The article is trying to investigate the ideal society in the socio-political thought of Ibn Sina and Ibn Khaldun, based on Spriggan's model. Therefore, the research question has been formulated as follows: How did Ibn Sina and Ibn Khaldun think about the ideal society and how do they analyze the crisis of the political system and what ideal proposal do they offer to get rid of it? The present article, using a descriptive-analytical method and using library sources, has reached the report that Ibn Sina, in his attempt to connect politics and prophecy, considered the crisis to be the lack of centralized national power, which is the lack of prophetic policy and the lack of proper implementation of Sharia in has found In the design of the ideal society, he considered the best type of system to be a prophetic political system in which the Prophet or his successor is at the head of affairs. His ideal is the reconciliation between religion and philosophy, linking politics with Sharia and maintaining the unity of the Muslim society through the concentrated power of the philosopher-prophet. In fact, the plan of the ideal society in Ibn Sina's political-social thought is based on the divine nature of man and the maximum role of the state in the happiness and salvation of citizens in both worlds. While in Ibn Khaldoun's opinions, the formation and expansion of vast and powerful governments is related to the origin of religious principles and the role of religion and religion throughout the life of governments. He considers the state to be a fluid and perishable phenomenon that, like humans, has a natural lifespan from birth to death, and in this regard, in addition to tribal nervousness, religious nervousness can give stability to governments.

Max Weber's approach as a sociologist is classified in the category of sociological micro-approaches, and his explanation of various phenomena is an objective co-explanation. Paying attention to the individual and explaining based on considering the position of the individual in the society has shown itself even in the issue of the development of religion in the society. This article, which is written with the aim of understanding the criticisms obtained from the point of view of Morteza Motahari on Max Weber's views on the issue of the development of religion and is written in an exploratory, descriptive and critical method, has reached the considerations that religion is a phenomenon with The origin of atheism is not human or social, so that due to the changes and transformations of conditions and time, it needs to evolve and conform to the conditions. Comprehensiveness and compatibility of religion with reality are two basic elements for religion not needing substantive changes. Also, the nature of religion has not changed in the course of history so that religion needs to be completed. The elements of all divine religions are the same, and no change has been made in these elements, so as to create the suspicion of change, transformation and evolution in religion. The Qur'an's point of view regarding the development of religion is an integrated point of view. That is, from the beginning of the creation of the first man to the last creature, this religion has been accompanied by God Almighty with the aim of ensuring the happiness of the worldly and the afterlife life with man and human society, and since the goal is the same, religion has also been comprehensive of this goal from the beginning until now.

Attention to research in the field of religious studies has not only not gone through a declining trend, but we have witnessed the quantitative and qualitative growth of this researches, especially the research about the types, amount and changes of religiosity in recent decades. Among these, one of the most fundamental challenges in the field of religious studies is the design of indigenous indicators that are appropriate to the cultural, historical and social contexts. Although in Iran, in the last two decades, fruitful efforts have been made in this field; But still, the designed indicators have not been able to gain general acceptance and application. On the other hand, religion and consequently religiosity can be classified and studied in three cognitive/ epistemic, emotional or behavioral dimensions. In the studies that have presented the scale about religiosity, the effort to present the scale in all three dimensions has reduced the accuracy and detailed discussion in each of these mentioned dimensions. Therefore, the need to pay more detail about each of these dimensions in the topics related to religiosity is felt. so, the aim of this article is to provide Indigenous indicators with an emphasis on the epistemic dimension of religiosity. In this research, first through theoretical studies, 81 indicators were calculated to measure religiosity and were evaluated during twenty exploratory interviews. Then, 23 components under 6 more frequent and more important axes were identified, which can be used as an indicator to measure epistemic religiosity in different statistical societies. These components are: "attitude towards religion", "expectation from religion", "epistemic foundations", "anthropological foundations", "meaning and purpose of life", "man's understanding of ethical foundations".

In the Ghazali's works, there are thoughts about women that contradict the tradition of the Prophet (PBUH) and his practice. A closer examination of his views on women reveals the cultural view of the society in which Ghazali lived. It seems that some of Ghazali's views were influenced by Jaheli culture and changes in Islamic society after the death of the Prophet (PBUH). The presence of orders such as consulting with women and acting contrary to it or women being created from crooked ribs, locking women at home and depriving them of education, placing women in the ranks of servants and slaves, and emphasizing the function of women bearing children are the topics emphasized in the thoughts of It is a ghazali that is directly related to the cultural changes of the Islamic society after the death of the Prophet (PBUH).

Social knowledge, which was formed in the Islamic era and is known as practical wisdom in an important part, is a system of knowledge that provides special laws, theories and concepts for social knowledge. Knowing these elements can be the way to understand the language of this knowledge. Among these theories, there are many interpretations of the original under the title of "composition" which has been interpreted with different theories. Composition as a metaphysical principle has the ability to interpret various natural and unnatural components and elements. An example of these composition is formed in the human world under the title of society. In this regard, with an analytical-historical view, we have reread the formation process of various interpretations of the theory of composition regarding social reality, and finally, an innovative point of view in explaining what society is by using the united composition of matter and form in theoretical wisdom and the concrete composition of matter and form in The strategy is presented. As a result, its concrete combination will be an interpretation of the principle of composition, which is responsible for explaining the identity of the society. Finally, the general system that can express the concepts and ideas of social sciences of the Islamic period will be the practical strategy of that period.

The fundamental issues of a knowledge are often answered and explained in the philosophy of that knowledge. The question of what society is is also a question that the philosophy of social sciences is responsible for answering. Throughout history, many scientists have searched for a suitable answer to this question, but they did not find much success or agreement. Qur'anic thinkers took two important approaches to find out what society is: First, it was an abstract approach, which abstracted the society mentioned in the Holy Qur'an, mabah al-ashtrak, and made it the definition of society. Culture, government, purpose and geography are some of these commonalities. The second approach is to use the corresponding words in the Holy Quran. The Qur'an has used words such as Qom, Nas, Anas, Tribe, Tribe, Clan, Branch, Village and Ummah for communities, which can be understood by referring to its characteristics. The following article, while expressing, examining and measuring the definitions of society from the perspective of Quranic thinkers, seeks to find the definition of society from the perspective of the Holy Quran. According to the teachings of the Holy Qur'an, the common law that forms the society is the social province. Social province is a province that expresses the relationship and connection of people based on motivating beliefs and actions in accordance with the beliefs, which results from the love between people and causes them to dominate each other and obey each other. The present article, which was written with a documentary method and a descriptive analytical approach and an inferential interpretation method, in explaining the nature of society believes that first of all, the Qur'an mentions the nature of society as spiritual and not dependent on geography, tribe, race and language. Dand, and secondly, from the perspective of the Holy Qur'an, society refers to a group of people who have a social guardianship over each other based on insight - motivating beliefs - and actions in accordance with faith or disbelief.
