Abstract
The aim of the present research is to identify the effective components of criticizing the authorities’ words and performance based on justice in Islamic lifestyle from the viewpoint of Quran and religious quotes. The current study has been conducted upon inductive analysis with a coding system through documentation method. According to the findings, four main categories including ration-orientation, justice-orientation, ethics-orientation, and gentry-orientation were determined to encompass eleven components as the most important ones in criticizing the words and performance, including awareness, righteousness, politeness in fair criticism, criticizing based on wisdom, avoiding precipitancy, loss of exception in criticism, criticizing oneself before others, being neutral in criticism, reinforcing the criticized individual’s character via constructive criticism, and indirect criticism. Apparently, consideration of these components by critics and those in charge of correcting the authorities’ performance will cut down on the challenges and damages with which justice-based criticism may confront.
