English translation
5116. Narrated Abū Jamra: I heard Ibn 'Abbās (giving a verdict) when he was asked about the Mut'a with the women, and he permitted it (Nikāh-al-Mut'a). On that a freed slave of his said to him, "That is only, when it is very badly needed and women are scarce." On that, Ibn 'Abbās said, "Yes."
