Abstract

To handle its affairs, each country needs to form a government because man is inherently social and needs a social life. There must be a government in place to lead the society and prevent chaos; in the meantime, a government that, in addition to legislating and executing laws, engages its people in their destiny, is either a democratic government or a religiously founded democratic government. This article aims to investigate two types of governments and their characteristics as well as democratic failures and to describe the differences between democracy and religious democracy. It also uses Imam Ali's perspectives to reveal whether a religious democracy or a democracy prevails in an Islamic political system.
