'''Mohammad Mahdi Shams al-Din''' (1353-1421 AH) was a Shia jurist who wrote various jurisprudential works on the political system in Islam, women's issues, and hoarding. He believed that the evidence for the [[Theory of Wilayat al-Faqih|Guardianship of the Jurist]] was inconclusive, that there was no proof for the complete political deputyship of the jurist from the Infallible Imam, and that in this regard, one must suffice with the certain extent (qadr al-mutayaqqan). Based on this, the administration of government in an Islamic society, while observing the general principles of religion, is the responsibility of the people.

He also, relying on the prohibition of changing creation in [[Quran 4:119]], argued for the primary prohibition of [[human cloning]]. He considered the distance of Shia jurisprudence from Maqasidi jurisprudence not to be due to jurisprudential or creedal reasons, but rather due to the Shiites' distance from governance. He also interpreted the [[guardianship of men over women]] in [[Quran 4:34]] as relating only to the marital relationship and only in the case where the man financially provides for the woman.
