(See the traditions quoted from Sahih Muslim in Part IV which state that the Prophet ORDERED his companions to practice Mut'a). Similarly, Allah NEVER promoted or legalized drinking Alcohol in Quran but HE promoted and legalized both types of Mut'a in Quran in two different verses. As I mentioned many Sunni commentators confirmed that the verse 4:24 is revealed for the Mut'a of women. (As for the Mut'a of Pilgrimage, there is another verse which specifies that type of Mut'a).
The course that Islam took for banning Alcohol, was to order at the beginning that "Do not be drunk when you are praying". This does not imply that Islam promoted drinking at any other time, rather it kept silent on the issue while the Prophet was discouraging people not to drink at any other time.
Allah never sent a verse to say "You can drink alcohol when you do not pray." In fact the abrogated verses and the abrogating verses of Quran do not contradict each other, rather the abrogating verse gives a more restraint law than the abrogated verse. Moreover, there exists NO abrogating verse in Quran to abrogate the verse about Mut'a (temporary marriage), and there is NO declaration from the Prophet concerning the abrogation of the verse related to Mut'a.
For the case of alcohol, we can see a clear and indisputable trend in Quran starting from not allowing the believers to pray while they are drunk, and completing with very clear verse that getting involved in such actions is strictly prohibited. Such prohibition about temporary marriage does not exist in Quran, however. Prohibition of Illegal Some people claimed that adultery was common among the companions, till close to the end of the Prophet's life time where it was prohibited by the Prophet.
These people have no shame to call the companions who they adore, as fornicators. Perhaps they do it similar to what Jews attribute such shameful thing to their own prophets, mainly to justify what they themselves do. They say since our Prophets committed such grave sins, it is going to be all right for us as well, and God will forgive! NO prophet of God ever promoted to commit adultery or established prostitution; then do these people expect that the master of all the prophets does that?
Were his companions worse than the people of Lot so that they would need to do adultery for a period of time? Even Prophet Lot did not allow such shameful thing for his people.
