contract marriage

im quite shock when reading article abt this contract marriage and until now i'm not sure if it is real or not. The article mention abt contract marriage which berleluasa kat afganistan. It say that this contract marriage are allowed in Syiah but are not in Sunnah. For Sunnah, their view is contract marriage is only for sex while in Islam marriage is more than that. But for Syiah, contract marriage can help in a few things. For example when a guy doesn’t have enough money to get marriage, he can have a contract marriage with a woman to fulfill his need and the dowry will be less than normal marriage. Normally the dowry will proportional with the duration of the contract. And for woman, they can easily find someone to take care of them and the children for certain duration of time without have to go to prostitution. Both got their reason but for me i agree with Sunnah.. I view this contract marriage like trying to meghalalkan prostitution. For me, a marriage suppose to be a knot to tie husband and wife such that they will share the entire of life together.. share the happiness.. problem .. and each have their own responsibility. But if you know u will stay with your partner for like 2 month ... i dun think we willling to share everything .. to scarifice everything for the other. i feel it a bit unfair especially for woman ...

i agree with you on the sunnah thing, marriage ikot sunnah. tahapepe plak kawen ikot kontrek?? but then i think again n again, it made sense for the meng'halal'kan yg haram thing, izen it? :-??

aku rasa kawin misyar yg disarankan oleh manusia mana tah kat mesia ni adalah bullshit semata. marriage based on lust semata? I dont think it will hold. Sedangkan org yang bercinta macam nak rak pun bley cerai lepas kawin.
