Content Analysis of the Educational Thought of the Leaders of the Islamic Revolution with a Focus on "Qiyam Lillah" (Uprising for the Sake of God)

The present study aims to analyze the educational thought of the leaders of the revolution, focusing on "Qiyam Lillah" (Uprising for the Sake of God). This is a qualitative study utilizing content analysis as its method. Eight main categories surrounding "Qiyam Lillah" were identified, along with their associated concepts. These categories include the concept and essence of "Qiyam Lillah" (feeling responsible, defending the truth, etc.), the importance of "Qiyam Lillah" (the only divine exhortation, the main factor, and the spirit of the Islamic Revolution’s miracle, etc.), types of "Qiyam Lillah" (individual uprising and collective uprising), goals of "Qiyam Lillah" (removing danger from the religion of God, establishing justice, annihilating disbelief, etc.), outcomes and achievements of "Qiyam Lillah" (certain victory, fearlessness, diminishing the significance of shortages, etc.), requirements of "Qiyam Lillah" (self-monitoring and self-purification, hopefulness, and perseverance, etc.), signs of "Qiyam Lillah" (readiness to sacrifice, instilling fear in the enemy’s heart, etc.), and examples of "Qiyam Lillah" (the 19th of Dey Uprising, the Islamic Revolution, etc.). Ultimately, by summarizing the obtained concepts, a conceptual definition of "Qiyam Lillah" was provided, and its application in educational goal-setting and assessment was examined. Based on the research findings, the essence and concept of "Qiyam Lillah" from the perspective of the leaders of the revolution can be defined as follows: "It is an action undertaken by individuals who, due to a sense of responsibility, rise to defend the truth, relying on divine power and confronting external and internal tyrants and demons. This act itself leads to awakening from negligence and embarking on the first step of the journey toward God."
