Advancements made in the biological-physical sciences in the past two hundred years have unprecedentedly increased our recognition of the world. Besides, progress, in applied dimensions of science, has given much vigor to mankind for using nature and control of human minds. But the outcomes of science and technology have been both beneficial and non-beneficial for man; for example, technical and scientific knowhow has produced more means of human welfare and promoted living standard considerably. On the other hand, this knowledge has been used for human destruction and dilapidation of the ecology and future of mankind is being threatened by burden of balefulness. To us, this balefulness, once being emerged, emanates from separation of knowledge from wisdom and rooted within sovereign universalism of secularism in the modern scientific communities. Nowadays, scientific investigations are conducted to secure desires of scientific communities or the powerful people and knowledge-wisdom separation triggers anxiety, lack of sense of security and weakness of ethics and spirituality. The learned people believing in such universalism appreciate the results of their actions and forget that science should serve people rather than exploit them. But in a deistic field, science accompanies wisdom and is applied for solving problems of man and human communities; an objective where God is pleased and man is prosperous. In this belief, nature is regarded as divine endowment which is up to man to keep it preserved. In this way, all plans related to technological and scientific advancements should be coordination with divine order and meet legitimate requirements of people and human communities.

Farabi, Avicenna and Khwajeh Nasiruddin Tusi raises the question, how is prosperity acquired in the framework of four factors? Is it acquired through outward areas, factors and tools (outside human soul), or outward tools are not required while inward areas like self-purification? In response, they regard it is acquired through factors and tools outside human soul, meaning civil tools. They tie prosperity to social dimensions of man and political system and say its acquisition can be achieved through promised desirable political system and civilians interaction based on wisdom and Shari’ah and distance from introvert political philosophies that pursue human prosperity through merely individual, spiritual and other-worldly tools and factors. To this aim, they prescribe a typically political system titled “Utopia” engineering and architecture of which could be designed for attainment of other-worldly-worldly, spiritual-material-individual prosperity.

Human happiness and perfection is indebted to thought and rationality. Intellect and thought also demand freedom and liberty to achieve actual discovery. Freedom of thought means valuing rational explorations and eliminating barriers to this discovery. Intellect has a special status in the Islamic sciences including jurisprudence principles that consider intellect as one of the issues and main sources of inferring rulings. Imam Khomeini (ra) is regarded as one of the salient contemporary jurisprudents and theoreticians and his writings and opinions, as the founder of the Islamic revolution, have always been concerned and investigated by the scholars indoors and outdoors and abundant studies have been conducted on works and ideas of Imam Khomeini (ra), but in this regard, no studies have been made on jurisprudence lessons. This is while intellect is included in the sources of rulings inference and main issues of jurisprudence. Therefore, this paper mainly raises this question that “what status does freedom of thought have in lessons of jurisprudence principles of Imam Khomeini (ra)?” This paper aims to prove that principles of free thinking in theology lessons of Imam Khomeini (ra) at the sublimated level of rationality. To achieve this aim, analytic-descriptive methodology has been applied. Results inferred from jurisprudence lessons of the deceased Imam are as: The deceased Imam not only disagreed on free thinking in the jurisprudence lessons, he has also presented strategies, rules and principles for proper thinking and kept it away from methods that lack rational credibility. Besides, intellect has been given widespread authorities and it is regarded as one of the sources of inference, it is given consideration and attention in inference.

This paper elucidates community-state relationship in the political thinking of Imam Khomeini (ra). Therefore, the question is that “on what basis of characteristics and how can communitystate relationship in the political thought of Imam Khomeini (ra) be elucidated?” Different theories have been raised about the relationship between community and state. These theories have looked into the relationship based on authority of state and community or weakness of state and community. Unlike the theories raised, a two-sided relationship is defined and community and state relationship is being elucidated in the shape of support, partnership, cooperation, guidance, religion, service and the like. Hence, extension of state is defined based on extension of community and vice versa; they are complementary, cause and effect of one another.

