Polygamy as a cultural category is one of the important issues in the field of women's studies. This issue has been relatively common in previous societies. What is certain that polygamy existed more or less among different classes and strata of Iranian society during the Qajar era. In the literary and political texts of the late period of Naseral-Din Shah and especially after the constitution, due to the familiarity of writers and poets with the West and theexpansion of communication, more attention is paid to women's issues. This research, relying on the literary and political texts and sourcesof the Qajar and constitutional eras and new researches, has researched and investigated the approachof political, social and literary texts to the issue of polygamy by descriptive-explanatory method and content analysis. Studies show that paying attention to this issue and its causes and consequences in the critical view of literary and political thinkers from middle of the Qajar period and especially theconstitutional period became very important and became one of the important issues in their studies. It is worth pondering that informing women about their position and not considering it normal has been one of the issues of concern to intellectuals and thinkers

The phenomenon of polygamy although is not the dominant structure of family life in Iran, but among the Sunni people, particularly the Baloch, is a common phenomenon such that the highest observed proportion of polygamy is in Sistan and Balochistan province. The tribal structure of the Baloch people and their adherence to their ethnic and religious tradition have paved the way for this phenomenon. This phenomenological study, by investigating the causes of polygamy spread among the Baloch living in Chabahar, seeks to answer the question “How polygamous culture has been able to reproduce itself?”. On the other hand, “Are Baloch women willing and able to resist against polygamous family structure or simply have accepted these conditions?”. It was found out that Polygamy in Sistan and Balochistan is an accepted culture because in many cases, it increases the number of children and, as a result, the social and economic power of the family and tribe. This is against the situation of Baloch women in the social and economic hierarchy, their financial dependence, lack of legal support for divorce, and lack of social support. In addition, the breadth of this phenomenon has a cultural background, rather than age or wealth of men, and it cannot be limited to a particular tribe or social class. Regarding second question, findings of the current study showed that, although the decision to live in polygamy is usually a one-sided decision made by men, women are not only passive and receptive because compensation or revenge-based strategies have given them a degree of subjectivity to react against this family structure in an informal and silent way.

Social health depends on different social and cultural factors. One of the most important suppliers of individual’s health is family structures and relations. In recent years due to functional changes in polygamous structure, there are threats against social health of men in Sarbaz city. In this research, to compare the rate of social health of men in polygamous and monogamous families in Sarbaz city we use a standard questionnaire of Shapiro & Keyes (2007). The population of this study consisted of 300 males who are residents of this city. They selected by using cluster sampling method. Gathered data were analyzed using SPSS software version 22. Findings from independent T-Test revealed that the average of social Coherence, Integration, Contribution and Actualization between men in polygamous families were significantly lower than monogamous. Based on these findings, we can conclude however a lot of traditional social customs were useful, functional and compatible and provide social acceptance, but today have become dysfunctional and threated social health of family members and community system face with crisis.

This study seeks to furnish the rationale and philosophy for the permissibility of polygamy in Islam. It endeavors to present a coherent explanation in order to defend this rule against the existing questions and objections in the contemporary era. Elaborating on the correct method of defending the juridical and legal rules and regulations, the author presents three major views as the rationales. The most important factor for permissibility of polygamy in Islam is the dissimilarity of sexual instincts between man and woman and greater excitability and vigorousness of that instinct in men which has led to legalization of polygamy in Islam. That is because the current legal system in many countries which is based on monogamy has failed to regulate the sexual relations between men or to prevent extra-marital relationships. Conclusively, it can be said that monogamy in ordinary situations is morally more desirable and permissibility of polygamy is based on certain inevitable exigencies which have something to do with men's powerful sexual drive. Thus, only in case of need and in urgent cases, action may be taken for remarriage.

Now days it is assumed that polygamy is inconsistent with human rights and it seems irrelevant to discuss and redefine this case. Some scholars believe this is not even a hypothesis that needs justification or confirmation. According to human rights and international laws this is accepted as a fundamental right and assumes the equality of man and women. With this presupposition in mind this paper will discuss the measure of conformity of polygamy with human rights.

The Government recently presented so-called Protection of Family Bill to the Islamic Consultative Assembly of parliament. Legal and Judicial Commission has limited the allowance of polygamy in 10 cases after examining it.In this paper the teaching of polygamy has been defensed in theological manner and known against of Jurisprudential principles and proven that limiting polygamy in rare cases can not obviate the social necessity of that in the case of women and girls who are deprived of being the first wife. In addition to oppression of women and girls who remained unmarried that this limiting causes, it leads to extension of corruption, secret relationships and expansion of divorce.
