Abstract

It is well –known that the woman has no right to practise the work of judges or to work side by side with the judges in the courts of the Arabic and Islamic states including the Iraqi courts.
But, some religious scholars gave permission to the woman to work as a writer of the marriage contract. People differ in this case, some agree that the women have the right to be writers of the marriage contract, others disagree.
This research tries to investigate the nature of this work and the legal attitude that concerns practising this work by the woman. Also the opinions that support this view point or refuse it are clarified. The most important conclusions that the present research arrived at are also mentioned in this research.
