For this purpose, the Islamic Republic of Iran Constitution, in principle, sets out a mechanism for revision in Article 177 that is significant in terms of the role of the people in this process. The motivation for writing the upcoming paper was to answer the question: What capacities have the constitution of the Islamic Republic for the role of people in the Constitutional Review Initiation?

However, in this paper, in a descriptive and analytical way, examining the fundamentals of people's participation in the revision initiative, from the perspective of the fundamental rights set iv the constitution, which implies the sovereignty of the people, as well as the reflection of the basic legislative and loyalties of the present constitution, To strengthen the role of the people in the Constitutional Review and loyalty to the current constitution, steps have been taken to strengthen the role of the people in the Constitutional Review Initiative by parliamentarians or presidents.
