Unlike modernists who sought human issues as permanent entities, postmodernists believe in everything to be of a transient nature. In the same vein, they argue that love and law are ephemeral rather than eternal entities. Mariage blanc has increased in many aspects corollary to this ideology. In a world of no restrictions, postmodernists indulge in short and diverse satisfactions, whereas the classic world believed that long-lasting personal relationships are more important to personal fulfillment and happiness. Therefore, attitude toward marriage for a durable satisfaction is subdued to having a serious relationship. It seems, however, that quality in the relationships is superseded by quantity in the postmodern era.}, keywords = {postmodernism,family,Marriage,Law,Islam,love}, url = {https://ijicl.qom.ac.ir/article_2310.html}, eprint = {https://ijicl.qom.ac.ir/article_2310_6ac32183885700d1aeec27c0f6e00918.pdf} }
