Hence, the review of the Constitution is often different and more complex than ordinary law. A fundamental review is the change in a number of fundamental values ​​and underlying principles in the Constitution. In the present article, in answer to this question, which is the basics of the fundamental review of the Constitution, especially with emphasis on the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran, the authors have studied and analyzed the subject using the descriptive-analytical research method. From the author’s point of view, excluding some issues from the Constitutional review is critical. According to the writers of the main legislator of Iran, the development of fundamental principles, especially the foundations of faith, the goals of the Islamic Republic, the republicans of the State and some other constraints, by accepting that the principle of the political system based on religious democracy must be respected and safeguarded by the reviewing authority, is extreme.
