Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Al Barqy, from Dawood Bin Is’haq Al Haza’a, from Muhammad Bin Al Qayz who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah^asws about the <span class="iTxt">Mut’a</span>, so he^asws said: ‘When she was of an understanding’. We said, ‘May we be sacrificed for you^asws! Supposing she is not of an understanding?’ He^asws said: ‘So present to her and speak to her, so if she accepts, then marry her, and if she refuses to be pleased with your words, so leave her. And beware of the revealers, and the inviters, and the prostitutes, and those with the husbands’. I said, ‘What are the revealers?’ He^asws said: ‘Those women who are revealing and their houses are known, and they (men) are going to them’. I said, ‘So (what about) the inviters?’ He^asws said: ‘Those women who are inviting to themselves, and they are recognised with the corruption’. I said, ‘So (what about) the prostitutes?’ He^asws said: ‘Those women are well known with the adultery’. I said, ‘So (what about) those women with the husbands?’ He^asws said: ‘The women divorced upon other than the Sunnah’.
