Belief Ethical Principles in Jurisprudence: Approaches and Foundations

The ethics of belief deals with the moral norms governing the belief and maintenance of mental beliefs. Inferring a jurisprudential ruling is one of the jurisprudence's optional mental actions in the field of believing and maintaining jurisprudential beliefs (rulings). According to the ethics of belief, there are moral requirements to believe in a binding ruling and jurisprudential situation. But what are the requirements and moral principles governing belief in jurisprudence as a voluntary mental process? So far, there has been no discussion with this title and issue about jurisprudential beliefs. In this article, an attempt has been made to capture and introduce several views and general theories about the ethics of jurisprudential beliefs from jurisprudential discussions. Three general views about the ethics of jurisprudential belief can be used from the words of jurists; 1. The virtue-oriented approach emphasizes on the sanctity of ijtihad and considers an inference to be moral and correct, which is in accordance with moral virtues, 2. The duty-oriented approach on the way of human relationship with God, which is in the way of a slave and a conventional master or beyond that (theory of obedience) ) emphasizes and explains the general norm of the ethics of jurisprudence based on this, 3. The last approach is also consequentialist and emphasizes the goals of jurisprudence in setting the general norm of the ethics of jurisprudence.
