Misuse of right rule is manipulated in many legal issues from adjacent lands relations to law of contracts and family law. Fraud on the law such as intentional change in dependency’s elements and as a specific use of misuse of right’s general theory has been presented as one of the obstacles in implementing foreign law in private international. Using the conflict settlement rule with the aim of escaping from the competent law fraudulently by one of the litigants suffices to create fraud on law in private international law. There are discussions in Islamic jurisprudence under the title of Hial Al-Riba as well that is notably compatible with the concept of fraud on law in western culture in terms of their foundations. Both religious tricks and fraud on law are obstacles in implementation of foreign law in Islamic jurisprudence and Iranian written law that is based on “no harm” rule and “unlawful direction” theory. This article, applying descriptive-analytic method, after examining the foundations of these two concepts, has dealt with their comparison in terms of religious tricks and finally has concluded that in jurisprudential system, religious tricks cannot be accepted unless in explicit cases and by a narrow interpretation. Furthermore, Iranian law has expressly opposed fraud on law that implies the negative view of the legislator toward fraud on law in such a way that from all of them a general rule namely preventing fraud on law rule can be derived.

Although both Islamic jurisprudence and international sources have recognized certain rights for refugees, the concept of asylum and definition of refugee in Islam differ from those of international instruments. Phenomenon of asylum, analogous to having a broad range in terms of history and legal development in international law, has been accepted and possess a specific and distinguished position in Islam as well so that from the beginning of the establishment of Islamic state and even prior to advent of Islam, the tradition of asylum and protection of refugees had existed and have had a religious form. Asylum is called Amān in Islamic jurisprudence. Being universal and toward the humanity as a whole, the view of Islam regarding rights of refugees is not a religious and exclusive one. Asylum entered into international treaties through the conclusion of the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees. Under international law, asylum is substantially of a recommendatory nature and has no strong guarantee along with an international mechanism. More or less, he rights and duties of refugees in Islam and international law are similar and due to the fact that Amān is a contract, the Islamic state can, subject to not being contrary to prudence and divine law, accept the other conditions and rights of refugees as provisos. The present article, through an analytic method, aims at studying the rights of refugees in accordance to Islamic sources and international law comparatively.
