Chapter 67: Wedlock, Marriage (Nikaah)
Narrated Abu Jamra: I heard Ibn 'Abbas (giving a verdict) when he was asked about the Mut' a with the women, and he
permitted it (Nikah-al-Mut' a). On that a freed slave of his said to him, "That is only when it is very
badly needed and women are scarce." On that, Ibn 'Abbas said, "Yes."
