In this book, jurisprudential rules, including the rules of political fiqh, are considered general rulings that are applicable to more than one chapter of fiqh but are more specific than the topics of usul al-fiqh (principles of jurisprudence).

He calls expediency the most prominent political element in Imam Khomeini's thought, which has even distinguished his political thought from other jurisprudential and political thoughts.
