A research on ways to control political violence from the perspective of Nahj al-Balagha

The importance of analyzing the situation of political violence in society as a component in evaluating the quality of governance has been the attention of scholars. Consequently, a meticulous examination of texts that are considered theoretical references in each culture can significantly contribute to the precise explanation of the ways in which violence can be controlled in accordance with the structure of each society. According to these points, the main goal of the current research was to answer this question: From the point of view of Nahj al-Balaghah, what are the possible ways to control political violence in the form of components related to the concept of relative deprivation and regulation of political violence? Our findings, which were obtained in the form of a descriptive-analytical method, indicate that the most significant approaches to control political violence, as viewed through the lens of Nahj al-Balaghah, include removing the sense of relative deprivation believably and objectively through the equal view of all members of the society, transparency in affairs, fairness, giving priority to demands and demands, paying attention to the needs of the people, the possibility of freedom of expression and staying away from destructive biases, continuous control of the actions and behavior of the military and law enforcement forces and avoiding any encroachment on the vital property of the people through the creation of rules in the path of creating order by the government in society
