Which verse or hadith permits misyar marriage, and what is an example of a fatwa for which there is no Sharia text and whose doer dislikes people finding out about it, as an application of the concept of righteousness and sin?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Oct 24, 2026
Allah has legislated marriage with conditions and impediments. If the conditions are met and the impediments are absent, then the marriage is Islamically valid. Concealing the marriage from some people, such as a first wife, does not make it a sin. What weighs heavily on the heart is that which one fears might be a sin, and this does not apply to the misyar marriage because it is conducted openly with the presence of a guardian and witnesses.
