Abstract
In the present study which has been carried out in a descriptive and analytical way, it is proposed that though Islamic Criminal Law, approved in 1392, contains a lot of changes and innovations, we cannot ignore some faults in some of its articles. One of these articles is article 137 regarding crime recidivism in Ta`zirat crimes. In the first glance, this issue may doesn't become bold, but after attention and delicacy and referring to article 137, we can point out that not correcting this fault can lead to quandary and variance of opinions. What the authors are following in the present study is to investigate Ta`zirat punishments regarding deprivation of social rights of the sentenced which if a person after the date of definity of arbitrate until political rehabilitation commits a crime, the laws of crime recidivism will be applied to him/ her.
