Abstract

This article examines the Islamic Penal code of 1370 (1991)
and the ways in which certain misappropriations of original texts have created many problems. For example article 327 fin de the paternal relatives of the offendere responsible for unintentional offenses while the will and intentional decision associated with the
act is absent. In yet another part, Articles 225 and 323 could be better justifed based on the jurists' opinions and principles of Islamic jurisprudence. The purpose hence is to explicate the incongruities and flaws of the law and how it could be rectified.
