Abstract
One of the indisputable principles of Shiite jurists regarding transactions is the compliance of contracts with intent. However, in Shiite jurisprudence, we encounter issues whose appearance is contrary to this rule, and some transactions have been ruled to be done, although they are against the intention of the contractors. Among these issues is the matter of converting a temporary marriage into a permanent marriage if the period is not mentioned due to forgetfulness, modesty or intentional abandonment. Since this is contrary to the rule of compliance of contracts with intent, the question arises as to how, when a person does not have the will to have a permanent marriage, the formula results in a permanent marriage. In this article, we re-read the reasons for converting a temporary marriage into a permanent one and try to say that, the documents and proofs of converting a temporary marriage into a permanent one are not reliable. Moreover, we put forward two new reasons to prove that permanent marriage does not take place. This article uses analytical method.
