The 1^st article discusses the motivations of the contemporary movement for the establishment of an Islamic society, some excellent examples of this movement, and its positive and negative dimensions. This article also examins some important challenges that this movement may face.

The 2^nd article attempts to clarify the way to strengthen the Islamic foundations of human sciences. According to this article, human sciences determine the direction of movement of individuals and societies. So, establishing these sciences on the Islamic concept of the universe is a campaign that will pave the way for the establishment of an Islamic civilization.
The 3^rd article critically examines the ideas and thoughts of sociologists who consider religion to be a social phenomenon. Rejecting this viewpoint, the article contains an explanation of the ideas of Allama Syed Muhammad Hussain Tabatabai, according to whom the man’s nature is built upon religion; and social environment is just a necessary condition for the manifestations of religion.
The 4^th article in this issue examines how the rules of language and expression, especially the rules of Arabic grammar and eloquence, are effective and involved in the affirmation and explanation of religious and Islamic beliefs from the basic textual sources. This article claims that the Shia Imamiyyah took special care to ensure that the general rules of Arabic grammar were fully adhered to in the expression and affirmation of religious beliefs. That is why Shia Imamiyyah were protected from personification of Allah almighty, his analogy, and quiddity etc.

The 5^th article in this issue examines the challenges and difficulties faced in the implementation of the “Educational Strategy-2015-2030” for the promotion of education in Gilgit-Baltistan.
