Abstract

There is no such thing as Islamic political philosophy; but there are many Islamic political philosophies (i.e., characterized and attributed to the Islamic religion). Some of them are meaningless, meaningless, and have their ears cut off!! The same is true of the meaninglessness of expressions such as Eastern or Western political philosophy and the like. The difference between these and philosophy and philosophical nature is the same as the difference between “Salma” and “Salmaa”; one (Salmaa) indicates health, and the other (Salmaa) indicates the natural and congenital absence of an organ such as the ear in the human body.
Talking about concepts such as Islamic political philosophy, indigenous criminal policymaking, indigenous criminal science, indigenous philosophy, etc. when we consider the existence and nature of scientific or metascientific (philosophical) concepts in an abstract space from reading approaches and ideological perceptions of them is doomed to rejection. Science, metascience, and philosophy are always, everywhere, and at all times one thing, and that’s it! They have a systematic and specific nature and content that cannot be traced to different and contradictory types and existences based on time and geography. But all of these can be studied from a specific perspective, a specific theory, or a specific political, religious, and needs-based tendency, and different perceptions can be expected. These are two different categories. When faced with the concept and application of criminal policymaking as a limited type of public policymaking, if the constructed meanings and statements of the climate that are today and of course historically the internal and external structure of what is called Islamic political philosophy are to be the criterion, we will probably encounter surprising positions compared to the concealment of the science of criminal policymaking in a scientific and ontological context. This article, in a descriptive-analytical manner, has attempted to transcend the partisan, stratified, and anti-naturalistic view of such interpretations and will show that the thoughts expressing the existence of Iranian criminal policymaking and also the existence of Islamic political philosophy(ies) that are distinct from the extra-temporal-spatial germs of these sciences in an abstract state are fundamentally an epistemological and methodological error and a futile attempt to prove something non-existent and deserve to be rejected and abandoned altogether!! Also, in the conceptual realm that is referred to as criminal policymaking in Iran today, discussing issues such as criminal axes, lines, and connections arising from Islamic philosophy is essentially something like heresy and unacceptable! This is why these types of philosophies have been destructive in many ways and, for example, have caused the spread of more deviant forms of criminal policymaking.
