Talk:Mut'ah

Acctually, its not a disambig, its a word in it self. Somebody can acctualy mean just "mut'ah" without wanting to specify what form.--Striver 09:27, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"The word is used in the name of the Battle of Mu'tah". I removed this nonsense, mut'a and Mu'ta are completely different words in Arabic.62.194.188.23 08:52, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

To whom it may concern

The following article has no relevance at all to its link on page: Timeline of 7th century Muslim history. The link refers to the battle of Mu'ata. This text here refers to Muta'ah, which is totally different. To have a text about battle of Mu'ata, please contact the islamic council.[1]

The above paragraph was at the beginning of the article, I think it rather belongs here.—Graf Bobby (talk) 16:16, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What in the hell kind of idiots thinks marriage is not about a relationhip of truth, in 2013, but "sex with slaves". There are no such verses in The Quran. And there are many verses against it. The Quran is about conservative morals, nothing else. Instead "allowed is your wife, whom your right hand posess". Which is about marriage.

This article needs to be completely rewritten or just plain deleted

Not only is the writing atrocious (e.g. what does " the Quran has nanstead" mean?), but the facts are inaccurate, the references that are given are dead links, and the language is offensive and just plain wrong (e.g. "In the original Arabic culture the word Mutah actually meant 'renting vaginas'"). How have statements like that been allowed to stand? I will try my best to improve this article, but I think it's pretty much a lost cause.--Akhooha (talk) 20:56, 7 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have restored some text with live references. This article needs to explain general term of Mut'ah and then point to child articles of Mutah of Haj & Nikah. If there are nay concerns please let me know, I'll try to address them in my best of capabilities.--10:18, 8 December 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your work. I have taken the liberty of deleting the reference to the Battle of Mu'tah as that is a completely different word (مؤتة ) from a completely different root and has absolutely no relation or relevance to Mutʿah. Thank you again for your work. I think between the two of us the article has become somewhat presentable.--Akhooha (talk) 20:32, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You are correct when you say that word Mu'tah in Battle of Mu'tah as is a completely different word (مؤتة ) from a completely different root and has absolutely no relation or relevance to Mutʿah. But for a person unknown of the intricacies of Semitic languages both word are similar and without an apostrophe (') their transliteration is same. IMHO we need to have this mentioned somewhwere somehow so that we make the point that Mu'tah & Mut'ah are two different word (although similar). As of now I leave it upto you how & where to include this piece of info. Thanks.--Sayed Mohammad Faiz Haider^tc_s 06:22, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Good idea. I've included a "do not confuse" note at the end of the article.--Akhooha (talk) 18:41, 12 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
