The tension and conflict between political units in various domestic, national, regional and global scales has precedents throughout human life and has always been observed throughout human history. The need to more control and monitor war has led to the development of a concept called just war. Like most of the divine religions, the religion of Islam has also dealt with the concept of just war, but the analysis of this issue from the perspective of Islam and especially the Holy Quran has received less attention from researchers. This article deals with the most important examples of just war in Holy Quran. The main research question is "What are the examples of just war in the Holy Quran?". This article discusses that Islam has developed principles for a just war that can be examined in three domains (before, during and after the war) and eighteen conditions and examples of these domains and their conditions can be seen in various verses of the Holy Quran. It is hoped that the discovery, identification and development of these principles can provide the basis for controlling and monitoring violent behavior and especially war by humans.

The political organization of space has been used as a framework and platform for land administration since long ago by various societies, from primitive societies to empires and today’s modern governments. The present research is practical in terms of purpose and qualitative in terms of methodology. Data collecting was done through in-depth interviews and focus groups, and data analysis was done through discourse analysis. The study results showed that, firstly, the formation of unrealistic bureaucracy, weakness of budgeting system, weakness of participatory system, homogenization of geographical space, inefficient management system, one-way flow of ruling from top to bottom, weakness of discourse of justification and propaganda, and taking advantage of the in creasing requests for promotion in political compttitions have damaged the political organization of the current space and caused the inefficiency of the national divisions system. And secondly, "type of ruling ideology", "contradiction between the political spatial structure of the country and historical-social realities" and "indecisiveness in the use of an authoritarian and democratic approach" were identified as the ideological indecisiveness of this discourse.

Elections are one of the indicators of political development and show the role of people in the government. Election geography is also a subset of political geography that examines the geographical aspects of elections. The present research has considered the results of the 6th to 11th period of the Islamic consultative assembly elections in 6 constituencies of Tehran province with the descriptive-analytical method and data gathering based on library and internet methods and using tools such as maps, tables, and diagrams, to examine the performance of the two main political factions of the country as well as the independent representatives in each of the constituencies of this province and determine the influence of these factions in the considered constituencies. The results of the research show that despite the relative superiority of the fundamentalism faction in Tehran province, none of the political factions have had a stable victory and the orientation of the majority of constituencies in this province has been fluid. On the other hand, the research statistics show that the more increase in the participation rate, the more seats have been had by reformers in the Islamic consultative assembly. In this condition, the participation rate has decreased in the next period. Obtained patterns in this article can be used for concentration and party activities in particular aspects and saving unnecessary costs. This article also can be used in academic and research centers.
