The present research aims to reach a comprehensive understanding and total attitude to Islamic thought of political freedom. A descriptive-analytical research method is used. The results show that all internal and external realms of political freedom are considered in Islamic thought of politic and it emphasized that if a man is entangled by temptation, he will not experience political freedom fully and will be entangled by power and wealth. Being spelled by these two, he ignores this divine gift, serves for the tyrants, and obeys them as well. If there is justice in a society, freedom will be there as well. All justice leads to freedom but not all freedom leads to justice.
