Accurate understanding of the extent and scope of the relationship between Shi‘a jurisprudence (Fiqh) and the concept of governance can open new pathways for jurists and related institutions in addressing practical and executive challenges. This study aims to clarify the relationship between Fiqh and governance by focusing on analyzing the nature and mission of Fiqh, explaining different approaches, and identifying appropriate methodological frameworks in this regard. The main issue is how Shi‘a jurisprudence, through its inherent capacities, can exert maximal influence in three fundamental arenas of governance: policymaking, regulatory oversight, and facilitation. Theoretical analysis and documentary review indicate that Shi‘a Fiqh not only derives rulings for the individual and social obligations of the faithful but also plays an active role in the structures and processes of governance, possessing the ability to guide governmental affairs and manage the complex issues of society. These capacities elevate Shi‘a jurisprudence  beyond merely individual and social rulings, presenting it as an effective governance-oriented jurisprudence. The scope and potential of Shi‘a Fiqh demonstrate that it possesses the ability to guide governmental affairs, address executive challenges, and provide innovative solutions in policymaking. Accordingly, it can be regarded as both a scientific and practical framework for governance.
