The Concept and Theological Proofs of the Components of "Establishment of Religion" and "Sovereignty of Religion" in Ayatollah Khamenei's Theology

The purpose of the study, with a descriptive-analytical method based on library documents, lies in explaining and proving the concept of two components of Ayatollah Khamenei`s theology including: "establishment of religion" and "rule of religion" as two parts of Islamic religion. The findings of the research show that "establishing religion", that is, practicing it in all aspects of life, is one of the components of Islam. The sum of "sciences and rules" and their "external realization" form the religion of Islam, and Islam insists on establishing all the components of the religion and is not satisfied with the realization of some parts of them. "Sovereignty of religion" is also one of the components of Islam. Islam has both "jurisdictional general sovereignty" which means the inclusion of its systematic rulings on all aspects of human life, and it also has "objective general sovereignty" over society, which is manifested in the social political sovereignty of Islam
