Abstract

From Allameh Motahhari's perspective, the institution of religious propagation is of great importance, as religious propagators serve as intermediaries between the people and the central authority of the clergy on social and cultural levels. This study seeks to answer a crucial question: what ethical principles should the institution of religious propagation follow to properly fulfill its intermediary role? Among contemporary religious scholars, Motahhari stands out as one of the most concerned about the challenges faced by the clergy and religious propagation. Therefore, examining his insights into the potential issues and concerns regarding this field is both helpful and significant. This study is organized to analyze Motahhari's discourse to address the above question. Through content analysis of his works, particularly Collected Works and Notes, four main categories of ethical principles were identified: personal and individual ethics, economic interactions, governmental relations, and social-cultural interactions.
