide avenues to address her needs?

Likewise, a single man can contract temporary marriage; what about the single woman who is not married?
Answered
582 forgetting in Muta contract What is the position on a person who is on the process of contracting temporary marriage forgets to mention the period of the time, does the marriage become permanent contract?

How would they separate, by divorce and if by divorce, would they invite two just people to witness? Would observing period i.e. (Idda) be necessary after the divorce?
Answered
590 Mutah with married woman I entered into temporary marriage with a Christian lady not knowing that she is separated from her husband and not officially divorced. She could not get divorce because in that country its very expensive court matter which she could not afford.
Is my marriage contract valid given that she is officially not divorced yet?
Answered
756 Temporary marriage If a married woman performs temporary marriage (Muta) and hides it from her husband . Please let me know the resources used for the answers.
Answered
801 Christian and Jews girls I am Momin and reading Man La Yah Zaral Faqih. In third volume, Hadith 4588 and 4589 are discussing the topic of Muta with Christian and Jews girls.

4588 clearly prohibits it. Whereas 4589 implies that it is Makroh.

Often It is quoted on Halal in recent books whats the source from ancient books.

It just creates a doubt in my mind and that is easier option for me. Finding a momina would be difficult but I can try.
