MUHAMMAD’S TEACHINGS TO MANKIND
“ At the time of [the Battle of] Khaybar, the Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, prohibited fixed-term marriages (1) as well as [the consumption of] the flesh of domesticated donkeys. Footnote: (1): Also called 'marriage of pleasure'. A type of marriage that was allowed in the early years of the Madinan community and was later banned, in which a woman agrees to marry a man for a limited period of time stated in the contract of marriage. Spousal rights and obligations of this type of marriage are markedly reduced from those of permanent Islamic marriage. ”
