Which of the following claims about "Muta" marriages is true in the context of Muslim law as it is applied in India?
Muta marriage is a type of eternal union with no time limit.
In India, all branches of Islam are accepted as genuine.
Muta marriage is a short-term union that lasts for a set amount of time.
The bride must receive a dowry as a condition of the marriage.
Answers (1)
The Shia sect of Islam is the only one that recognise the Muta marriage, sometimes referred to as a transitory marriage. It's a specific-duration marriage that can last for a few hours, days, months, or even years. In contrast, a typical Muslim marriage is meant to last a lifetime. Given that the marriage is not eternal, option A is erroneous. Option B is wrong because Muta is linked primarily with Shia Muslims and is not acknowledged by all sects. Option D is untrue because, while Muta does involve a negotiated payment known as "meher" or "dowry," the bride is not required to receive it. Instead, at the start of the contract, the conditions are mutually agreed upon by the parties. hence option A is the best option.
