المستخلص: New technologies in communications have accelerated daily transactions by concluding contracts instantly between persons spotted in different countries. Basically, to conclude a contract offer must match acceptance depending on parties’ intentions. Intentions are naturally invisible unless unearthed explicitly by uttered verb tenses. Consequently, verb tenses have impacts on concluding contracts. However, contracting using past tense differs than using present or future tenses. According to Iraqi and Sharia laws, some tenses conclude the contract, others do not, while a third category is in-between. Therefore, such tenses were envisaged as criterions to measure the extent of parties’ intentions or ‘meeting of minds’ to make a contract. We highlighted this problem using a critical, analytical and comparative approach between Iraqi and Sharia laws to fill the gaps in the legal paradigm. As a result, we have compared these tenses and found that texts, words and even letters have significant roles in concluding contracts. Furthermore, Iraqi Civil Code is derived from Sharia law, which is dated back for more than 1400 years. At that time, there was only the formal language when street language was not yet in existence. Nowadays especially in Facebook marketplace, countless numbers of sales are conducted hourly and the vast majority of them is performed using slang or street language. Therefore, applying Iraqi and Sharia laws regarding verb tenses would obstruct daily transactions patently because these laws are tailored only to fit with formal language. To sum up, some tenses affect contracts positively by considering them as criterions determining the extent of parties’ intentions. However in the light of electronic contracts, another category of these tenses restricts electronic commerce as such they should be reviewed by Iraqi law-making committee to come up with new technology challenges.
