Terrorism is one of the most important crimes that results in destroying the discipline and security of the society. Terrorists need financial support to achieve their goals and must supply their financial resources in some way. The people and groups that finance the terrorists commit terrorism financing crime, so the legislators have also paid attention to criminalization of terrorism financing besides the criminalization of the terrorism itself. However, the question is that what are the jurisprudential basics of criminalization of terrorism financing in Iranian criminal law? So, the purpose of this research is to investigate the jurisprudential basics of criminalization of terrorism financing. The research results indicate that the term "Terrorism Financing" corresponds to certain titles in "unlawful warfare" and "subscription on sin and hostility" in jurisprudence. In addition, there are verses, narratives, and jurisprudential rules that document the prohibition and criminalization of terrorism financing, and we can name some general rules such as the rule of "consuming the property of other for no good reason", the rule of "no injury", the rule of "prohibition of subscription on sin and hostility", and "preserving the life and security of the society" that justify criminalization of Terrorism Financing.
