Influence of Sharia Norms on the Form of Implementation of State Power in Iraq
( Pp. 334-340)

Abstract: Тhe author of the article assesses the influence of the norms of Islamic ideology on the choice of standards of public administration and legal regulation of social relations in Iraq. The purpose of the study is the need to demonstrate the reality of such influence, as well as to show which state and legal institutions were affected by the prescriptions of Sharia and Islam in general. The main objective of the study is to analyze the use of aspects of religious ideology in constitutional and normative activities, as well as their consequences, provided that such use is based on the right of Iraqi citizens to determine the vector of the country's further development (democratic principle). The main conclusion of the study was that at the moment the norms of the Koran, the prescriptions of the Sharia, and other religious sources are actively used by the legislator only in cases where the regulatory regulation affects the properties of state symbolism and aesthetics. The remaining positions are perceived as an exception to the rule. Ultimately, the author comes to the conclusion that the eclecticism of combining the norms of secular law and religious provisions is permissible, and in the conditions of a clear differentiation of the spheres of legal regulation, it can determine the use of both as sources, however, this approach must be based on the principles directly accepted by society itself, and not imposed on it from the outside.
