What is the ruling on misyar marriage?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : And since we are in the chapter of marriage, O honorable Shaykh, this questioner is asking about misyar marriage.
The Shaykh : Since we are in the chapter of marriage, every day you are in the chapter of marriage, O Shaykh, but now.
The questioner : In the discussion about marriage, he is asking about misyar marriage.
The Shaykh : What is misyar marriage? Who knows misyar marriage? Where is the questioner? Please, come up. Good, explain it to us.
The questioner : Misyar is when a man marries a woman and brings her to her mother's house, and she remains with them in her family's house. Then he departs and travels, and when he comes to this country, he enters upon her.
The Shaykh : Good, the brother says, and he bears the responsibility, I am not the questioner, but you are the one explaining. May Allah reward you with good. He says misyar marriage is when a man marries a woman and she remains with her family, and he travels and returns. When he returns, he visits her. This is misyar marriage.
I say, if this marriage has fulfilled its conditions, then some people say there is no harm in it. But I see that its consequences are to be feared. This man, whenever he passes through a country, marries a misyar wife, and whenever he marries a misyar wife, children come to him and rights become incumbent upon him. What is the matter? Did he only satisfy his desire? And the common outcome is that if he does this marriage and the relationship between him and the wife is not good, he neglects her and neglects her children. And at that time, families are ruined. And how good it is for a person to reflect on the saying of the one who said:
"The days will reveal to you what you were ignorant of, *** And news will come to you from one you did not provision."
Yes
