Protecting the rights of children, who are the future builders of societies, is of great importance today,
and in the meantime, determining the rights of children arising from illegitimate relationships is a
controversial issue. In the present article, which has been compiled by the method of legal analysis, the
sources of Imami jurisprudence, subject law and the Convention on the Rights of the Child have been
examined. Most Imami jurists believe that an illegitimate child should not be involved in adultery and
adultery, and have not identified any other relationship between the child and his customary parents
other than the sanctity of marriage, and Iranian civil law has followed this issue. In jurisprudence,
illegitimate children are deprived of a series of rights over legal children, such as inheritance, judgment,
martyrdom, congregational leadership, and the authority of imitation, which are in terms of special
conditions and competencies that illegitimate children do not have; In any case, the alimony of an
illegitimate child is the responsibility of his parents, because the holy law of Islam, which is the religion
of kindness and kindness, does not allow any innocent child to be left unprotected in society. The
Convention on the Rights of the Child recognizes children as having full rights and does not distinguish
between legitimate and illegitimate children; Iran's accession to this convention is conditional, so in
matters that are against the law, the provisions of the convention are not acceptable. In order to protect
illegitimate children and determine the legal status of these children, the General Assembly of the
Supreme Court, Procedure No. 617, No. 317, dated 3/4, 1997 It is the responsibility of the customary
father, which is an important step in protecting the rights of illegitimate children.
