The study of citizenship rights is necessary because this issue is promoted by Western countries and the Western view, while some of these countries trample on many of the citizenship rights of their nations, While the Islamic Revolution considers the origin of these rights to be Islam, in recent years, some Muslims have neglected this issue and have accepted Western schools as advocates of citizenship rights and have imitated them. For this purpose, this article seeks to examine the concept of citizenship rights in the three dimensions of Islam from the perspective of the Islamic Revolution and in contrast to the Western viewpoint. Therefore, this research seeks to answer the question of how citizenship rights derived from Islamic thought have been depicted in the view of the Islamic Revolution.

Abstract Religious democracy has emerged as a novel concept in the political and cultural space of our society and has presented itself as a political philosophy and a special and independent model of government, as opposed to political philosophies and alternative models of government, especially secularism and fundamentalism. The main claim of religious democracy in Iran is that without a purely materialistic view of customary, humanistic, individualistic and commercial principles; A popular government can be established, but based on religious values ​​and within the framework of divine commandments. In fact, the main point of the research is that so far no serious attempt has been made to compare the three types of alternative political systems (religious democracy, secularism and fundamentalism) in order to show their differences or possibly some similarities. In this article, using a descriptive-analytical method based on logical reasoning, we make a comparative comparison between religious democracy and secularism and fundamentalism in order to enumerate their differences and commonalities, components and indicators of democracy.
