In the first part of the article the author presents a historical perspective on the formation of the category of consummation in marriage between baptized spouses and its significance for the absolute indissolubility of marriage.

Finally, the author discuses the meaning of the legal figure of the non ratum et non consummatum marriage.

Konstytucja RP opisuje małżeństwo jako instytucję będącą przedmiotem pieczy ustawodawcy wskazując także na trwałość związku, a jednak to właśnie ta cecha okazuje się być najczęściej rozbijana. Dotyczy to całej Polski, ale w sposób szczególny rozpad małżeństw dotyka województwo lubuskie. Były mąż i była żona funkcjonują gorzej nie tylko w życiu prywatnym, ale na wszystkich jego płaszczyznach, także zawodowej. Uwzględniając więc współczesne przeobrażenia w omawianym zakresie, szczególnie na terenie województwa lubuskiego, można domyślać się, że pozostawienie kwestii rozwodów wyłącznie prywatnym ocenom ich uczestników, skazuje dotknięte rozpadem związków małżeńskich społeczeństwo na kryzys, którego konsekwencje osłabią nie tylko rozbitą rodzinę

The Constitution of the Republic of Poland describes marriage as an institution which is the subject of a custody of the legislator, indicating at the same time the durability of a relationship, a feature which most often breaks down. This phenomenon affects the whole of Poland, but the dissolution of a marriage affects Lubuskie voivodeship in a peculiar way. A former husband or a former wife function worse not only in their private lives but also in all their professional areas. Taking into account contemporary transformations in the discussed area (especially in the Lubuskie voivodeship), it is easy to guess that by leaving the issue of divorce exclusively to the private assessment of their participants, one condemns the divorce prone society to a crisis, which will result in weakening not only a broken family.
This Article presents the Islamic doctrine about marriage. Presenting it as flowing from the nature of Islamic law. The Author presents the objectives and effects of the union of a man and a woman, paying attention to the difficulties appearing in mixed marriages. The context for the presentation of norms for the marriages with Christians is the Catholic understanding of union of a man and woman. Filling the law, understood as submission to the will of God (Arabic word Islam means just submission/surrender) is to lead the human and the community to achieve temporal and eternal happiness. The doctrine of Islam strictly defines the duties of man, taking heed to his moral weakness. In marriage law, where possibility of easy dismissal wifes, or breach of contract contrasts with the austerity principles regarding religious upbringing of children, it is especially visible.
