<![CDATA[The objective of this work is to expound upon Shiite philosophy and constitutional theory by drawing upon the views and ideology of Imam Khomeini. In addition, this research endeavours to compare the constitutional ideas of Shiite and Sunni factions. This study employs the methodology of literature review. Several primary and secondary sources pertaining to the research objectives were thoroughly reviewed, analysed, and compared. The study's findings indicate that within Shiite ideology, the power and control over authority are exclusively attributed to God. Allah is the ultimate arbiter of all natural phenomena and every entity within it. God possesses supreme authority, possesses dominion, and bestows legislation.
