5119. Salama bin Al-Akwa' said: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "If a man and a woman agree (to marry temporarily), their marriage (1) (Chap. 32) Nikāh-al-Mut'a means temporary marriage for a limited period of time. This type of marriage was allowed in the early days of Islām in cases of necessity, but the Prophet ﷺ finally prohibited it forever. (See H. 5115 and 4216) should last for three nights, and if they like to continue, they can do so; and if they want to separate, they can do so." I do not know whether that was only for us or for all the people in general. Abū 'Abdullāh (Al-Bukhārī) said: 'Ali made it clear that the Prophet ﷺ said, "The Mut'a marriage has been cancelled (made unlawful)."

5119 - وَقَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ: حَدَّثَنِي إِيَاسُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الأَكْوَعِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ وَامْرَأَةٍ تَوَافَقَا، فَعِشْرَةُ مَا بَيْنَهُمَا ثَلاَثُ لَيَالٍ، فَإِنْ أَحَبَّا أَنْ يَتَزَايَدَا، أَوْ يَتَتَارَكَا تَتَارَكَا» فَمَا أَدْرِي أَشَيْءٌ كَانَ لَنَا خَاصَّةً أَمْ لِلنَّاسِ عَامَّةً، قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ: «وَبَيَّنَهُ عَلِيٌّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ مَنْسُوخٌ»
