Abstract :
This article seeks to answer these questions: what is the main challenge in the interaction of traditional jurisprudence and law in the construction and transformation of Iran's criminal policy? Also, which of the criminal justice policy governing the Islamic Penal Code is more compatible with international or Islamic criteria? In order to achieve this purpose, the most important factors of tension between the changeable sharia punishments and human rights norms in Iran's criminal policy should be recognized; The means of achieving this goal is to study and research the recent developments of Iran's legal criminal policy (Islamic Penal Code, Criminal Procedure Code and several other recently approved main criminal laws) in order to measure the dominant discourse in the field of punishment. The article explains that the translationism of jurisprudence and the raw injection of jurisprudence into Iranian criminal law, the confusion in the way of adapting the laws of western countries, and the lack of foundation for the implementation of new penal institutions, are the most important manifestations of the aforementioned challenge; As the judicial criminal policy governing the Islamic Penal Code, in the realm of punishment, retribution and atonements, is based on Islamic teachings, and in punishments to an acceptable and not desirable extent, is in line with some international standards of criminal law in the direction of protecting human rights.
