Introduction: Marriage is a critical step towards the achievement of individual
and collective human perfection. Homogamy is a common feature advised for the
mate selection in religion and psychology. The aim of this study was to investigate
the rank of Homogamy in Fegh-h and compare it with psychology. Methods: This analytical and documental study was conducted through referring
to the scientific and religionious documents such as released articles and Fegh-h
books. Findings: The results showed that first, the homogamy is an acceptable theory
among psychologists.second, religious homogamy is paid attention more than
other aspects of homogamy by the psychologists. On the other hand, Kufwiat in
Fegh-h is more slightly similar to the homogamy in psychology and Fegh-h does
not permit the marriage with a person who is not considerd as a religious Kufw. Conclusion: A comparison between psychologists and jurists ideas indicated
firstly that the study of psychologists confirmed the importance of Kufwiat
especially faith one and mentioned the useful works. Second, the Shiite jurists
have suggested that some of the criteria can be ignored provided that the main
criteria are fulfilled, while this prioritizing was not seen in the study of
psychologists
