We thank the questioner for asking about what he needs to know of its legal ruling before proceeding with the action. His question about marriage for a year: if what is meant is the mention of the duration in the contract, then this marriage is invalid by the consensus of jurists. If it is not mentioned in the contract, but the husband intends to divorce after a year, then there is a difference of opinion among jurists regarding its ruling. The majority permit it, but it is more cautious to avoid it and to marry without the intention of divorce. Divorce is permissible when there is a need for it.
