One of the most prominent types of travelogue writing is the religious-religious travelogue. With the advent of the Arba'een Pilgrimage in recent years, we are witnessing the writing of travelogues that narrate this event. The present study examines the stylistic components of the Arbaeen travelogues as a literary genre. Among the ten Arbaeen travelogues, the travelogues "At the Order of My Mother", "Khase bi Saropa", "Derangi dar Najaf" and "Seyed Man Hosseini", which adhered to the principles of travelogue writing, were selected and examined in three levels: linguistic, literary and content. At the linguistic level, the most frequently extracted vocabulary was extracted, which shows that the vocabulary of the texts is in accordance with the discourse of the work. At the sentence level, the most important features of the works can be considered informal events, the use of verses and narrations, the use of passages from poetic texts and non-Persian propositions. The use of various forms of humor is the most important linguistic-literary component of the works. At the literary level, the most important literary industries are: simile, irony, discernment, and description. At the intellectual level, obvious components have been extracted in the field of politics, society and culture. The results of the research indicate that the collection of linguistic and literary tools and arrangements has been selected according to the dominant discourse of the work, ie the reflection of the Arbaeen sidewalk as a cultural, social, political and religious movement. https://gofteman.isri.ac.ir/article_213212.html This article tries to explain explanations and truth-telling. Has truth-telling had a fixed meaning in history, or has it evolved and become meaningful with a particular type of action in history? This article has tried to deal with truth-telling as a meaningful action in history with the method of cultural history. The method of cultural history itself is a kind of history whose subject is man as a constructor of meanings. Meanings that have become common among people and in a way inter-subjective. People live with this formed semantic system and organize all their actions and deeds with those meanings. This method works in a library method in data collection and in data analysis, it tries to discover the meaning of a concept in the context of its time by analyzing historical data. Truth-telling is an action in the context of history that has found meaning and ethnicity in accordance with its time. This genealogy begins in ancient Greece with the concept of Parrhesia. The concept of explanation in the eyes of the prophets and the level in the literature of mystics and truth-telling in Shiite hadithes is a continuation of the history of truth-telling. Throughout this history of truth-telling in the discourse of the Islamic Revolution, truth-telling turns from an individual virtue into a social task, but it does not remain in the task and moves towards jihad. Jihad is the explanation of a social task to fight in the war of narrations in order to overcome the truth over the conflicting narrations. https://gofteman.isri.ac.ir/article_213214.html Fame as a social phenomenon has been present in societies since the distant past.The emergence and expansion of mass media has led to the increasing role of fame in the social and cultural developments of the present era.This research tries to analyze the reputation with the method of discourse analysis from the perspective of the supreme leader of the revolution.The findings of the research indicate that the main signifier of this discourse is fame as social capital and other components such as the prohibition of the love of fame, the permissibility of expression and display, the condemnation of noise and controversy in order to be seen, the prohibition of being seen through representation. Vulgarity, the denial of visibility through false representation, fame as a dangerous situation, and the admiration of anonymity are other basic recognizable signifiers. https://gofteman.isri.ac.ir/article_213217.html The aim of this study is not to establish a correlation between the two scientific disciplines of aesthetics and the Islamic Revolution; rather, the author seeks to provide a methodical response to the question of the quality of constructing major aesthetic values and the possibility of revolutionary identity formation with an Islamic orientation. Research from the past two decades in Islamic aesthetics has been accompanied by a form of partial judgment in the dimensions of aesthetics and its presuppositions. Among the most significant consequences of such an approach are the conflation of natural beauty with artificial beauty, the definition of individual and personal boundaries of human beauty creation, and the negation of its macro and socio-political extension. Accepting beauty as an objective truth independent of humans, the author attempts, with a philosophical approach and a descriptive-analytical method, to justify another realm of beauty that is dependent on humans, validated by their desire and judgment, and has unlimited extensions in human life. This analysis is based on the separation of two domains of beauty: essential beauty and human-made beauty. Based on this axiom, it is possible to speak of the formation of macro-aesthetics in the realm of the Islamic Revolution in a civilizational horizon and to make statements about its nuances. https://gofteman.isri.ac.ir/article_216264.html