The Marriage of Mut'ah 1. Introduction Preface The Shi'a of Maula 'Ali (as) are a people whose legacy of truth is so sharp and hard hitting that many of our opposing 'ulama choose to steer clear from engaging in any type of lively discussions with us. Their fear is so strong that these self declared advocates of the first three khalifas do not have the courage to debate with us on issues of belief. Alhamdulillah in the Indian Subcontinent when the handful of brave defenders have sought to engage in debates with us on the topic of the first three khalifas, these Nasibi flee with their tails in between their legs, with no means of escape. Too stubborn to acknowledge defeat, these followers of Mu'awiyah have gone back to the drawing table and devised a brand new approach altogether, where they attack the Shi'as on issues of fiqh. Despite the fact that the four Sunni madhabs are bitterly divided amongst themselves on issues of fiqh to the point that they cannot even agree on how Rasulullah (s) offered salat, these noble warriors have not been undeterred, and have chosen to ignore their own differences and set sights on the Shi'a. Mut'ah is an issue linked to fiqh, a topic which like many has created many differences amongst the 'ulama. The only reason that these Nasibis (enemies of the Ahl al-Bayt (as)) have chosen to clog their Web Sites and books with articles and books is to keep the Shi'a 'ulama busy, so that they are provided with fewer opportunities to highlight the transgressions of their khalifas. Many followers of Mu'awiyah have dedicated hours of their free time on this topic, and we pray that this book shall answer all the propaganda and lies that are perpetuated against us. Those great works that we have singled out for special attention are as follows: 1. T he unlawfulness of Mut'ah by Maulana Mufti Muhammad Shafi 2. T he Shi'a practice of the forbidden temporary marriage, by Abu Sufyan 3. T emporary Marriage by an unnamed Muslim Sister 4.

Please click on the link above titled "Original articles against Mut'ah". These great writers told numerous lies and sought to throw as much filth as they could get in their hands, and abandoned all principles of honesty and intellectual rigour whilst seeking to achieve their objective. We felt that it was essential that we answered these 'defenders of decency' back, in the manner that they deserve. We have raised our pens and now ask for justice before our readers, by citing evidences from the Qur'an, hadith, testimonies of the Sahaba and the Salaf 'ulama to support our arguments. May Allah (swt) accept our intention, and bless Prophet Muhammad and his purified family. Copyright © 2002-2008 Answering-Ansar.org. • All Rights Reserved Page 6 of 251 2. What is Mut'ah? Mut'ah is a type of marriage, used in the same way as a permanent marriage (Nikah) in order to make a man and woman physically halaal to each other. A Mut'ah is a temporary marriage that ends at a fixed period. Imam of Ahl as-Sunnah Waheed ad-Deen az-Zaman, in his footnotes of Sunan ibn Majah, defined Mut'ah as follows: Mut'ah is a type of Nikah until an agreed time. It can be for a day, two days, a month, one year, three years etc. Waheed ad-Deen az-Zaman. Sunan Ibn Majah. Volume 2, p. 76 Imam Nawawi in his commentary of Sahih Muslim, relied on the definition of Mut'ah advanced by Imam of Ahle Sunnah Qadi Iyad as follows: وPاnت Pف Pق الi cعPلمPاء PعPلى Pأ nن هS Pذ Sه الcمiتcعPة كPاPنتS cن Pكاح_ا إSلPى أPجPل Pلا SميرPاث Sفي Pها , PوSف Pراق Pها Pي cح iصل SبانS cق PضاءS اcلأPجPل Sمن غPيcر طPلPاق "Ulema agree that this Mut'ah is a Nikah in which the husband and wife do not inherit from eachother and separation would take place on the completion of the Specified time without Talaq". Sharh Sahih Muslim, Volume 4 page 13 The Sunni scholar Allamah 'Abd Ar-Rahman al-Jazeri in his Al-fiqh 'Ala Al-Madhahib al-Arba' said: أما حقيقة نكاح المتعة، فهو أن يقيد عقد الزواج بوقت معين، كأن يقول لها: زوجيني نفسك شهرا_. أو تزوجتك مدة سنة. أو نحو ذلك، سواء كان صادرا_ أمام شهود وبمباشرة ولي، أول The reality of Nikah Mut'ah is that, in the marriage recital performed with a woman, words are added which stipulate that the marriage is for a fixed time. For example a man shall say 'she shall remain as my wife for a month, or I shall have Nikah Mut'ah with you for a year." The parties themselves act as witnesses. It can occur in the presence of a Wali or witnesses, or without them. Al-fiqh 'Ala Al-Madhahib al-Arba' (Lahore Edition) Volume 4, page 167 The book can also be downloaded from the following Salafi library h ttp://saaid.net/book/open.php?cat=4&book=2692 The Sunni and Shi'a have no disagreement as to its original permissibility, though in recent years a number of Wahabis have claimed that Mut'ah was never permissible at all (contradicting the mainstream Sunni attitude). Sunnis believe that, in spite of its original permissibility in Islamic law, it was later abrogated, whereas the Shi'a reject this view. According to the teachings of the Imams (as) who came after the Prophet (s), Mut'ah was never abrogated and continues to be halaal until the Day of Judgement. The Prophet (s) neither deemed it haram, nor put an end to it, nor did Allah (swt) send a verse abrogating it. Rather, Mut'ah was declared impermissible by 'Umar ibn al-Khattab, in direct contradiction to the command of Allah (swt) and His Prophet (s). 2. How is Mut'ah Contracted? The contracting of Mut'ah is just like that of Nikah, both require specific words to make the contract halaal - both types of marriage have Dower. The difference between Mut'ah and standard Nikah is that there is no specified time scale, whilst a time scale is necessary with Mut'ah. Mut'ah has many Shari'ah rules / regulations if one wishes to learn further they should consult Shi'a books of fiqh. Copyright © 2002-2008 Answering-Ansar.org. • All Rights Reserved Page 7 of 251 3. Which type of women can you contract Mut'ah with? Similar rules that apply for Nikah apply for Mut'ah - if certain types of women are haram for a man to contract Nikah then the same rule applies with Mut'ah.

Middle Eastern Studies Thesis Supervisor Syed Akbar Hyder, PhD. Asian Studies Second Reader To the women of Lucknow who welcomed me into their homes and communities, shared their stories and taught me to understand their perspectives, their hopes and their fears. ❃ ❃ ❃ To my wonderful host mother in Mahanagar, Simi Ahmad, and her youngest daughters, Asna and Aiman. ❃ ❃ ❃ To my dear friend, Roushon Talcott, my family, and others who provided intellectual and emotional support throughout this journey. !i Abstract Author: Danielle Ayana D’Aguilar Title: Shatranj Ki Bazi Supervisor: Hina Azam, PhD. Second Reader: Syed Akbar Hyder, PhD. In August, 2017, the Indian Supreme Court ruled on a landmark case involving one Shayara Bano and four petitioners that instant triple talaq, a unique and controversial variation of an Islamic method for declaring divorce, was incompatible with the Indian constitution due to its detrimental effects on Muslim women and its lack of centrality to the religion. Many news and media sources both in India and around the world were quick to report this as a straightforward victory for Muslim women, while the male-dominated Islamic scholarly community expressed disdain at the least and outrage at the most. However, the matter is far more complicated and requires an understanding of history, social structure and political ideologies in India. The first portion of this paper analyzes the history of State intervention in Muslim personal law from the colonial period onward in an effort to contextualize and critique the current government’s actions.
