Abstract:
This research aims to clarify the religious judgement of the Part-time marriage and the role of religious institutions in confronting it, as the talk about it spread through social media sites and caused a widespread uproar. Part-time marriage means that a man marries a second wife on the condition that the overnight stay is one day a week. Since the idea of this type of marriage contradicts the legitimacy of nature of marriage and the original purpose of marriage of achieving tranquility, affection and compassion, so some rejected it and considered it forbidden and some others accepted it.  So, there was a need to discuss the ruling of Sharia on it. The Research followed the descriptive approach to induce roots of the issue and then the analytical approach to analyze the scientific material essays, researches, and theses and study them, to indicate the views of jurists on it. Among the most important results of the research that if the part -time marriage is limited to a period ending with its expiry, it is null and void and is not a from the legitimate marriage. And on the other hand, if it is a full marriage in conditions and pillars and is not limited to a period, except that the woman waived her right of overnights sleep, or consented to her husband to sleep one day a week; this is a legitimate marriage and this condition is not necessary, and they may refer to it if conditions change. Although this marriage is sound as it has the full of conditions and elements, it contradicts many of the purposes of legitimate  marriage.  This fatwa is not to be generalized then so as not to affect the original purpose of marriage of achieving tranquility and affection, rather it should only be valid for those whose circumstances were suitable to such type.
