The questioner : He also asks about the meaning of temporary marriage and its ruling?
The Shaykh : Temporary marriage is when a man marries a woman for a set period, saying for example, “Marry me to your daughter for a week, for a month, for a year, or something like that.” This type of marriage was lawful, then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade it until the Day of Resurrection. The reason for this is that marriage is intended for permanence, continuity, and living happily with one’s wife. As for temporary marriage, it most closely resembles a cover for unlawful sexual intercourse, because he marries her only for that specific period to satisfy his desire, and then once the period ends, the marriage is dissolved whether she agrees or not, because it is a temporary marriage.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : By the terms of this contract, it is dissolved when the time limit expires. For this reason, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade it until the Day of Resurrection. Therefore, it is not permissible for a Muslim to marry under a temporary marriage contract. Yes.
