Abstract

International treaties have emerged since time immemorial to regulate international relations between States containing the rules agreed upon by the parties Through those rules, such relations are regulated, and their provisions and mutual obligations are set out among the parties, based on the lofty objective of international treaties, today it has become one of the most important sources of public international law and plays an important role in maintaining the unity and organization of the international community and managing the emerging relations among its members, in order to preserve the importance attached to international treaties. Through this research, the study aimed to show something no less important than the conclusion of treaties and how those international treaties expired compared to those in Islam and general international law. As we know, the expiration of international treaties is intended to terminate their provisions and their disappearance from the regime by which the parties agreed to them. It is worth mentioning that the reasons that lead to this lapse have varied somewhat, between what we see as the reasons for the expiration of treaties in Islam and what we see in general international law, and the differences in those reasons undoubtedly lead to the different effects to which they reply.
