٤- مُحَمَّدٌ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ خَلَفِ بْنِ حَمَّادٍ قَالَ أَرْسَلْتُ إِلَى أَبِي الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) كَمْ أَدْنَى أَجَلِ الْمُتْعَةِ هَلْ يَجُوزُ أَنْ يَتَمَتَّعَ الرَّجُلُ بِشَرْطِ مَرَّةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ قَالَ نَعَمْ.
4. Muhammad has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn Khalid from Khalaf ibn Hammad who has said the following: “I once sent (a message) to abu al-Hassan , and asked, ‘How much is the minimum duration of time in al-Mut‘ah (advantageous marriage) and if it is permissible to set the time for only one time going to bed. He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, it is permissible.’”
