  The victim's consent and permission to the commission of a crime cannot eliminate the specific characteristics of a criminal act and cannot be considered as a justification for the crime, because it is in conflict with the general principles governing criminal law, and on the other side, the purpose of enactment of laws is the maintenance of law and order as well as the fulfillment of the public interests and rights. Hence, the consent of the victim against the commission of the offense cannot have a legal effect as a reason to approve an action and to prevent the punishment execution. However, in specific cases, the legislature has considered the victim's dissatisfaction as one of the basic elements in the development of crimes, so that the commission of such crimes requires the victim's dissatisfaction with the act committed against him/her. Thus, the victim's consent prevents criminal liability from being proven. In this article, it has been attempted to analyze, evaluate, and criticize the importance and effects of victim satisfaction in criminal responsibility from the perspective of Iranian law and the views of Islamic jurists.
