A COMPARATIVE STUDY BETWEEN CRIME AND PUNISHMENT DEFINED IN THE HOLY BOOKS OF RELIGIONS
Familiarity with the crimes and punishments defined in them can play an effective role in recognizing the benefits and legal challenges in different religions. The studies conducted show that there is a certain closeness between the crimes and punishments determined in the Holy Qur'an and the Old Testament, which are accepted by Jews and Christians. The fact is that the pattern of determining crime and punishment in the Avesta is far from the Old Testament and the Qur'an and cannot be compared. However, the similarities between the Qur'an and the Old Testament do not prevent us from ignoring the differences that exist in the field of proof of crime in the two religions of Islam and Judaism. These differences are particularly noteworthy in the two areas of matching the punishment with the crime and also the lack of acceptance of the principle of innocence in Judaism compared to Islam. In order to achieve such knowledge, it is necessary to review the crimes and punishments defined in the Qur'an, the Old Testament, and the Avesta and examine these methods.
