Abstract

Achieving the goal of new Islamic civilization requires a kind of theoretical synergy and also relying on the findings of existing research works. These works, despite their breadth, are faced with the harm of parallel work and sometimes confusion in the findings. With the aim of solving this problem and answering the question that "based on how new Islamic civilization is represented in written works after the Islamic revolution, what are the strategies to achieve it and what are the central core of these strategies?", seeking to extract an explanatory model among available findings.

In this way, we chose the Meta-Synthesis method and in the form of its steps, from 514 strategies extracted from 296 research works, into 52 categories and four meta-categories: "progress-oriented monotheistic software production", "enhancement of religious, native and revolutionary culture and its application at the level of governance and society", "reform of political structures and behaviors in the framework of regional religious democratic governments and aimed at Ummah-building" and "development of science and justice-oriented material life, aimed at promoting Spiritual", we achieved. By putting these four points together, the focal core of the theoretical model can be considered as "a theoretical and practical movement aimed at improving the material and spiritual life with the aim of realizing a virtuous life in the Islamic Ummah".
