The desire for immortality is rooted in human nature. For a long time, people never liked to be enclosed in parentheses between birth and death. Undoubtedly, having children has been one of the ways to cure this pain and satisfy the feeling of not dying and being limited. The ancient Iranians also covered this need with metaphysical clothing. According to them, a person who has no children has a limited life before the Chinvat Bridge and cannot cross the bridge and become immortal. For this reason, survivors' inheritance laws have become very important with the aim of accepting children and adoption. This article examines the laws of childbearing, laws of Foster child and adopted child, and also the share of inheritance of survivors in the Zoroastrian tradition, and searches ancient Zoroastrian texts, as well as compares them with the personal status of Zoroastrians in contemporary Iranian civil law. This comparison shows many changes and examines the factors of these changes.
