Bahá'í teachings on sexual morality center on marriage and
the family as the bedrock of the whole structure of human society and are
designed to protect and strengthen that divine institution. Thus Bahá'í Law
restricts permissible sexual intercourse to that between a man and the woman to
whom he is married.
