description God created humans in the best form and legislated the laws of Sharia for them. In rare cases, humans are also born as conjoined twins, which can only be separated through surgery. Due to the ambiguity in the unity and multiplicity of the personalities of these twins and their existence in this world, the possibility of their marriage has become a subject of intense disagreement among Islamic jurists. Considering the silence of laws, this present research aims to answer the legal issues related to the marriage of conjoined twins by describing and analyzing the views of Islamic jurists. The research shows that providing an accurate answer requires a legal differentiation between conjoined twins, complete conjoined twins with shared or separate sexual organs and parasitic conjoined twins. Regarding the possibility of marriage, it should be noted that if separation is not possible, unlike complete twins who have shared sexual organs, there is a possibility of marriage for parasitoid twins and fraternal twins with separate sexual organs.
