Iranchr('39')s judicial approach often uses the gender of the perpetrator at the time of the crime as the criterion for sentencing and does not involve itself in other possibilities. (However, maintaining the exemption from retaliation of the father and paternal ancestor after the murder of the child, despite the adaptation of gender, is an exception to this claim.) In relation to crimes such as apostasy, based on the principle of interpretation in favor of the accused, gender is the criterion for issuing a sentence that does not impose a heavy punishment on the perpetrator. However, the observer procedure in some tachr('39')zir crimes, such as abandoning almsgiving, in which the sex of the perpetrator is effective in prosecuting him, implies the fulfillment of the spousechr('39')s obligations before the sex change.
