Hadith record

5. A number of our companions reported from Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad al-Barqī, from Dāwūd ibn Isḥāq al-Ḥadhdhā’, from Muḥammad ibn al-Faiḍ, who said: I asked Abā ʿAbdillāh al-Sadiq (as) about temporary marriage (mutʿah), and he said: "Yes, if she is knowledgeable." I said: "May I be sacrificed for you, and if she is not knowledgeable?" He said: "Then present the matter to her and say to her, if she accepts, then marry her; but if she refuses to accept your proposal, then leave her. Beware of the 'kawāshif', the 'dawāʿī', the 'baghayā', and the women with husbands." I asked: "What are the 'kawāshif'?" He said: "Those who reveal themselves, and their homes are known and accessible." I said: "And the 'dawāʿī'?" He said: "Those who invite others to themselves and are known for their corruption." I asked: "And the 'baghayā'?" He said: "Those known for fornication." I asked: "And the women with husbands?" He said: "The divorced women who are not in accordance with the Sunnah."
