Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: Marrying a traveler with the intention of divorce?
The Shaykh: No, it is not permissible. I am surprised by a question like this being raised, and some scholars may answer it by saying it is permissible. What is the reason for a Muslim to marry with the intention of divorce? What is the reason? If divorce were not permissible in the future unless one intended it at the time of marriage, this question would have meaning. But since, as, you divorce whenever you wish and keep her whenever you wish, why this question? And why this condition? I want to marry a woman now from the People of the Book, as the expatriated youth there are afflicted with, without intending divorce? By Allah, I want to protect myself better than being afflicted with fornication and zina, and so on. And when the time comes for me to return to my country, I will divorce her. This is a person, the image of a person.
Another person is me; I want to protect myself in your land where there is no Muslim woman, so I marry a woman from the People of the Book. If I am pleased with her conduct, her morals, her chastity, her intellect, and her service, I will enjoy her company, and perhaps I will return to my country with her. And if I am not pleased with her for some reason, I will say to her: You are divorced, and the matter is ended. So why this question? I do not know? In my opinion, this is due to people's negligence. As long as divorce is in the hand of the one who took the leg, then there is no need for this condition. Marry, and whenever you wish, divorce her, and the matter is ended.

The Shaykh: "In every gathering with the beloveds, there is a parting *** And all that is less than death is little
And my missing one after another *** Is proof that a beloved does not last"
