I have expanded and provided context for the subject so i don't feel it should be deleted as it is also got sources from reliable media outlets. Dwanyewest (talk) 21:56, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wut u trana say? refer to Nikah mut‘ah, the statement u insist on addin it to the article is ridiculous and is basically an insult to the shia faith followers. you can not describe Mut'ta as prostitution since the wife and the husband will have duties and rights to each other unlike prostitution. plz delete that —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mutaa (talk • contribs) 14:50, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Firstly learn how to spell and there are multiple sources that consider pleasure marriages as prostitution and its not recognized as a legitimate marriage by the secular Iraq government. Dwanyewest (talk) 17:34, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Firstly spelling is not the issue here s long as you get the idea, secondly being unlegitimate by the so called "secular Iraq government" does not make it prostitution. There is a separate article for this issue so do not confuse the reader by your personal opinion. also your sources do not state clearly that pleasure marriages is prostitution. --Mutaa (talk) 16:21, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that The Young Turks are critics who believe its prostitution.[6]
