Typology and source finding of "soft power" based on content analysis of verses of the Holy Quran

One of the necessities of Islam in the face of new issues is to ask questions of the Holy Quran, but before that it is necessary to pay attention to the appropriate and efficient research method to discover and identify verses related to that issue. An essential step in intermediate research for change in the field of Islamic sciences is to pay attention to the issue of research methods in the Holy Quran. Among the new theories proposed in the modern age is the issue of "soft power". Although this theory was first proposed by Western thinkers, what is the view of the Holy Qur'an on the subject of soft power? In this article, we have tried to analyze the themes extracted from Quranic verses with interdisciplinary approach and using the method of qualitative content analysis, and to identify the types of soft power and its sources. The research findings show that in the Holy Quran, two types of powers of the right and wrong front are mentioned and in order to gain soft power, four sources of divine sovereignty, divine honor, divine ownership and divine power have been introduced.
