He (the Imam) said, ‘Say I marry you in the manner of al-Mut‘ah (advantageous marriage) according to the book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Holy prophet, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, and that there is no inheritor or inherited in it, for so and so many days or if you wished, for so and so many years, for so and so much amount of dirham as mahr (dower),’ mention the amount you both have agreed, little or more, then if she said, “Yes,” it means she has agreed. She is your wife and you are the nearest of all people to her.’ I then said, ‘I feel embarrassed to mention the condition of days.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It (such feeling) is more harmful to you.’ I then asked, ‘Why is it as such?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘If you do not mention, marriage is permanent, you must pay her expenses during waiting period, there will be inheritance and you cannot divorce her except in the form of divorce according to the Sunnah.’”
