Hi, I'm a Christian and I am in a muta marrige with a muslim right now and when we discuss muta marriges he says he's allowed to have sex if it was put in the "contract" I was just wondering is that true? If the female are unable to be touched then how is it that a guy can have sex. I guess I just don't understand. What are the other things you can and can not do while in a muta marrige?

Praise be to Allah.We are very upset to hear about this incident in which

you have been deceived and lied to, or have fallen victim to the ignorance of this evil

man. The final ruling with regard to mutah marriage is that it is forbidden

according to Islamic shareeah. This prohibition is the final ruling of the Prophet

(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) with regard to this matter.

Imaam Muslim said in his Saheeh:

Baab Nikaah al-Mutah wa bayaan annahu ubeeha thumma nusikha

thumma ubeeha thumma nusikha wastaqarra tahreemuhu ilaa Yawn il-Qiyaamah (Chapter on

Mutah marriage and the statement that it was permitted, then abrogated, then

permitted, then abrogated, and this prohibition remains in effect until the Day of

Resurrection).

From Iyaas ibn Salamah from his father, who said: The Messenger

of Allaah

(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) gave sanction for contracting

temporary marriage (mutah) for three nights in the year of Awtaas [after the Battle

of Humayn in 8 AH], then he forbade it. (2499)

From al-Rabee ibn Sabrah from his father: on the day of the

Conquest (of Makkah) the Messenger of Allaah

(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)

forbade temporary marriage (mutah) with women. (Saheeh Muslim, 2506)

And also from him (may Allaah be pleased with him): that the Messenger

of Allaah

(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) forbade mutah and said:

It is forbidden from this day of yours until the Day of Resurrection, and whoever

has given anything [as a dowry] should not take it back. (Saheeh Muslim,

2509).

From Ali ibn Abi Taalib: that the Prophet

(peace and blessings

of Allaah be upon him) forbade temporary marriage to women and the flesh of donkeys at the

time of Khaybar. This was narrated by al-Tirmidhi, who said: the hadeeth of Ali is

hasan saheeh and this is what was followed by the scholars among the companions of the

Prophet

(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and others this is also the

view of al-Thawri, Ibn al-Mubaarak, al-Shaafai, Ahmad and Ishaaq. Sunan

al-Tirmidhi, 1040.

Either this man who has deceived you is an evil Raafidi who is

following the religion of his community, who permit mutah marriages which are

forbidden in Islam, or he is a corrupt Muslim who is taking advantage of the matter to

fulfil his own desires, or he is ignorant and needs to be educated and advised.

We thank you for sending this question to us and we would like to take

this opportunity to invite you to Islam, the religion of truth, which came to protect

peoples life, honour and wealth. You will find information on embracing Islam in the

first sections on our web-page. We pray to Allaah to help you to do that which is good and

to protect you from evil things and evil people. May Allaah bless the Chosen Prophet.
