Iraq’s Public Administrative Policies - Connections to Religion and the Views of the Islamic State

Abstract

For the Western world, the administrative policies are regarded as rules and regulations passed by the legislative bodies. These are the core aspects keeping the society strong, in order to fulfill some of the goals that the people pertaining to certain groups have in common. The purpose of the present article is to provide an understanding of the way the public administrative system of policies in Iraq functions, taking into account the teachings of the Holy Qur’an, the Islamic religion, and the influence of the Islamic State. The motivation behind the present topic is represented by the attempt of clarifying the fact that the Middle Eastern administrative system is based on the teachings of the Holy Book. Unlike the Western ways of the society, the Ummah (the Islamic community), is very influenced by the Qur’an, having a tendency to rely on the Word of Allah, seeking answers for their daily struggles.
