A House on Water

Más información sobre el libro

Exploring the complexities of sigheh, or temporary marriage, within Iranian society reveals significant legal and religious ambiguities that contribute to serious social issues, including child marriage and women's rights violations. The current legal framework treats permanent and temporary marriages similarly, ignoring their distinct nature. This oversight exacerbates the vulnerabilities faced by women and girls. Advocating for a revision of laws regarding sigheh, tailored to Iran's social context, offers a potential pathway to mitigate these detrimental effects.
