Critique of the Women's Republic

The purpose of this article is to analyze the condition of being a man for the presidency based on the principles of jurisprudence and the constitution; therefore, jurisprudential arguments have been studied in this regard by adopting the method of content analysis. The necessity and importance of paying attention to this issue is due to the fact that in the past, based on the logic of reason, the manners of the Ahl al-Bayt and verses and narrations, have ruled to deny women's tenure in the general affairs of society. Matters such as differences of opinion of jurists, the emergence of the presidency, a different understanding of its nature (province or power of attorney) and the requirements and conditions of society, led to the legislators in the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran, instead of state that the president is a man, have used the term "politicians" that according to some interpretations, it is not in conflict with the being woman a president. Therefore, the most important achievement of this article is that based on the constitution and jurisprudential principles and arguments, can be concluded that women's tenure is preferable to a macro-socio-political one such as the presidency.
