    Eduncle Best Answer

    Muta marriage is a temporary marriage. Muta marriage is recognized in Shia only. Sunni law doesn’t recognize it. A Shia of the male sex may contract a Muta marriage with a woman professing the Mahomedan, Christian or Jewish religion, or even with a woman who is a fire worshipper but not with any woman following any other religion. But a Shia woman cannot contract a Muta marriage with a non muslim.
    The essentials of Muta marriage are :
    (1) The period of cohabitation should be fixed.
    (2) Dower should be fixed.
    (3) If dower specified, term not specified, it could amount to permanent or regular marriage.
    (4) If term fixed dower not specified, it amounts to void marriage.
