Abstract

Purpose: This article is the result of a research entitled "Mate selection based on Islamic teachings: Qualitative analysis of Kitab al-Kafi". Methods: Due to the thematic nature and the qualitative content  analysis, no conceptual model or hypothesis was not developed. Instead, based on this method, the main research question was ""How is mate selection in Islam?" Results:  In addition to selecting the key points from Islamic scripts, a unique code was assigned to each key point or theme. Then, by comparing the codes, several concepts that pointed to a common dimension of mate selection from Islamic view were recognized. The result of comparing each concept with other concepts yielded  subjects which form the triple-based foundations for mate selection from Islam's viewpoint.   These activities resulted in design of a pattern for mate selection based on three principles of selection style, selection standards, and selection process. Conclusion: Based on these three principles, in Islamic mate selection, first the requirements, philosophy, benefits, and goals of marriage should be determined. Then, the criterion for correct and accurate selection should be introduced, and in the selection process actions be taken according to the Islamic principles. Because of the  importance of customization of premarital counseling models in the country, preparing this model with the existing body of knowledge in Islamic references can be of greater use for those involved in this domain.
