أَرْسَلْتُ إِلَى أَبِي الْحَسَنِ ع كَمْ أَدْنَى أَجَلِ الْمُتْعَةِ هَلْ يَجُوزُ أَنْ يَتَمَتَّعَ الرَّجُلُ بِشَرْطِ مَرَّةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ قَالَ نَعَمْ.
4. Muhammad has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn Khalid from Khalaf ibn Hammad who has said the following: “I once sent (a message) to abu al-Hassan (a.s.), and asked, ‘How much is the minimum duration of time in al-Mut‘ah (advantageous marriage) and if it is permissible to set the time for only one time going to bed. He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, it is permissible.’”

سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع- عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَتَزَوَّجُ الْمَرْأَةَ عَلَى عَرْدٍ وَاحِدٍ فَقَالَ لَا بَأْسَ وَ لَكِنْ إِذَا فَرَغَ فَلْيُحَوِّلْ وَجْهَهُ وَ لَا يَنْظُرْ.
5. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from ibn Faddal from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad from a man whom he mentioned who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of a man who married a woman (in the manner of al-Mut‘ah (advantageous marriage)) for only once going to bed. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is permissible, however, when the specified time ends he must turn his face away and must not look.’”

قُلْتُ لَهُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ الرَّجُلُ يَتَزَوَّجُ الْمُتْعَةَ وَ يَنْقَضِي شَرْطُهَا ثُمَّ يَتَزَوَّجُهَا رَجُلٌ آخَرُ حَتَّى بَانَتْ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ يَتَزَوَّجُهَا الْأَوَّلُ حَتَّى بَانَتْ مِنْهُ ثَلَاثاً وَ تَزَوَّجَتْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَزْوَاجٍ يَحِلُّ لِلْأَوَّلِ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَهَا قَالَ نَعَمْ كَمْ شَاءَ لَيْسَ هَذِهِ مِثْلَ الْحُرَّةِ هَذِهِ مُسْتَأْجَرَةٌ وَ هِيَ بِمَنْزِلَةِ الْإِمَاءِ.
1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from certain persons of our people from Zurarah who has said the following: “I once asked abu Ja’far (a.s.), saying, ‘May I be sacrificed for you, a man marries a woman temporarily (through mut'ah) and its appointed time expires, then another man marries her until she becomes a stranger to him, then the first man marries her and she becomes stranger to him and this takes place three times and she marries three husbands; if it is permissible for the first man to marry her again.‘ He (the Imam) said, ’Yes, it is permissible, as many times as he wants; it is not like a free woman. She is hired and her case is similar to slave-girls.’”

قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع أَتَزَوَّجُ الْمَرْأَةَ شَهْراً فَتُرِيدُ مِنِّي الْمَهْرَ كَمَلًا وَ أَتَخَوَّفُ أَنْ تُخْلِفَنِي فَقَالَ لَا يَجُوزُ أَنْ تَحْبِسَ مَا قَدَرْتَ عَلَيْهِ فَإِنْ هِيَ أَخْلَفَتْكَ فَخُذْ مِنْهَا بِقَدْرِ مَا تُخْلِفُكَ.
1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from Fadalah abu Ayyub from ‘Umar ibn Aban from ‘Umar ibn Hanzalah who has said the following: “This is concerning my question before abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), about if I marry a woman for one month and she wants all of the mahr (dower) from me, but I am afraid of her acting against me. He (the Imam) said, ‘You cannot withhold the mahr (dower) that is set but when she acts against the terms of marriage then you can take from her what is equal to what she has violated of the mutually agreed conditions.’”
