Al-Mut‘ah (advantageous marriage) Is Not Permissible With Non-Chaste Women

1- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ الْمُتْعَةِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ الْمُتْعَةَ الْيَوْمَ لَيْسَ كَمَا كَانَتْ قَبْلَ الْيَوْمِ إِنَّهُنَّ كُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ يُؤْمَنَّ وَالْيَوْمَ لا يُؤْمَنَّ فَاسْأَلُوا عَنْهُنَّ.
1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn Mahbub from Aban from abu Maryam who has said the following: “Once, abu Ja‘far عليه السلام, was asked about al-Mut‘ah (advantageous marriage). He (the Imam) said, ‘Al-Mut‘ah (advantageous marriage) today is not like it was before this day. Women in those days believed in it but today they do not believe in it and you can ask them.”’