The purpose of this article is to explain the strategic sources of soft power of the Islamic Revolution in the thought of Grand Ayatollah Imam Khamenei (the problem). The research findings indicate that His Highness considers faith and patience to be two important sources of soft power. Faith is a conscious, committed, and productive belief that is accompanied by action, and without these elements, faith cannot be formed. Patience also means strenuous and serious resistance to calamities and difficulties and reaching the peak of virtues to the point where a believer sees his defeat as certain but does not give up trying. Patience against sin is more important in this movement than other types of patience. (Conclusion). The article is organized using the method of implication explained in the knowledge of logic and the principles of jurisprudence (method). The analysis of two sources of soft power resources as strategic sources of soft power of the Islamic Revolution based on the thought of Saeb Rahbar-e-Khebir, the leader of the Islamic Revolution, is the innovation of the present article (innovation). https://gofteman.isri.ac.ir/article_216618.html This research analyzes the citations of Ayatollah Khamenei, the leader of the Islamic Revolution, to the verses of Surah Al-Hashr in his speeches. The main research question is: how does Ayatollah Khamenei use the verses of Surah Al-Hashr in his political speeches, and what types of speech acts does he extract from these verses? The hypothesis of the research is that Ayatollah Khamenei utilizes these verses to reinforce moral and political messages, and the speech acts are primarily declarative and exhortative in nature.The research method involves content analysis of Ayatollah Khamenei’s speeches, using Speech Act Theory to identify and analyze both direct and indirect speech acts. The selected verses include verses 18 and 19 (about piety and reflection on individual actions), verse 2 (the incident of expelling the Banu Nadir Jews), and verses 23 and 24 (divine characteristics).The findings indicate that the most frequent direct speech acts in Ayatollah Khamenei’s speeches are declarative and exhortative. In the case of indirect speech acts, the highest frequency is observed in exhortative and declarative acts. These results suggest that Ayatollah Khamenei uses these verses for moral guidance and to motivate his audience. Furthermore, the historical and social context of the speeches plays a crucial role in shaping their meaning and impact.This research demonstrates that the leader of the revolution utilizes religious sources to influence collective awareness and guide political and social messages. https://gofteman.isri.ac.ir/article_216935.html چکیدهاین مقاله به بررسی نقش محوری حوزه علمیه در شکل‌دهی و توسعه معرفت در زمینه سازی تمدن مهدوی با رویکردی تحلیلی و با تأکید ویژه بر اندیشه‌های حضرت آیت‌الله خامنه‌ای می‌پردازد. دو مضمون اصلی در این راستا شناسایی شده است: 1) نقش تبیینی حوزه: که شامل تبیین دقیق و جامع مفهوم مهدویت بر پایه منابع اصیل اسلامی، تبیین ابعاد مختلف تمدن مهدوی و جایگاه آن در تحولات تاریخی و تبیین نسبت مهدویت با سایر مفاهیم اسلامی و... است. 2) نقش پاسخگویانه حوزه: این مضمون به مسئولیت حوزه در پاسخگویی به شبهات و ابهامات پیرامون مهدویت، تصحیح انحرافات و برداشت‌های نادرست از آن و مقابله با جریان‌های انحرافی که از مفهوم مهدویت سوءاستفاده می‌کنند، می‌پردازد.در این تحلیل، اندیشه‌های آیت‌الله خامنه‌ای به عنوان یک مضمون فرامتن، نقش هدایت‌کننده و چارچوب‌بخش ایفا می‌کند. دیدگاه ایشان در مورد مهدویت به عنوان یک آرمان محوری و تعیین‌کننده در مسیر تحولات تاریخی، همچنین ضرورت آمادگی و زمینه‌سازی برای ظهور، مبنای تحلیل و تفسیر سایر مضامین قرار می‌گیرد. یافته‌های این تحلیل نشان می‌دهد که حوزه علمیه با ایفای نقشی فعال و پویا در سه حوزه آموزش، پژوهش و تبلیغ در دو محور (تبیینی، پاسخگویانه)، می‌تواند به طور موثری در شکل‌گیری و تحکیم پایه‌های معرفتی تمدن مهدوی گام بردارد. در نهایت، مقاله بر شناخت عرصه های مختلف نقش آفرینی حوزه علمیه در زمینه سازی تمدن مهدوی و ضرورت توسعه و تقویت ظرفیت‌های حوزه علمیه در حوزه معرفت افزایی، بصیرت بخشی، رصد آسیب ها و اقدام هوشمندانه متقابل تاکید می‌کند. https://gofteman.isri.ac.ir/article_216237.html In the era of digital transformation and the Fourth Industrial Revolution, artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as one of the world's most critical strategic technologies. By significantly impacting economic, social, and security domains, AI has reshaped the global power dynamics and become a vital factor in national development and international competitiveness. In the near future, AI is poised to play a pivotal role in national independence and self-sufficiency, akin to the role of nuclear energy. This study aims to investigate the macro-strategies of the Islamic Republic of Iran in developing its AI infrastructure, grounded in the intellectual framework of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution. The primary research question is: What strategies have been emphasized for developing the country's AI infrastructure, and what operational framework can be proposed for its implementation? This research employs a qualitative content analysis methodology with purposive sampling to examine the Supreme Leader's statements and relevant upstream documents pertaining to AI. Through a systematic analysis of these documents and strategic directives, this study identifies key priorities and challenges in Iran's AI development trajectory. The research hypothesis is that Iran's technological independence in AI necessitates