Brilio.net - Marriage is a sacred bond regulated by religion and law to form a harmonious and happy family. In Islam, marriage has very clear and strict rules to ensure that the relationship formed is legitimate and in accordance with sharia. There are several types of marriage that are prohibited in Islam because they are considered not in accordance with religious principles and can damage the social order.

Understanding the types of marriage that are forbidden in Islam is very important for every Muslim. This is not only to avoid sin, but also to ensure that the marriage that is being carried out is valid and blessed by Allah. In addition, building a happy family also requires effort and commitment from both parties. There are several tips that can be followed to create a harmonious and happy family.

Here is an explanation of the three types of marriage that are forbidden by Islam and tips for building a happy family. Each type of forbidden marriage is explained with relevant examples, as well as practical tips to help build a harmonious family.

1. Mut'ah Marriage (Contract Marriage)

Definition: Mut'ah marriage, or contract marriage, is a marriage that is carried out for a certain period of time with the agreement that the marriage will end after the specified time has expired. This marriage is not recognized in Sunni Islam and is considered invalid.

Example: A man and woman agree to marry for one month for a specific purpose, such as sexual satisfaction or financial gain. After one month, the marriage is considered over without the need for divorce proceedings.

Reasons for prohibition: Mut'ah marriage is considered inconsistent with the principles of marriage in Islam which prioritize eternity and long-term commitment. This marriage can also damage the social and moral order in society.

2. Sighar's Marriage

Definition: Shighar marriage is a marriage in which two men exchange their daughters or sisters in marriage without giving a dowry. This marriage is done with the agreement that each man will marry the woman who is exchanged.

Example: Two men agree to marry their daughters to each other without giving a dowry. This marriage is done with the aim of avoiding the cost of a dowry.

Reasons for prohibition: Shighar marriage is considered unfair and degrading to women. Islam teaches that mahr is a woman's right that must be given by the husband as a sign of respect and commitment. Shighar marriage can also cause injustice and unhappiness in marriage.

3. Muhallil's Marriage

Definition: A muhallil marriage is a marriage that is carried out with the aim of re-marrying a woman who has been divorced three times by her husband. In Islam, a woman who has been divorced three times by her husband cannot remarry the husband except after marrying another man and legally divorcing him.

Example: A man marries a woman who has been divorced three times by her husband with the intention of divorcing her after some time, so that the woman can remarry her first husband.

Reasons for prohibition: Muhallil marriage is considered a manipulation of Islamic law and is not in accordance with the principles of justice and honesty. This marriage can also damage the social and moral order in society.
