Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: Shaykh Ibn Sa'di (may Allah have mercy on him) cited the verse of Allah the Exalted
Except from their wives or those their right hands possessإِلَّا عَلَىٰ أَزْوَاجِهِمْ أَوْ مَا مَلَكَتْ أَيْمَانُهُمْ
[Al-Mu'minun 23:6]
as evidence for the prohibition of temporary marriage (mut'ah), and he explained this by saying that it is a wife who is not intended and not a right of possession. What is meant by his saying "a wife who is not intended"?

Answer:
He means that the contract is not a marriage contract, but rather a temporary contract of mut'ah. Is she not a wife? This is not permissible. Is she not a wife and not a right of possession? The evidence is correct. Yes.