substantial investment in research infrastructure, strengthening systematic connections between government institutions, universities, and the private sector, and developing indigenous AI capabilities while fostering international scientific collaboration https://gofteman.isri.ac.ir/article_216505.html The spiritual preservation of the families of Pasdaran (Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps) plays a pivotal role in strengthening the social and cultural foundations of society. This study aimed to design a model and measurement tool for assessing the spiritual preservation of the families of Pasdaran based on the Supreme Leader's ideological framework. Utilizing a qualitative research method and thematic analysis, data were first collected from the Supreme Leader's statements and expert interviews. Based on this data, a conceptual model of spiritual preservation was developed, and a measurement tool was devised. Using the method of qualitative research and thematic analysis, first, data was collected from the content of the Supreme Leader's statements. Then, based on the data analysis, 430 basic themes and 83 organizing themes were deduced from the content of the selected propositions, and a conceptual model of spiritual protection was designed. The findings revealed that the key components of spiritual preservation include religious foundations, ethics-centeredness, strengthening family relationships, and addressing cultural challenges. The proposed model outlines a process of identifying contextual factors, barriers, strategies, and outcomes of spiritual preservation. Additionally, the designed measurement tool demonstrated high validity and reliability. This study can significantly contribute to institutions involved in enhancing the spirituality of the families of Pasdaran. https://gofteman.isri.ac.ir/article_213218.html After the death of the Messenger of God (peace be upon him), including during his caliphate, Amir al-Mu'minin Ali (peace be upon him) sought to establish a civilization in which matters such as justice, peace, freedom, and movement towards the goal of creation were of greater importance, using the Holy Quran and the Sunnah of the Messenger of God (peace be upon him). In this regard, one of the most important topics in the life of the Commander of the Faithful (peace be upon him) is the factors of sedition and the strategies for confronting the seditionists' discourse; on the other hand, due to the commonality of human instincts and historical experiences, the possibility of this deviant discourse being realized in our time also exists, and given the knowledge and infallibility of that Imam, his strategies will be noteworthy. Some of the strategies for eliminating sedition are individual and some are social, and due to the realization of sedition in the context of society and the community-oriented nature of discourse, the study of social strategies has a special place. This research is organized with a library method and a descriptive-analytical approach and seeks to answer the question: What are the social strategies for confronting the discourse of seditionists from the perspective of Nahj al-Balagha? Distinguishing the true from the false by relying on the Quran and the progeny, standing firm against the seditionists by avoiding the spirit of majoritarianism, laziness, and boastfulness, and finally, jihad and determination in destroying seditions based on awareness and the priority of cultural struggle over military struggle will be among the social strategies for confronting the discourse of seditionists https://gofteman.isri.ac.ir/article_216616.html Abstract:Hope is one of the fundamental and practical concepts in advancing individual and social goals. Despite its apparent obviousness, hope has deep conceptual complexities that require careful examination. The present study aims to identify social strategies for creating hope and explores how hope is conceptualized and cultivated within the intellectual framework of the Supreme Leader. By utilizing a qualitative research method, this study collects and analyzes data through document review. The primary sources include the official website Khamenei.ir, as well as books, articles, and specialized software related to the subject.Through an in-depth analysis of the Supreme Leader's speeches and writings, five key strategies for fostering hope have been identified. These strategies include maintaining readiness, avoiding divisions and internal conflicts, modeling and following role models (with an emphasis on utilizing existing assets and capacities), and focusing on expectations. The research findings indicate that, throughout the history of the Islamic Revolution, despite persistent hostilities and numerous challenges, adherence to these strategies has played a crucial role in progress, continuity, and the realization of the revolution’s objectives—particularly the vision of establishing a new Islamic civilization.In this intellectual framework, hope is not merely an emotional or abstract concept but is defined through tangible elements such as trust, confidence, movement, and progress. Hope serves as a driving force in solving societal problems, overcoming obstacles, and achieving collective aspirations. By instilling a sense of optimism and determination, these strategies contribute to individual resilience and national advancement, ensuring that hope remains a central pillar in navigating challenges and shaping the future.
