The nature and existence of society and the characteristics of an ideal society in the thought of Ayatollah Khamenei

The nature and existence of society is one of the important topics that have been presented with different views. The way of looking at this issue is an important basis for political, social, cultural and economic decisions. Among the Muslim thinkers, Ayatollah Khamenei is a thinker who based on verses and traditions and according to the historical experiences of different societies and field data, has presented a special point of view about this issue. The problem of the research is to clarify the various dimensions of his thought about the nature and existence of society and the characteristics of an ideal society. To answer this question, the content analysis method was used and all intellectual works of the leadership were examined. By inferring from the collected materials, it can be said that Ayatollah Khamenei sees society as a living body that has life and death and undergoes evolution and decline. Society is a complex and true existence, which is created and affects the will of individuals, but the will of man is the final determinant that creates society and is affected by its creation.
