Khomeini's 8-article command (Persian: فرمان هشت ماده‌ای خمینی), is an issued 8-article command by Iran's Supreme leader,[1][2][3][4] Seyyed Ruhollah Khomeini;[5][6][7] addressing to Judicial system of Iran and executive organizations of the country, on 15 December 1982—in order to make the laws based on Islam's orders.[8]

This command[9][10][11][12] is considered among the known works of Seyyed Ruhollah Khamenei[13][14][15][16] in the field(s) of "private rights", "human rights" and "civil rights" versus "government and power". This 8-article command is also known as "Manshur-e Keramet-e Ensan" ("Charter of Human Dignity"), and emphasizes all items in respecting the rights of people and observance of legal rules in dealing with Sharia-civil rights.[17]
