In three – last decades, one of the economic issues of Iran has been

consequences of deduction of money value, the theory of
compensating for the deduction of money value through indexing

economic reasons. Subsequently, annexing a note to article ١٠٨٢ of
civil law and granting bank interest by calculating rate of consuming
goods and services inflation has introduced according to law.
Considering analytical and contrastive method, the article, first,
evaluates Islamic jurisprudential and economic theory of
compensating for deduction of money value, then, practical problems,
come out of applying this theory in Iran's economy are disscused
here. This research article hypothesized that indexing would not be
an appropriate method to compensate for deduction of money value
because of practical and theoretical reasons.
