Acid attack is one of the crimes against the whole physical integrity of individuals, which due to its very violent and horrific nature and the harmful consequences results in harm and irreparable physical and psychological damage to the victim. In addition to the procedure and substantive rules and regulations that have been generally enacted to protect victims, special procedure and substantive rules need to be followed, depending on the specific circumstances of the victims of the acid attack to support them. Therefore, the Iranian legislature, in a decent measure under the influence of victimization learning and knowledge of the specific circumstances of acid attack victims, passed " The punishment intensification law of acid attacks and protects its victims." Despite the supports such as compensation for the physical and moral damages, payments of medical expenses, provision of psychological services, assistance and rehabilitation, etc., which are set out in the said law for the victims of acid attacks, unfortunately, the legislature has been unaware of issues such as the lack of anticipation of unemployment compensation, the need of having a lawyer, neglecting the role of NGOs in supporting victims of acid attacks, the need for electronic legal services, and etc. The necessity of the present study, which is "descriptive-analytical", is the novel support of the victims of acid attacks, and its main purpose is to analyze innovations and extract the shortcomings of the victims of acid attacks and finally offer suggestions for eliminating shortcomings.

Acid attack, also called acid throwing which is the form of violent assault is known as one of the  crimes against the physical integrity of individuals that  in most of cases, it is motivated by revenging defiguring, making life so difficult for the victim and his health compromising. In target countries, it has been attempting to minimize the amount of crime committed by strict regulations. Since according to the Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence, the punishment of acid attack can not be restricted to the form of canonical penalties and punishments, the main question arises that whether it is possible to condemn the perpetrators to perform retaliation as well as throwing acid on the corresponding member in his body or not. But acid attack may cause (hot) burns in the victim person as well as burning punishment can be only investigated in the form of injury (wound). Hence, performing retaliation is only allowed when the injury caused by the crime is consistent with the injuries caused by the retaliation. This research which has been conducted through using analytical-descriptive research method also based on library research method shows that according to the (horrific) nature of acid attack crime, it is so impossible that can be repeated for the perpetrator’s (corresponding member of) body. Therefore, the judicial procedure cannot be defensible for judicial sentencing as retaliation (for acid attack perpetrators) as well as the perpetrator should be only guilty of paying a (blood of money) ransom or compensation however retaliation is less likely to be incurred as a result of the victim's injury. Although there is no room for retaliation with imprisonment, if another crime issue is realized, perpetrators can be condemnned to discretionary punishments (imprisonment, exile, working at compulsory camps and etc ...) or canonical penalties (corruption and moharebeh).
