Abstract
Honor killings are one of the social problems and one of the forms of severe violence against women in some cities of Iran, which has many psychological, cultural and social destructive effects. In this paper, the question is: “what is the approach of jurisprudence and criminal policy toward honor killings has been, what are the challenges and solutions to prevent it?”. This paper is descriptive and analytical, and the mentioned question has been investigated using the library method. The findings indicate that the type and amount of punishment for the perpetrators of honor killings that are accompanied by the mitigating excuse are the most important reasons for the increase in the occurrence of these murders. Therefore revision of these legal rulings and regulations can have a great impact in improving the way of dealing with honor killings and their killers. On the other hand, one of the important issues in the causes of this phenomenon is the culture of society. The culture of support for women and children in society must be strengthened through educational institutions such as schools and the media.
