According to him, Quranic concepts such as affection (Mawaddah), mercy (Rahmah), and tranquility (Sakinah) should be mentioned in the legal definition of marriage in the Civil Code of Iran so that this entity may regain its proper place. He calls for a revision of the legal definition of marriage based on Quranic teachings.<ref>Mohaghegh Damad and Dadmarzi, "Comparative Study of the Nature of Marriage in Fiqh and Positive Law," p. 94.</ref> Citing the [[Rule of No-Hardship|Rule of No-Hardship]] (La Haraj) and the rules of [[Expediency Rule|Expediency]] (Maslahah) and the [[Rule of Justice|Justice]], he suggests that the requirement of religious and denominational compatibility in marriage be reviewed in light of social developments and changing status of women.<ref>Mohaghegh Damad et al., "The Validity of the Requirement of Religious and Denominational Compatibility in Marriage in the Law of Iran, Egypt, and Lebanon," p. 25.</ref> | ||
