Comparative Analysis of Self-defense in Imami Jurisprudence and International Law

Defending is to distance and to banish. The goal of defending is to gain the physical and mental security of the community. Defending is one of the important issues of today in the field of jurisprudence and Islamic law and international law, so that the individual deals with the persecution of his soul, personality and reputation. Defending in Islamic jurisprudence and international law has such conditions as the adequacy of defense with danger, military and armed aggression. These two sources are looked differently in some cases. Islam in some cases not only defines the defense as a kind of right but an obligatory duty. And the martyr is introduced as a person who is killed in the defense of privacy. However, it emphasizes the right in some contextual interpretations. The convergence and divergence of the principles of Islam with the foundations of the West begin from this point which is debatable in this study.
