Nikah Misyar

Hangout GupShup Cafe
1

Basically a marriage of convenience where people have the option of living separately and meeting only to fulfill their needs.

To simplify the meaning, its like a friends-with-benefits type situation…but halal. Correct?

Do you know anyone in such a marriage? Would anyone be open to such a marriage?

Isn't that a desi marriage except that you "Meet" to make some kids and then you live your separate lives?

Actually its not. Most desi couples I know are very happy Mashallah and would not have it any other way.

Re: Nikah Misyar

As I understand, mutah is Shia and not exactly misyar.

Mutah is where there is a pre-determined time frame for the marriage...not sure of the intricacies of it but not quite the same as Misray which is part of the Sunni faith.

Re: Nikah Misyar

I don't know what misyar means, never heard of that before. However I do know someone who had a marriage of convenience and he did it for a British passport. He married a girl a he was friends with but there are no benefits and the relationship is strictly platonic.

Re: Nikah Misyar

what if your sister or your mother, after your dad passes away, gets interested in this bang bang of convenience. just curious, how would you feel?

what if they just joked about it in public, i suppose kind of like you are?

just wondering. :)

Re: Nikah Misyar

basically its two people 'agreeing' to marry..forgoing some of their 'rights' in the nikaah contract..

so they don't live together, don't bear responsibility of family......but can have 'fun' whenever they like.....as far as i heard......if kids come into situation...then there are complications....and it was something in egypt like this...where the misyaar was not recognised by state...and the women were dumped by the dudes or something.......

Re: Nikah Misyar

in early days, rich people use to have their mistresses, whom they use to provide with house, monthly expenses and other facilities... when so called Saudi-Islam took over Arabia, this practice has to go...so Saudies with the help of so-called scholars, created the concept of Misyar...

Now rich people of Arabia, goes to different countries like, Indonesia, India, Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan etc and do this arrangement, which to me is nothing but legalized prostitution...

Re: Nikah Misyar

Sounds a lot like Muttah.

So funny that you guys make fun of the Shia people for Muttah but this is totally fine.

But this is great news, I did not know about this. thanks Reha for serving the purpose of your life.

Re: Nikah Misyar

when i was getting some things clarified from indian muslims about muttah/misyar they said that both are not allowed in islam there's no ifs, ands, or buts about it

Re: Nikah Misyar

Mutah is in Shia, which has specific time, and not allowed in Sunnah. But Misyar on the other hand for unlimited time and allowed in Sunnah.

Re: Nikah Misyar

Mutta is a contract with an expiry date.......all other conditions of marriage being same
Misyar is a contract in which one or both parties forego some of their rights.......no expiry date
