The observance of women’s social prestige is of a particular importance considering their increasingly significant rights. The investigation of the women’s social prestige from the perspective of Imam Khomeini, as a jurisprudent who founded Islamic Republic of Iran, is of a double significance. The present study evaluates the women’s social prestige in marriage from the perspective of Imam Khomeini. Numerous studies have been conducted in the area of Imam Khomeini’s approach towards women. However, his highness’s perspective about the women’s social prestige in marriage and in relation to their spouses has been neglected. The main question of the present study is that how the women’s social prestige can be evaluated in marriage from the perspective of Imam Khomeini? The study is a descriptive-analytical research and uses a library research method to find an answer to the abovementioned question. The article’s results indicated that Imam Khomeini (PBUH) believed in the observance of the women’s social prestige in relation to their spouses. Based thereon, Imam Khomeini (PBUH)’s perspective about the observance of the wives’ prestige in respect to the ultimate goals of marriage includes wives’ prestige in regard of their alimony, wives’ prestige in being supplied with the necessary needs, supply of food, supply of clothing, supply of house furniture, employment of a maid, supply of the costs of drug and treatment, supply of the cleaning and bathing costs as well as the wives’ prestige in employment rights and participation in the economic activities, wives’ prestige in going out of the house for getting the required jobs done, observance of the wives’ veneration and respect, education right, the right and prestige for the determination of a living place and other related rights and respects.
