Taking into account the standpoints of the modern worldview, most of sociologists have tried to formulize their own understanding of social world and human action. Pierre Bourdieu, as one of the most influential cultural sociologists, claims that, using a specific analytic model and formula, it is possible to reveal the complexity of the objective and subjective logic contained in the social actors’ life style. Using the theory of Fetrat developed by martyr Motahhari and applying documentary research method, this article tries to explore the most important challenges of the Bourdieu’s claim versus Fetrat and faithful life. Due to adherence to perspectivism, Bourdieu’s model results in relativism with regard to some elements including culture, ethic, and many social factors such as gender. Moreover, the society and social class have been supposed to take precedence over human Fetrat and genuine identity. In addition, owing to adoption of the profit logic, one cannot find such concepts as simple living, contentment, self-respect, the real self, the border between truth and falsehood, and the freedom along with responsibility.
