1This article is a summary of a M.A.-thesis submitted in 1998 to the University of Hamburg. It studies the concept of iṣlāḥ in the thought and writings of ⁽Alī Šarī⁽atī, which as the author demonstrates well, should not be just simply understood as synonymous with “reform”, since this term is grounded in a deep rooted inner-islamic tradition. Iṣlāḥ in the understanding of Šarī⁽atī is therefore not identical with gradual changes in the administrative and social superstructure of a society, but an inherently Islamic institution that presents a means to promote regular and positive social change in an Islamic context that should be carried out by the rowšanfekrān.
