This study has aimed to deal with evidence of proof in administrative judiciary and the substantive role of a judge in proof and the distribution of the burden of proof and is a comparative study between the Iraqi legal system and Islamic law, as these evidence represent the key to reaching the judicial truth and the truth is not achieved without it and it is the only evidence that in the administrative judiciary, shows the essence of the truth if it is judicially proven.
Therefore, it is necessary for us to answer the question :what are the evidences of proof in the administrative judiciary? What is the substantive role of the judge in proof and the distribution of the burden of proof in the law and in Islamic Sharia? This results from the important position that these evidence and methods have in the administrative judiciary, as it has been limited by the Iraqi law in No. 107 of 1979 in part two with 8 methods and evidences including personal (written evidence), objective (such as testimony), and others related to the authority of the judge (investigation ), while Islamic Sharia agrees with some of what the law affirms such as (acknowledgment) and disagrees with some of them such as (scriptural evidence). Islamic Sharia adopts new evidence such as (the knowledge of the judge). These methods and evidences were discussed in law and views of judicial scholars and we explained the views of the other four schools of thought and showed the substantive and positive role of the judge drawn by the law according to the mixed doctrine of proof in Iraq. The study has been written in four chapters which include detail, comparison and analysis according to the true sources and references.
The study found results that include the most prominent findings and recommendations including the comprehensiveness of Islamic law. It has a counterpart in Islamic jurisprudence, but their issues have not been complete and the texts of Sharia changed. The most prominent recommendation is that a new law of proof should be drafted to comply with Islamic law, and legal and religious libraries, personal interviews and websites should be used to provide these sources.
