٤- عَلِيٌّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ جَاءَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ اللَّيْثِيُّ إِلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) فَقَالَ لَهُ مَا تَقُولُ فِي مُتْعَةِ النِّسَاءِ فَقَالَ أَحَلَّهَا اللهُ فِي كِتَابِهِ وَعَلَى لِسَانِ نَبِيِّهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) فَهِيَ حَلالٌ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ مِثْلُكَ يَقُولُ هَذَا وَقَدْ حَرَّمَهَا عُمَرُ وَنَهَى عَنْهَا فَقَالَ وَإِنْ كَانَ فَعَلَ قَالَ إِنِّي أُعِيذُكَ بِاللهِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ أَنْ تُحِلَّ شَيْئاً حَرَّمَهُ عُمَرُ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُ فَأَنْتَ عَلَى قَوْلِ صَاحِبِكَ وَأَنَا عَلَى قَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) فَهَلُمَّ أُلاعِنْكَ أَنَّ الْقَوْلَ مَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) وَأَنَّ الْبَاطِلَ مَا قَالَ صَاحِبُكَ قَالَ فَأَقْبَلَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ فَقَالَ يَسُرُّكَ أَنَّ نِسَاءَكَ وَبَنَاتِكَ وَأَخَوَاتِكَ وَبَنَاتِ عَمِّكَ يَفْعَلْنَ قَالَ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) حِينَ ذَكَرَ نِسَاءَهُ وَبَنَاتِ عَمِّهِ.
4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from ‘Umar ibn ‘Udhaynah from Zurarah who has said the following: “Once ‘Abd Allah ibn ‘Umayr al-Laythiy came to abu Ja‘far , and asked, ‘What do you say about al-Mut‘ah (advantageous marriage) of women?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Allah has made it lawful in His book by the tongue of His Holy prophet, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, thus it will remain lawful up to the Day of Judgment.’ He then said, ‘O abu Ja’far, how can someone like you say this, when ‘Umar made it unlawful and prohibited it?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Even if he has done so.’ He said, ‘I ask Allah to protect you against a thing that ‘Umar has made unlawful.’ He (the narrator) has said that he (the Imam) then said, ‘So you can stand by the words of your friend but I stand by the words of the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, and I am prepared for al-Mula‘inah (ask Allah to condemn the party on the side of falsehood) that the word is what the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has said; and that falsehood is what your friend has said.’ He (the narrator) has said that ‘Abd Allah ibn ‘Umayr then said, ‘Will it make you happy that your women, daughters, sisters, daughters of your aunts do?’ He (the narrator) has said that abu Ja‘far , when he mentioned his women and daughters of his aunts turned away from him.’”
