<![CDATA[The phenomenon of pregnant marriage, which is a marriage that takes place because of pregnancy outside of marriage, is an important issue that involves various legal and social perspectives. KHI article 53 supports the legality of pregnant marriage by establishing specific rules to protect the rights of women and children. The main factors that trigger pregnant marriages include a lack of religious education, the influence of the social environment, and weak family supervision. Adulterous children in KHI Article 186 and MUI only have a nasab relationship with the mother and her family.
