A Critique of the Crime of Not Registering the Marriage

In order to protect the family and prevent its dissolution, the Iranian legislator passed the Family Protection Law in 1391 and required the registration of marriage to support the family, woman, and children. In this context, there are criticisms of the temporary marriage. Despite the fact that this marriage is typically made up of an intentional purpose, not a tribe, in some cases, as in the case of permanent marriage, we may encounter the concept of the family, in such a way as not to resort to criminal law. The law provides for the custodial guarantee, in the absence of permanent and temporary registration of marriages, in only three cases of wife’s pregnancy, the agreement between the parties, and the existence of a condition for marriage. The failure to set a proper deadline for registering the marriage, to exclude punishment for a man, as well as a couple’s obligation to register the marriage, is a woman who is pregnant while the fetus may be aborted later this year. These are the challenges which are investigated in the present article.
