| 總結: | In Iran, White Marriage refers to a couple's living together and having sexual relationship through an irreligious, illegal agreement. While Islamic Law considers it fornication, cohabitation is growing common in Tehran. This has brought to question whether Shi'a fiqh (Twelver jurisprudence) should adapt itself to this reality. To that end, we intend to undertake an examination of cohabitation in Shi'a Islamic jurisprudence. We hold that to avoid further decline in relevance, Shi'a fiqh will have to define cohabitation in its intra-discourse terms in such forms as mu'ātāti (unspoken) religious vow, or new alternatives. |
