The constitution determines the ruling system. It marks where power should be concentrated, how the relationship between this ruling power and the freedoms and rights of the people of the nation is, and the scale of power and responsibility of the leaders, including the executive branch, legislative branch, and the judicial branch, towards the nation. The nation's rights are a pivotal discussion amongst political systems which is emphasized in the constitutions of various political systems. Various countries in the world try to make this the frontispiece and brightest chapter of their constitution. This research deals with the bases of national rights in the constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran and how they were formed. One of the essential constitutional discussions is the rights of individuals and the limitations of presidential power. This is given the title of 'human rights,' 'foundation alights and freedoms or 'the rights and duties of the government and individuals.' These rights have been described in accordance to individualism and socialism. The constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran, distancing itself from fanaticism, is not similar to western governments before the Renaissance, where the rights of individuals were completely overlooked, and not similar to what came after the Renaissance, where divine rights were erased from the society. The foundations of this article are the rights and freedoms that the third chapter of the constitution stipulated.

What was seemed to be important after the ratification of the principle was its enforcement in spite of the resistances of that time. Reviewing the conditions and circumstances led to ratification of the principle, this paper examines three methods for its enforcement during three periods of the parliament, with respect to historical evidences, and concludes that the principle has been entirely performed, once at least in the second period of parliament.

Undoubtedly, security could be regarded as power, including different kinds, the most important of which is "economic security". As it has been always declared by Islamic scholars, among other kinds of security, economic security is one the outstanding securities of every society which affects the identity of society and other types of security as well. According to them, "economic crisis" is the opposite side of economic security, which is rooted in "economic domination" of every enemy of Islamic society with the aim of misleading Islamic revolution. Thus, they encourage their followers to make an attempt in order to prevent the crisis and develop security. From the viewpoint of leading Muslim scholars, elements of economic security include: natural resources and raw materials, technical knowledge and financial policies. As for natural resources and raw materials, they believe that economic development depends on fresh air, abundant whole some water, and fertile land, and that to initiate any action requires its "particular knowledge" and that none of these could be completed, except through an "economic plan" in financial issues.
