The Ruling on Temporary Marriage with the Intention of Divorce
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Abu 'Umar from Jeddah asks: What is the ruling on traveling abroad and marrying for a month or two, then divorcing, since I am unable to marry permanently?
The Shaykh:
This is a temporary marriage, and it resembles mut'ah, or it resembles mut'ah. You marry with the desire to marry and the intention to stay, and that is the lawful marriage. As for marrying with the intention that it is temporary, for a month or a day or so, this resembles mut'ah; rather, it is a hidden mut'ah, not an open one. Yes.
The questioner:
And does this fall under marriage with the intention of divorce?
The Shaykh:
It is the same, it is the same, it is also with the intention of divorce. Yes.
