										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am a divorcee and I am having a very hard time finding a wife, it has been five years. No woman wants to perform temporary marriage also, and I do not know how to fulfill my sexual needs except through masturbation. Is it permissible to do so in this circumstance?</p>
<p>Masturbation is prohibited and there are no exceptions. Therefore, you should try to seek temporary marriage, even if it is with a woman from the people of the book (e.g., Christians).</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A Sunni man has divorced his Shia wife as per his Maslak by pronouncing 3 divorces in a single sitting. What is the course of action that the wife should take?</p>
<p>She has the right to marry someone else after the completion of her waiting duration (iddah). If her husband became a Shia before the completion of her iddah, he may return to her without a new marriage contract, and if he became a Shia after the iddah, he is required to establish a new marriage contract provided that the woman agrees to marry him again.</p>
