ON A DUSTY MORNING in the holy city of Qom, I went looking for a shrine in a walled cemetery of martyrs known as Sheikhan. The graveyard's walls are lined with glass cases containing the framed photos of soldiers felled by the Iran-Iraq war. The shrine, I'd been told, is a hangout for women seeking temporary marriage, an intriguing mechanism in Shiite Islam for relieving sexual frustration. In the Islamic Republic of Iran, sex outside of marriage is a crime, punishable by up to 100 lashes or, in the case of adultery, death by stoning. Yet the purpose of a temporary marriage is clear from its name in Arabic–mut'a, pleasure. A man and a woman may contract a mut'a for a finite period of time–from minutes to 99 years or more–and for a specific amount, mehr in Farsi, which the man owes the woman.
Interesting throughout, from Mother Jones.

It shoudl also be realized that this kind of FATWA was only given during the times of war, when men were away from their homes for very long periods. It seems whenever our raw animal instincts are stifled, we break the rules time and time again. Übersetzungsagentur
I came to the conclusion that-”EVERYTHING IS FAIR IN LOVE AND WAR”, and also agree with a point “sex outside of marriage is a crime”.
Islam is not a religion its a CRIME.
They can then go on to get an arranged marriage after breaking up with the “wife”.
For people who are new in this place, it’s hard for them to overcome this situation, especially if they are from a liberated country, because sex outside of marriage is a crime. They have to get married to satisfy their sexual needs.
I like this Temporary Marriage in Shiite Islam because its good for everyone to know the character of patner.If we can able to know him in a short period that one is bad,we can simply neglect.But in country its not possible.I like this

This is some great stuff…thank you to everyone who provided content.
The truth is Iran where Mutah is legal gives woman her highest right compared to the so called civilised US where cases of prostitution is rampant. Mutah is a solution to the Humanity(Muslims in particular), though they know not.
i want to know more about this.
Sounds like legal prostitution rather than marriage to me. Why won’t the government put an end to this, it so stupid. Makes my skin boil. depuy asr lawsuit
