https://doi.org/10.22311/2074-1529-2017-13-2-153-162

Abstract

There  took  place  the  Islamic  revolution in  Iran  in  1979, which  main  inspirer and  spiritual leader  was the  Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini (1900/1902–1989). Imam Khomeini proposed the  concept of the  Islamic  state that was realized in the  political structure of modern Iran.  The  article analyzes two  aspects  associated with  this  concept: the  ground of Islamic  rule  and  the doctrine of "Wilayat  al-Faqih" (rule by the [righteous] faqih), and there is also determined their  relationship with the previous tradition.
