Abstract

After the Islamic Revolution, many questions have been raised about the Islamic government and its actions against social anomalies, and these questions continue to be asked today. One of these questions is about the legitimacy of the government's actions in the field of religious education; is such an action legitimate from the perspective of jurisprudence and is there any jurisprudential evidence to support its legitimacy? In this article, with a jurisprudential approach and based on library sources and the Shiite ijtihad method, the evidence for the legitimacy and illegitimacy of the government's actions in the field of religious education will be examined. The result is that, unlike those who consider the government's actions in the field of religious education to be contrary to the character of religious leaders and have considered this work to be devoid of a religious basis, the government's actions in this field are not only legitimate; but also among the religious duties of government institutions. This ruling is based on the rules of educational jurisprudence and specific evidence, including verses and narrations.