Theory of Velayat-e-Faqih of Imam Khomeini (ra) is one of the outstanding theories of Shiite jurisprudents about political system in the Occultation Age; for the same reason, understanding the nature of this theory, from the aspect of stability or development, has always been discussed by theorists. The present article tries to evaluate such category with a new view. Under such standard circumstances, it poses a theory for understanding development of stability that is nature of political jurisprudence knowledge as knowledge affiliated with jurisprudence in terms of principles, methodology and indebtedness to politics in subject-matter. On the other hand, the present article fails to adopt a general, identical and overall approach to all aspects of theory of Velayat-e-Faqih of Imam Khomeini (ra), thus not setting it as general topic of stability and development; rather, it raises three different roundups of this theory elements and refers to “evolution” as the third sidebesides stability and development by making a separation of three main elements of Imam’s theory meaning ranks, authorities, conditions, features and basis of Velayat-e-Faqih legitimacy. Moreover, the present article talks about role of people in actuality of government of jurisprudent from his point of view when looking into basis of legitimate Velayat-e-Faqih in his opinion and by relying on theory of “permission given”; it also tries to present an idea compatible with his real idea that contains democratic idea.

Domain of Religion is one of the most important components of Political Discourse whose surrounding disputes besides other factors has seriously affected political rivalries in the Islamic Republic of Iran. By using ideas of David Sanders and by completing and revising them, this paper has examined dimensions of this effect in four areas of regime change, change of government, peaceful challenges and non-peaceful challenges. Of course, the main issue is study of the aforementioned effect on peaceful challenges each of which, directly and indirectly, maximally and minimally can be expressed within creeds, stands, approaches, establishment of new parties and events. Also, by dividing ages of the Islamic Republic of Iran, dispute aboutdomain of religion has been examined in four periods of establishment, stabilization, reconstruction, reforms and fundamentalism from the viewpoint of the most important thinkers of political discourse analogous to political factions. This paper believes that dimensions of this effect have influenced the order, regularity or irregularity of political rivalries. In these ages, tension and dispute stands lower in the second period of reconstructive state and the first period of fundamentalist state and higher in political rivalries in the establishment period, in the first period of reforms and in second period of fundamentalism, where with the reduced or decreased level of dispute, domain of religion has reliable link besides other factors.

One of the central issues of progress model relates to area of politics; political jurisprudence claims it can resolve many of problems in this field. In the Islamic Republic of Iran Regime model, political jurisprudence should be made possible to undergo further consideration because it is arena of newly emerged issues and events. Jurisprudential inferences overseeing political action can help determine situation of a Muslim individual in political life. This, on one hand, necessitates explication of indexes of Iranian-Islamic model of progress. The present article has postulated the indexes concerned by the supreme leader of the Islamic revolution in order to standardize the religious necessities of political life in the international and internal areas. On the other hand, it has paid attention to capacities of political jurisprudence in order to provide necessary tenets for directionality of the subject model. The article has hypothesized that the Shiite political jurisprudence has the ability to present religious necessities pertinent to political life based on the Iranian-Islamic model of progress. To confirm this, analytic-descriptive methodology has been applied. As a result, in addition to “tradition-centered” ijtihad, “intellect-centered ijtihad shall be emphasized and individual-centered jurisprudence shall be transitioned to society-centered jurisprudence.

per
Permission for espionage largely affect security of community and it is one of the challenging and expanded issues in the political system and it is discussed and explored in some scientific corridors. It aims to protect the regime in the face of enemies and safeguard its achievements. Espionage is viewed as basic organ in political regime in line with the process of desirable management of community and removal of security problems on behalf of the Islamic ruler and all rational and traditional evidence that can back up its permission are explored. Of course, the first rational principle is that private affairs of others shall not be permitted to be spied, but due to observation of political regime interests, espionage is given permission and being regarded as mandatory at times. In this paper, the author tries to analyze evidence in order to evaluate espionage and its norms and scope are clarified in the eyes of Shiite jurisprudence.
