Abstract
Corruption on earth is one of the concepts of disagreement and its explanation is very important in cyberspace. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the concept and instances of Corruption on Earth in jurisprudence and criminal law. The present article is descriptive-analytical, and using library method, the mentioned question has been investigated.  The findings indicate that in jurisprudence, Corruption on Earth has not been addressed in a specific headline and mainly in the discussion about Moharebeh is referred to. There is disagreement among jurists on this issue: some have considered it a dependent crime under Moharebeh, and others considered it an independent crime. The second approach is accepted in the Islamic Penal Code of 2013. In Imamiyya jurisprudence, cases such as burning down another house, murdering non-Muslims, and shrouding are known as cases of Corruption on Earth. In Sunni religions, much less is considered as Corruption on Earth and jurists consider the Islamic ruler to determine its examples. Promoting corruption in the community can be done more easily than ever before through a vast virtual space. So there is a possibility of corruption on earth in cyberspace.
