Abstract

This article, after examining the views and theories of western and Muslim scholars we have comparative discussion and comparison around the two types of good governance in the West and transcendent governance in Islam. In the present world and in passing bad governance to favorable governance which is the Ideal situation and idealistic the whole world is global, and that governance should be of what kind of person or group and what the personal and ideological characteristics of the statesman or governors should be, the main issue is the circles of governance. Characteristics and major components of governances in their desirability and gaining people satisfaction from the most important issues in governance and to achieve the perfection and prosperity of individuals and communities. In the meantime, however, most Western theories of justice and talked about other traits and characteristics of good governance that are also sought by Islam, but their main approach was toward the material and temporal perfection of mankind and that's because of their human-centered tendency. On the other hand, Islam with a god-centered attitude, introduces the happiness of the hereafter as the purpose of the creation of human beings and societies. Accordingly, because the purpose of the creation of the world, human beings, societies and the formation of governments is to achieve eternal bliss, therefore, the characteristics of the best kind of governance are revealed and people's compliance with such governments is essential.
