One of the main factors in preventing crime is the enforcement of limits. There are many differences of opinion among jurists and legal scholars on the issue of the public implementation of limits. Some believe in the incumbency and some believe in the desirability of the public implementation of limits, and in contrast to them, there is a group that opposes the public implementation of limits. Wohn considers religion as the reason for his opposition to the public implementation of limits. This research aims to explain the effects of the public implementation of limits in crime prevention in response to the question, how can the public implementation of limits be effective in reducing crimes? With the analytical-critical research method, by emphasizing the meaning of Holy Qur'an (verse 2 of Surah Noor), the available evidences and citing the prominent opinions of jurists, we reached these results that the cases of public implementation of punishment in the jurisprudential sources of the Qur'an and hadiths are limited. However, by ascertainment in cases where the crime causes public opinion to be humiliated, the punishment can be carried out publicly to be a factor in preventing crime and corruption in the society. Also, proving the theory of the effectiveness of the public enforcement of limits in reducing crimes and criticizing the arguments of its opponents, are among the results of this research.
