Adoption is one of the most important issues that has received special attention in all legal systems. The purpose of this article is to examine the financial obligations of guardians towards the adopted child in the light of jurisprudence and Iranian law.

This research is of theoretical type and the research method is descriptive-analytical and the method of data collection is library and has been done by referring to documents, books and articles.

The findings of the present study show that the approach of fiqh to the situation of the adopted child is a traditional approach and considering the principle of good faith, However, due to the changes that have taken place at the community level, the legislator has become more sensitive to the financial obligations of guardians. The main reason for this is the difference between the main basis of adoption in fiqh and Iranian legal system.

Ethical Considerations:

 In order to organize this research, while observing the authenticity of the texts, honesty and fidelity have been observed.

The main basis of adoption in the first place in fiqh, the principle of benevolence and the basis of its rules are mainly in the framework of worship; Whereas in Iranian law, due to the abuses that may be committed against the adopted child in practice, the main basis of adoption in the first place is the protection of the adopted child and the lack of attention to the principle of benevolence by the guardians.
