Question:
As Salaamu Alaikum
I was asked by a gentleman to have a Mutah marriage by simply reciting an Ayah. I questioned if this was Halal. But he insisted it was. He has gone back to his country now. We never consumated the marriage, but I wonder if I have to get a divorced now?
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
Sadly he lied to you. It is not halal and the marriage never took place.
Sorry,
Hajj Gibril Haddad
