Determining the interests and foundations of the type of child from the perspective of Imami jurisprudence

The principle of non-wilayat in Imami jurisprudence is one of the important and fundamental principles that negates the wilayat of any human being over another. In the meantime, guardianship over a minor is one of the exceptions to this principle, considering the special conditions of the child. However, the element of expediency is necessary as a limited and binding issue of guardianship and management of the child's affairs. The interest of the child can be divided into general and personal in terms of being general or personal. In jurisprudence texts, personal interest is considered, while the interests of others can be inferred from jurisprudence sources. Determining these types of criteria can be explained according to the stages of human life and different developmental periods and the end of the child in each period. This can help guardians and judges in making decisions about children and evaluating these decisions.
