Abstract :
Entering the fifth decade of the revolution, the issue of poverty in the country remains
unresolved; and the issue of social justice in the sense of addressing the affairs of the
poor and oppressed is one of the biggest challenges facing the Islamic government that
can jeopardize the sovereignty of the political system. Considering that maintaining the
Islamic system is the first approach of the government, it can increase the need to help
these people. In this category, by examining the views of sociologists and political
thinkers, emphasizing the ideas of the founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the
founder of the Imam Khomeini Relief Committee as the largest intermediary body of
the government that is responsible for dealing with the poor and oppressed; Attempts
will be made to answer the question of what kind of government model the position of
the poor and oppressed in the thoughts of Imam Khomeini provides for the realization
of social justice.
