Hadith on Mut’ah: Temporary marriage forbidden by consensus

Sabrah al-Juhanni reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, prohibited temporary marriage, saying, “Behold, it is forbidden from this day of yours until the Day of Resurrection.

Source: Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 1406

Grade: Sahih (authentic) according to Muslim

Imam al-Maziri commented, “It is confirmed that temporary marriage was permissible at the beginning of Islam, then it was confirmed by many authentic narrations mentioned here that it was abrogated. Consensus was formed over its unlawfulness.”

عَنْ سَبْرَةَ الْجُهَنِيِّ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى عَنِ الْمُتْعَةِ وَقَالَ أَلاَ إِنَّهَا حَرَامٌ مِنْ يَوْمِكُمْ هَذَا إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ

1406 صحيح مسلم كتاب النكاح باب نكاح المتعة وبيان أنه أبيح ثم نسخ ثم أبيح ثم نسخ واستقر تحريمه إلى يوم القيامة

قَالَ الْمَازِرِيُّ ثَبَتَ أَنَّ نِكَاحَ الْمُتْعَةِ كَانَ جَائِزًا فِي أَوَّلِ الْإِسْلَامِ ثُمَّ ثَبَتَ بِالْأَحَادِيثِ الصَّحِيحَةِ الْمَذْكُورَةِ هُنَا أَنَّهُ نُسِخَ وَانْعَقَدَ الْإِجْمَاعُ عَلَى تَحْرِيمِهِ
