حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، وَالْحَسَنِ، ابْنَىْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِيهِمَا، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَهَى عَنْ مُتْعَةِ النِّسَاءِ وَعَنْ لُحُومِ الْحُمُرِ الأَهْلِيَّةِ زَمَنَ خَيْبَرَ ‏ .‏ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ سَبْرَةَ الْجُهَنِيِّ وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ عَلِيٍّ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَغَيْرِهِمْ وَإِنَّمَا رُوِيَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ شَيْءٌ مِنَ الرُّخْصَةِ فِي الْمُتْعَةِ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ عَنْ قَوْلِهِ حَيْثُ أُخْبِرَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَأَمْرُ أَكْثَرِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ عَلَى تَحْرِيمِ الْمُتْعَةِ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ الثَّوْرِيِّ وَابْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ وَالشَّافِعِيِّ وَأَحْمَدَ وَإِسْحَاقَ ‏.‏

Unreviewed translation. All hadiths in this collection are available in five languages. Titles and introductions may remain in Arabic.

Ibn Abi Umar narrated to us: Sufyan narrated to us, from al-Zuhri, from Abdullah and al-Hasan, the two sons of Muhammad ibn Ali, from their father, from Ali ibn Abi Talib: The Prophet prohibited temporary marriage with women and the meat of domestic donkeys at the time of Khaybar. It is also reported in this chapter from Sabrah al-Juhani and Abu Hurairah. Abu Isa said: The hadith of Ali is hasan sahih. Scholars among the Companions of the Prophet and others act on this. Something permitting temporary marriage was reported from Ibn Abbas, but he later retracted his position when he was informed of the Prophet's report. Most scholars hold that temporary marriage is forbidden. This was the view of al-Thawri, Ibn al-Mubarak, al-Shafi'i, Ahmad, and Ishaq.
