Now let us consider the case of a young man who needs to stay in a foreign country in order to continue his studies and because of the restricted facilities, he is unable to have a permanent marriage thus, he is in a traumatic state and there lie three possibilities before him that are; To remain single. To fall in the pollution of corruption, To marry a woman legally for a temporary period in the framework of the above-mentioned conditions for the temporary marriage contract.
Let us ponder over these three conditions: Regarding the first case, one can say that it usually proves to be unsuccessful because even though some can endure not having sexual inter-course, but it can be rather difficult for everyone to refrain themselves due to the cause of mental disturbance. As for the second case, it's end is nothing but doom and wretchedness and according to Islam, regarded as prohibited!
And considering it to be ideal for allowing it because of its necessity, is but a deviation of thought, when there could be a better and purer way, which leaves us with the best choice to opt for, that is the third way. Therefore, it is only the third method left to be chosen, which Islam suggests, and this was also practiced during the Prophet's lifetime, then later on, dispute arose in the matter and was nullified by the caliph's of the time.
Let us remind ourselves at his point, of the following: The ones who fear getting involved in the temporary marriage considering it as illegal, should realize that all the Islamic scholars and researchers have accepted something that is similar to it in the permanent marriage contract; and that is the couple who are involved in permanent marriage, their contract is valid even if it be on the grounds of them having an intention of divorce in more or less than an year.
It is obvious that such a marriage is apparently permanent though in reality it is temporary what with their intention. This type of permanent marriage differs from that of the temporary one in that the latter is limited for a certain period of time both apparently and in reality, whilst the former is apparently permanent but in reality, temporary.
Thus how could it be so that the ones who are all for the permanent marriage that is widely accepted by the scholars, fear the permissibility of the temporary one?
