Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books Prohibition of Two Lawful Pleasures: a Critical Assessment of Prohibition of Mut'a of Hajj and Mut'a Marriage Preface There is consensus among Muslims that there are verses in the Holy Quran on mut'a of hajj and temporary marriage.

God is All-knowing and All-wise. Obviously, Muslims acted in accordance with these verses until Umar bin Khattab after assuming caliphate declared: Two pleasures were lawful and current during the time of the Holy Prophet (s). I prohibit both of them and punish those who commit them. They are mut'a of hajj and temporary marriage. Thus there emerged difference among Muslims.

The followers of Umar, who considered his words as a part of their principles were perplexed as how to justify his words which were as he himself admitted in contradiction with Allah's commandment. Umar himself said that two pleasure were lawful and he prohibited them. Section One: Mut'a of hajj What is the mut'a of hajj? In mut'a of hajj, a pilgrim wears ihram garment in hajj months at Miqat and then leaves it for the house of Allah in order to perform Tamattu'a Hajj.

[After arriving at the house of Allah], He circumambulates, walks between Safa and Mawa, does taqsir[^4] and then gets out of the state of ihram.
