Review on the Jurisprudential Verdict of the Electoral Participation in the Islamic Political System

Since the Islamic jurisprudence is the most important determinant of the necessity or non-necessity of governmental behavior in Islamic jurisprudence, this article intends to examine one of the most important political actions, namely electoral participation, from a jurisprudential perspective. In this regard, we have first considered this action in terms of "right" and "duty" and have shown that people have the right to govern in order to provide them with a platform for political participation. In the next step, once the right is exercised, it is imperative for the people to participate in this context, the most important of which is to be present in the present election. To prove this claim, we refer to the religious texts and sources of jurisprudence with a jurisprudential approach, and we have therefore focused on three main reasons which include: 1. the necessity of maintaining the system and maintaining its authority, 2. the position of caliphate and the responsibility of the people, 3. Authorities in the Al-Faragh area.
