'''Foundations of Islamic Political Thought''' is a book by [[Abbasali Amid Zanjani]] in the field of [[Political Fiqh]]. This book was authored with an emphasis on the ijtihadi method and the use of Islamic sources. The author considers the understanding of Islamic political thought to require both descriptive and normative analyses, and rejecting empirical positivism, he emphasizes its difference from political behavior and political philosophy. In his view, the Quran provides both types of analysis, descriptive and normative, and Shia jurists have played a significant role in its normative stages.

The author considers the inseparability of religion and politics to be the foundation of Islamic thought and, while critiquing six views on the [[separation of religion and politics]], emphasizes the political objectives of religion and the role of prophets in establishing divine sovereignty. Zanjani bases the political philosophy of Islam on the axis of Imamate and calls the separation of Imamate from the caliphate a dangerous deviation.
