Evaluate the reasons of "protecting government officials" in the Islamic Government

Throughout history, government officials and important personalities have always been at risk. The main question of this research is "Is the protection of officials and personalities accepted in Islam"? To answer this question, we referred to the main sources of Islam and this main question was answered by a jurisprudential method. In this study, two different categories of evidence were found; Arguments that agree with and support the protection of personalities and officials in Islam, and arguments that seem to conflict with protection. Following various works and examining the evidence, the result of this research was that protection in Islam is a certain and accepted thing; However, according to the desirable characteristics of the Islamic ruler, the desirable fraternal relations in the community of faith and the beliefs of the believer, conditions and conditions must be set for it. In the meantime, the prohibition of intentional destruction and the order to guard in the prayer of fear are the most important arguments in favor of guarding in Islam. We also see in the biography of the Prophet (PBUH) that he was protected in wars and many bodyguards have been mentioned for him throughout history. Low identification of security in Islam can lead us to the right model for today's complex world.
