Arabikalyanam

Arabikalyanam (trans: Arabs Marriage) is the practice of temporary marriages between Arabian Muslim men and women from economically disadvantaged communities in Kerala, India. These marriages, facilitated by intermediaries, are often short-lived and stressful to the female partner. The practice of Arabikalyanam, though illegal, continues to persist in varying forms, reflecting systemic failures.
