- .... The apparent meaning of the report narrated from Umar regarding the two forms of temporary marriage (mut'a) invalidates this interpretation because he
said: "There were two forms of temporary marriage during the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny). I am the one who forbids them and punishes for them." He associated the prohibition with himself, and if the Messenger had forbidden them, he would have attributed the prohibition to him, which would have been more emphatic and appropriate. He would have said: "So he forbade them both or abrogated them, and I, after him, forbid them and punish for them."
