Temporary marriage: Is it zina (unlawful sexual intercourse) that is punished with the same penalty?

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is temporary marriage zina (unlawful sexual intercourse) that is punished with the same penalty?

Answer:
Temporary marriage has been abrogated by the consensus of the people of the Sunnah. Only the Shi'ah hold to it, and their opinion and their disagreement are of no account. It has been abrogated. The final ruling is that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade it and prohibited it. So whoever returns to it is considered among the fornicators, and the hadd (fixed punishment) for zina (unlawful sexual intercourse) is applied to him. Yes.
