Which one of the following is not an incident of a 'muta' marriage ?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

In a muta (temporary) marriage recognized under Ithna Ashari Shia law, if the marriage is not consummated, the woman is entitled only to half the stipulated dower, whereas she is entitled to the full dower if the marriage is consummated. Therefore, the statement that the woman is entitled to full dower even when a muta marriage is not consummated is not a valid incident of muta marriage.
