In Islam, the legal basis for temporary marriage (Nikah Al-Mut'ah) is found in the Sahih Bukhari Hadith, which is considered to be the most sacred Islamic text after the Quran.

Narrated Abdullah:

We used to participate in the holy wars carried on by the Prophet and we had no women (wives) with us. So we said (to the Prophet ). "Shall we castrate ourselves?" But the Prophet forbade us to do that and thenceforth he allowed us to marry a woman (temporarily) by giving her even a garment, and then he recited: "O you who believe! Do not make unlawful the good things which Allah has made lawful for you

Bukarhi 6:60: 139
