Iran's hardline Muslim Minister, Mostafa Pourmohammadi declared his fatwa that "Temporary marriage is Allah's Rule".According to Mostafa, "we must aggressively encourage that."
"We have to find a solution to meet the sexual desire of the youth," Mostafa declared.
The phrase "temporary marriage" refers to Shia's tradition under which a man and a woman sign a contract "Sigheh" that allowed them to be "married" for any agreed period of time, sometimes less than 24hours.
So, we don't need to be married for a live time with the same wife. We can contract it for a day, a week, a month or a year. The contract can stipulate a condition to allow an "Extension of Time" clause so that any "Variation Order" will be binding. However, please be aware that in the event of delay cause by unforeseen circumstances or for any change of design, alteration of quality or modification to the work, please make sure that the contract has a clause to empower the contract to grant the necessary extension of time; otherwise the contract will become "time-at-large" and the contract completion period will be reasonable time for completion and the employer will lose his rights to any Liquidated Ascertained Damages.
For your information, Iran is aggressively advocating institutionalization of this type of contract. In fact, in Malaysia, we have thousands of these type of contract on-going involving China-dolls, Vietnamese Sour Fish Soup (Canh chua cá)and Burmese rice (htamin). We also have Bangladeshi curry chicken legs and Indonesian Ayam Bumbu Rujak.
Those who had problem to draft these contracts, please contact BayiSingh of Africa. He can find him at my commenter later.
By the way, there is also a Standard Form of Contracts for such marriages; the samples are shown below:

The institution of marriage is being made a hilarious joke.
You're right! Temporary marriage arrangement is like buku 555! *LOL*
Contract Marriage is only practised by Shia followers but not Sunni....
I think u should know that!
There are so many 'versions' of practices for almost all religion matters, irregardless of whichever religion.
IMHO, everything boils down to the believers themselves. Doubt is inversely proportional to logic. The less logical decision raises more doubt.
The '555' notebooks make me nostalgic...hahaha
No need for brothels in Iran. The byproduct(s)ie baby(ies) of such a 24-hour union should name Ayahtollah Mostafa Pourmohammadi as the illegitimate papa
Hi Anon,
You said this is only for Shia, not Sunni. Are you saying the Shia has a different Quran from the Sunni or that the Quran can be interpreted in a few ways such that both is correct? Or that the Fatwa from the so many scholars should be treated as from Shia and not binding on the Sunni?
To the best i can remember, the last thing i will ever do is to make fun of other people's religion. And, please dont think i cant do that.
Your cynical posting insults my religion! i am not here for any debate with you and your cynical readers and supporters. But, i sincerely hope you will not repeat this.
i dont think fanatism to freedom of speech allows you to insult my religion.

kawin mutaah haram bagi ahli sunnah. not sure how the syiah justifies it...that is why in malaysia at one point it is illegal to be syiah
this kind of thinking only give islam a bad name. no wonder ppl get worried to associate with muslims.
dear bakaq,
i fully agree with you even i am not a muslim. However, you must take it positively to show that Malaysian muslims are not fanatics and do crazy things to 'memalukan semua rakyat'.
i believe all religions are intended for good cause. it is the politicians and crazy people make it worst.
again, nobody likes to be insulted and this posting is not about insulting your religion. the joke is to show illustrate about the crazy people who do things marginalised the women. we all should stop this for good nation sake.
there is no need for vengence just because people laugh at you or call you a bubuchacha. just make it right and show to others that you are not a bubuchacha and people will respect you. if you ignite a war just for the cause of Allah, look at the middle east, the bleeding never ends!
Abu Bakar,
The news about temporary marriage at Iran wasn't created; it was published and the abstract was posted.
The part about Malaysian temporary marriage was not about Muslims; it's the non-Muslims and you can read those cases that are now in the courts where there were Vietnamese girls who married Malaysian Chinese, China girls and Burmese, who married the Chinese and Indians on Contract Basis. It wasn't what you had portrayed. However, if what was practiced in Iran for decades (these temporary marriages) was what you deemed an insult, then it wasn't what I had intended, it was factual and real.
What kind of stupid rule is this?
FYI, this is also practiced in one province in China, i forgot which province.
BUT, the difference is.. WOMEN are allowed to have more than 1 husband and to divorce their husbands anytime. MEN, on the other hand, has no such rights at all!
HURRAH to the 'whatever' province. WOMEN POWER!!!!
I will try to ask my ex-coll again and post the name of the province here.
Hi Doc,
I dont know whether u realise the following facts or not
a. Shia followers believe that the current Quran is incomplete. What does this mean? I believe you should understand.
b. Shia followers never recognize the sahabats except Ali b. Abi Talib
c. Shia followers believe that Archangel Gabriel had pass the wahyu to the wrong person. The right person should be Ali Abi Talib and not Mohammad. So, do u think Sunni and Shia have the same believe?
There are lot more that u can find the very obvious difference. I cant say much but if u witness the way Shia followers practise their Islam, it has so many differences compare to Sunnah Wal Jamaah.
The rest u do your own research. U can start with Dr Yusuf Al-Qardawi at youtube.com
TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION.
Hi Anon,
You said this is only for Shia, not Sunni. YES
Are you saying the Shia has a different Quran from the Sunni or that the Quran can be interpreted in a few ways such that both is correct? IT IS STILL THE SAME QURAN BUT SHITES BELIEVE THAT THE CURRENT QURAN IS INCOMPLETE.
Or that the Fatwa from the so many scholars should be treated as from Shia and not binding on the Sunni?
I THINK SO. BUT ONE THING FOR SURE THAT SYIAH MAZHAB IS NOT ALLOWED TO BE PRACTISED IN MALAYSIA SO MANY DIFFERENCES.
Hi Anon,
This was what I wanted to know and you had been helpful. I read Dr Yusuf Al-Qardawi's books and the Quran but I had difficulty to get Shia's text here in local bookstores.
The explanation is extremely helpful in my studies on Islam.
Just a note: Islam is no exclusive domain to any person of any race. Islam belongs to everyone who believed in the Holy Prophet and his teaching as enunciated in the Quran. At such, a Muslim should be evangelising the knowledge to others so that the non-believers would have an opportunity to learn and better themselves. However, in Malaysia, it seems that many Muslims are not spreading the Islamic gospel to the non-Muslims which was what the Holy Prophet had exalted them to do; on the contrary, the religion was made a private domain to the exclusivity of non-believers. At such, it was postured to be a fearful religion that frightened off those who asked questions regarding the subject matter, particularly on areas such as this topic above.

An extraordinarily large number of young people (about 65 percent of the population is under 25), combined with high unemployment, means that more couples are putting off marriage because they cannot afford it. Sigheh legally wraps premarital sex in an Islamic cloak.
"First, relations between young men and women will become a little bit freer," said Shahla Sherkat, editor of Zanan, a feminist monthly."Second, they can satisfy their sexual needs. Third, sex will become depoliticized. Fourth, they will use up some of the energy they are putting into street demonstrations. Finally, our society's obsession with virginity will disappear."
