Popis: Anfal” and natural resources are viewed as significant sources of financial resources that Holly Shariah assigns their ownership to the Islamic state to pursue the public goals. On this topic, policy-making for management of these resources, and control of their depletion is of paramount importance whereas appropriate policies in natural resource management and Anfal can lead to sustainable development and intergenerational interests. In this paper we introduce principles and policies for utilization of Anfal resources. After addressing the ideas of Islamic jurists (Foghaha), we select the theory and definition of Imam Khomeini about Anfal as a basis for analysis and consequent reviewing of Hadith and historical issues on Anfal, we conclude that Muslem´s interests (Maslehat) and society’s benefit is the main criteria for utilizing Anfal. Finally, according to the duties of Islamic government, we introduce a policy prescription for allocation of revenues from Anfal in the areas such as Justice, Economic Infrastructures, Human Development and Necessities. As a result we can assert that given a successful management of Anfal and natural resources, Islamic government can pursue many essential goals of society.
