Ask an Alim

can elder brother do mutah with younger brother wife

Q:

Salamun Alykum, Can a Married woman do mutah? if yes then i want know that if elder brother can do mutah with his younger brother’s wife. (i want to know sister in law mehram or not )? Did our 12 all Imams do Mutah marriage? One of my mumin brother said Mutah is sunnate Imam we must do it. Thank you.

A:

Walaykum Asalaam

No. Married women can not.

Sister in law is not mahram.

If something is halal it does not mean we should or must do it.  There are necessary circumstances that  may lead to the need for Mutah.
