The concept of intention in Criminal and Civil Laws and the relationship between them

Abstract

The determination of the criminal intention and the civil un-named intention, their relationship, explaining the concept of both notations, and the importance of intention in criminal law, which in turn determines the legal characterization of the crime, differs from the penalty of the unintended crime. Also determining the unnamed intention in civil law, and explaining that such a concept is not clear since the civil code did not stipulate such a theory despite the magnitude of the consequences that will occur. It is found that the unnamed intention has major importance in civil relations, however, the civil law did not give it importance, nor developed it as a theory, contrary to the criminal law which gave it great importance and the jurisprudence had dealt with it as one of the main theories in criminal law.
