كَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ .الرَّيَّانُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ يَعْنِي أَبَا الْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) الرَّجُلُ يَتَزَوَّجُ الْمَرْأَةَ مُتْعَةً بِمَهْرٍ إِلَى أَجَلٍ مَعْلُومٍ وَ أَعْطَاهَا بَعْضَ مَهْرِهَا وَ أَخَّرَتْهُ بِالْبَاقِي ثُمَّ دَخَلَ بِهَا وَ عَلِمَ بَعْدَ دُخُولِهِ بِهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يُوَفِّيَهَا بَاقِيَ مَهْرِهَا أَنَّمَا زَوَّجَتْهُ نَفْسَهَا وَ لَهَا زَوْجٌ مُقِيمٌ مَعَهَا أَ يَجُوزُ لَهُ حَبْسُ بَاقِي مَهْرِهَا أَمْ لَا يَجُوزُ فَكَتَبَ ( عليه السلام ) لَا يُعْطِيهَا شَيْئاً لِأَنَّهَا عَصَتِ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Ahmad Bin Asheym who said, ‘Al-Rayyan Bin Shabeeb wrote to him<sup>asws</sup>, meaning Abu Al-Hassan<sup>asws</sup>, ‘The man married the woman by <span class="iTxt">Mut’a</span> to a known term, and gave her part of her dower, and delayed with the remainder. Then he slept with her, and came to know after having slept with her, before he had paid her the remainder of her dower, that she had married herself and there was a husband for her staying with her. Is it allowed for him that he withholds the remainder of her dower or is it not allowed?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> wrote: ‘He should not give her anything because she has disobeyed Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic’.
