Abstract

Economic analysis of law is a theory that evaluates and corrects legal regulations by using economic tools, considering efficiency as it’s main goal. Reviewing some of the critiques, raises doubts about the possibility of utilization of it’s whole achievements in Islam. Despite some efforts to prove the theory on the basis of pure rational propositions and jurisprudence rule of expediency, those reasons cannot prove the theory totally. The important question that hasn’t yet been answered, is that can any foundation be found in Islamic jurisprudence that proves it totally? This article has been written on the basis of this necessity, proving the impossibility of concluding the totality of the theory from Islamic jurisprudence. It also presents, for the first time, a new attitude in light of the rule of system disorder negation. Although, it seems difficult to admit the possibility of correcting Islamic verdicts in order to gain private utility as a general rule, but if the inefficiency of verdicts or lack of them creates disturbance in economic subsystem’s interests in a big scale, lifting inefficient verdicts or issuing efficient ones will be allowed but necessary, because governmental verdicts, based on economic system disorder negation, are prior to primitive and secondary verdicts. Economic analyzing of Islamic rulings in order to preserve general interests is permissible just in cases of contradiction with governmental economic expediencies, it is also reliable as long as expediency necessitates and it doesn’t appose stronger expediencies. so it has a more restricted domain compared to the theory.
