| Abstract:
One of the notable innovations in the Islamic Penal Code Adopted in 2014 concerns its attention to ‘ Interference of Crimes’ which is known as the ‘ Interference of Reasons’ under Islamic Jurisprudence denoting different and various intentional crimes perpetrated with a single or multiple strikes by the criminal to the victim. The mentioned law, over the 2nd chapter of the Book of lex talionis (Qisas), elaborates the issue of ‘ Interference of Crimes’ aiming to obviate the legal vacuum. Although in the occurrence of crimes the main prevalent principle is non-interference of reasons but, in some specific cases the interference of reasons has been accepted as such that whenever multiple crimes are perpetrated by the criminal against the victim through a single strike, interference of reasons has happened, when various crimes occur through various strikes and the interference of reasons happens if the strikes are done consecutively; otherwise, no interference of reasons is envisaged.
