How the foundations of a system are viewed justifies its rules and differentiates it from other systems therefore Islamic ruling system is not an exception. Theological and ideological foundations and roots leading to formation and establishment of Islamic Republic of Iran are the same theological foundations of pure Islam and Ahlul Bayt's (a) school. Islamic Republic of Iran enjoys such foundations as divine epistemology and divine ontology, human studies, studies on God (monotheism), studies of religion (unity of religion and politics), studies on infallible Imams’ (a) as well as theory of welayate faqih. These issues are discussed in the field of theology. Fundamental characteristic of this revolution and ruling system and its distinction from other revolutions is its being ideological and Islamic as well as its unparalleled divine leadership.
