In Imami jurisprudence and Islamic Penal Code, the theft issue has been introduced as one of the crimes against human property and ownership: a) Theft which is comprehensive of the penance condition and is referred to as the penance theft; in this case, the thief is sentenced to theft. b) Robbery committed in the form of armed robbery or banditry and causes public terror, in which case it is regarded as combat and corruption on earth and its perpetrator is condemned as combat and corruptor on earth. c) Theft that does not meet any of the above- mentioned conditions; in this case, it is known as canonical punishment theft and the thief is canonical punishment. This article deals with partial theft in the Islamic Penal Code of 2013 and its compliance with jurisprudential texts. Through studying the jurisprudential sources related to the issue of theft, they have determined the limits and punishments appropriate to the form and dimensions of theft crime. The proposed article has of course never been attempted to provide comprehensive research; however as far as possible, the related issues should be presented based on the research topic.

Background: Sometimes the involvement of several people in an operation leads to killing someone else. Anyone who can be charged with murder is a murderer, thus whenever the act of murder is documented to more than one person, a joint sentence can be issued between them. There are differences among the scholars about the retaliation permission of all partners; which is attempted to be illustrated in this article. The issue of complicity in murder is a problem related to retribution by which the courts in the country have received a majority of verdicts. The reason for this pluralism is the lack of issue recognition. It should be noted that retaliation is a ruling that relies on the individuals’ lives and dignity; therefore, it is essential to be careful in its implementation, and to know all its related matters. This investigation tries to identify all cases in which retribution is imposed on all participants. The ruling of Article 373 in the Islamic Penal Code, which stipulates the retribution of all partners in premeditated murder, is in terms of the verse “النفس بالنفس” and the caution principle for extravagance in murder, in terms of the punishment purpose as the non-interference of them in the punishment of killing a criminal who even commits numerous crimes and deserves several punishments is an issue of extravagance in murder. Materials and Methods: The proposed article is based on analytical-descriptive study of laws, jurisprudence, jurisprudential sources, legal books and articles as well as the other sources, their inference and conclusion. Findings: Not wasting in murder is an expression taken from verse 33 of Surah Al-Isra′ in which after stating the sanctity of killing someone and the right of the victim's guardian towards the murderer is prohibited from excessive murder. The verse appearance in terms of its previous phrase illustrates not to exaggerate in retaliation, however in terms of the term murder can also include cases where an individual deserves to be executed, so the extension of the death penalty such as the ropes use which cause taking a breather becomes extravagant in murder. Hence, being doubted this citation; we could not order the complicity in the murder. This research has been conducted by library method.
