520 |a In 1910, a distinguished ethnographer, Father Antonin Jaussen, described an unusual form of marriage among the Bedouin of northern Arabia and Transjordan. In this type of marriage the wife was always a widow with young children. In contrast to the normal type of marriage, she did not maintain a joint household with her new husband, the husband had no obligation to support her, and he had no authority over her. She remained with the children of her late husband in her own household, supported by the resources derived from her late husband’s estate. The new husband – the musarrib in Arabic – merely came to her in the evening and left again in the morning.
