Abstract

The bill "Preventing women's injuries and improving their security against abuse" which was previously referred to the Social Commission of the Islamic Council under the title of "Ensuring women's security against violence" bill; It was approved in the 20th meeting of April 1402. Undoubtedly, this bill is a positive approach towards the realization of the violated rights of women, because by revising the original version and modifying the word violence to "mistreatment", it caused spiritual damages to be taken into consideration in addition to physical damages. However, since "abuse" is a vague and floating term, not only is it not defined precisely in the bill, but also some examples of abuse, which refer to women's moral rights, have not been identified and criminalized, and this has caused preventive and protective measures. The subject of this bill does not include all traumatic situations. With this article, we are trying to identify new forms of misbehavior and evaluate the protective and preventive role that is neglected in this bill according to experts. In this article, which is written in descriptive and analytical method, new examples of misbehavior based on moral damages have been identified and the support methods specified in the bill have been criticized.
