One of the central issues of progress model relates to area of politics; political jurisprudence claims it can resolve many of problems in this field. In the Islamic Republic of Iran Regime model, political jurisprudence should be made possible to undergo further consideration because it is arena of newly emerged issues and events. Jurisprudential inferences overseeing political action can help determine situation of a Muslim individual in political life. This, on one hand, necessitates explication of indexes of Iranian-Islamic model of progress. The present article has postulated the indexes concerned by the supreme leader of the Islamic revolution in order to standardize the religious necessities of political life in the international and internal areas. On the other hand, it has paid attention to capacities of political jurisprudence in order to provide necessary tenets for directionality of the subject model. The article has hypothesized that the Shiite political jurisprudence has the ability to present religious necessities pertinent to political life based on the Iranian-Islamic model of progress. To confirm this, analytic-descriptive methodology has been applied. As a result, in addition to “tradition-centered” ijtihad, “intellect-centered ijtihad shall be emphasized and individual-centered jurisprudence shall be transitioned to society-centered jurisprudence.
