وَحَدَّثَنِى حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِى يُونُسُ قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ أَخْبَرَنِى عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ قَامَ بِمَكَّةَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ نَاسًا - أَعْمَى اللَّهُ قُلُوبَهُمْ كَمَا أَعْمَى أَبْصَارَهُمْ - يُفْتُونَ بِالْمُتْعَةِ - يُعَرِّضُ بِرَجُلٍ - فَنَادَاهُ فَقَالَ إِنَّكَ لَجِلْفٌ جَافٍ فَلَعَمْرِى لَقَدْ كَانَتِ الْمُتْعَةُ تُفْعَلُ عَلَى عَهْدِ إِمَامِ الْمُتَّقِينَ - يُرِيدُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- - فَقَالَ لَهُ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ فَجَرِّبْ بِنَفْسِكَ فَوَاللَّهِ لَئِنْ فَعَلْتَهَا لأَرْجُمَنَّكَ بِأَحْجَارِكَ. قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ فَأَخْبَرَنِى خَالِدُ بْنُ الْمُهَاجِرِ بْنِ سَيْفِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ بَيْنَا هُوَ جَالِسٌ عِنْدَ رَجُلٍ جَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ فَاسْتَفْتَاهُ فِى الْمُتْعَةِ فَأَمَرَهُ بِهَا فَقَالَ لَهُ ابْنُ أَبِى عَمْرَةَ الأَنْصَارِىُّ مَهْلاً. قَالَ مَا هِىَ وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ فُعِلَتْ فِى عَهْدِ إِمَامِ الْمُتَّقِينَ. قَالَ ابْنُ أَبِى عَمْرَةَ إِنَّهَا كَانَتْ رُخْصَةً فِى أَوَّلِ الإِسْلاَمِ لِمَنِ اضْطُرَّ إِلَيْهَا كَالْمَيْتَةِ وَالدَّمِ وَلَحْمِ الْخِنْزِيرِ ثُمَّ أَحْكَمَ اللَّهُ الدِّينَ وَنَهَى عَنْهَا. قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ وَأَخْبَرَنِى رَبِيعُ بْنُ سَبْرَةَ الْجُهَنِىُّ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ قَالَ قَدْ كُنْتُ اسْتَمْتَعْتُ فِى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- امْرَأَةً مِنْ بَنِى عَامِرٍ بِبُرْدَيْنِ أَحْمَرَيْنِ ثُمَّ نَهَانَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- عَنِ الْمُتْعَةِ. قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ وَسَمِعْتُ رَبِيعَ بْنَ سَبْرَةَ يُحَدِّثُ ذَلِكَ عُمَرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ وَأَنَا جَالِسٌ.

'Urwah bin Az-Zubair narrated that 'Abdullah bin Az-Zubair stood up in Makkah and said: "Allah has made some people's hearts blind as He has made their eyes blind; they issue Fatwa in favor of Mut'ah." He was referring to a man who called him and said: "You are uncouth and lacking in manners. By Allah, Mut'ah was done during the time of the leader of the pious" - meaning the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w). Ibn Az-Zubair said to him: "Just try to do it yourself. By Allah, if you do it, I will stone you." Ibn Shihab said: "Khalid bin AI-Muhajir bin Saifullah told me that while he was sitting with a man, another man came to him and asked him about Mut'ah, and he gave him permission for that. Ibn Abi 'Amrah Al-Ansari said to him: 'Wait a minute!' He said: 'What is it? By Allah, I did that at the time of the leader of the pious.' Ibn Abi 'Amrah said: 'It was permitted in the early days of Islam, in cases of necessity, like dead meat, blood and pork, then Allah completed His religion and forbade it.'" Ibn Shihab said: "Rabi' bin Sabrah Al-Juhani told me that his father said: 'At the time of the Prophet (s.a.w), I engaged in Mut'ah with a woman from Banu 'Amir, in return for two red Burd, then the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) forbade Mut'ah to us."' Ibn Shihab said: "And I heard Rabi' bin Sabrah narrating that to 'Umar bin 'Abdul-'Aziz when I was sitting there.''
