The present thesis titled “Permanent Marriage and Divorce in Case of Difference of Religions of the Couple from the Viewpoint of Five Islamic Jurisprudential Schools” aims at surveying the principles and conditions of marriage and divorce according to the fatwas (Jurisprudential viewpoints) of the scholars of these schools to supply a reference for anyone who wants to marry someone from a different religion but has no information on the rules of that religion about marriage and divorce. What is of significance here is that Islamic Jurisprudential Schools have some differences regarding their fatwas on some parts of the principles and conditions of marriage and divorce while in the absence of some of them marriage and divorce are null and void. For instance conditions like the presence of two witnesses in a marriage contract that is necessitated by the Hanafi Jurisprudential School is not necessary according to Imamyya School; or the presence of witness in a divorce contract that is not only necessitated by Imamyya School but two of them are needed while it is overlooked by the other four schools.
