Abstract

Obligations of an individual, whether willingly or imposed unwillingly, should one day come to an end clearing one from one's obligation, It would be
impossible if the debtor should be treated as being indebted to the creditor for ever ,For this would contradict one's freedom as well as legal justice,
Fulfillment of an obligation is the main cause of termination and extinction of an obligation whose judgements and issues are discussed comprehensively in
juristic texts as well as legal books. The discussion of the definition and nature of this important juristic, legal title, however, is neglected by writers
and researchers. This essay is an attempt to fill this vacancy through a critical study of various ideas concerning that issue found here and there.
