Is muwta (temporary marriage) allowed?

Fatwa 442English
Marriage & DivorceMarriage (Nikah)

Question

I heard that such a thing as a temporary marriage exists. I dont think it does, but one of my friends is sure it exists. If it does under what circumstances does it exist or is it only in the shia beliefs?

Answer

There is no such thing as temporary marriages. It is the incorrect belief of the Shi'as.
