In This Article, Using the Analytical-Deductive Research Method, we Have Integrated the Concept of “Intimacy” in the Thought of Family studies Scientists, the Concept of “Transactional Communication” from the Viewpoint of Communication Scholars and the Knowledge about “Family” Derived from Quranic & Hadith Teachings. In The Beginning, from the “Transactional Communication” Approach -which is one of the most Comprehensive Approach in the Study of “Human Communication” - the Concept of “Intimacy” has been Described as the Main Characteristic of “Family Communication”. Then “Transaction of Intimacy” as a Process and Establishing the Spirit of Intimacy in “Family Communication” as a Result have been Explained Accordingly. Then the Relation of this Concept with the “Mawaddah” as a Quranic Concept has been Analyzed and the Effectiveness of Family Communication in the Light of “Transaction of Intimacy” and “Transaction of Mawaddah” has been proved. Then, the Solution to the Effectiveness of Communication in Society, has known the Extension of these two Characteristics of “Family Communication” to other “Social Communication” and the Formation of an “Islamic Extended Family”. Then with the help of the Qur'anic Verses and Hadiths of Ahlul-Bayt (a.s.), the Concepts of “Social Ubuwah”, “Social Bunuwah” and “Social Ukhuwah” have been Explained.

An important part of everyday human communication is based on non-verbal language and a large number of communication concepts in interpersonal and public interactions through pauses, glances, gestures, facial expressions. And ... it is exchanged that it is called extra-linguistic actions. Non-verbal language is very important because it is the source of people's first perceptions of each other, and a large percentage of people's judgments about each other are based on facial expressions, movements, gestures, physical appearance, and so on.. Among the texts that deserve to be examined is the non-verbal language of the body, the sermons of Nahj al-Balaghah. These sermons are a treasure trove of Arabic literature that has attracted the attention of many thinkers and writers. This study tries to examine the elements of non-verbal language of the body in the sermons of Nahj al-Balaghah and the degree of coherence of these elements with the concepts intended by the Imam in a descriptive-analytical way and from this perspective to present a beautiful analysis of the sermons . Research shows that facial and hand movements are the most efficient and most common types of nonverbal communication used in Nahj al-Balaghah sermons. Non-verbal language of other body parts includes: face color, head movement and foot movement Be; The functions of the non-verbal language of the body in the sermons of Nahj al-Balaghah have been conscious and to convey moral and educational messages.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of the role of religion in determining the size of government. For this purpose, a simple economic-political model was considered following the study of Azzi and Ehrenberg (1975) based on the study of Meltzer-Richard, and religiosity was modeled as the intensity of satisfaction from charitable donations for public goods, in which the more religious people are, the more satisfaction they get from voluntary donations. Religious people vote for lower levels of taxation than secular people in order to spend a larger portion of their income on voluntary  contributions. Thus, the political process leads to a reduction in the size of government in more religious countries, meaning lower levels of spending on public goods and redistribution. The "belief in life after death" index was considered a religious criterion, and for the size of the government, the tax burden indices and the ratio of government expenditures and transfer payments to GDP were considered. Data were collected for a period of 15 years (2018-2004) from the Statistics Center and the Central Bank of Iran and GMM and 2ls IV econometric models were used to analyze the data. The results showed: a) Countries with a higher level of belief in life after death (more religious) tend to have a higher level of tax burden, so the size of government is reduced. b) The variable of belief in life after death as a measure of religiosity has a negative and significant effect on the ratio of government spending to GDP as a measure of government size. Therefore, more religious countries will have a lower ratio of government spending to GDP, which would mean a reduction in government size. c) Countries with a higher level of belief in the afterlife (religion) have a lower level of transfer payments, which would mean a smaller size of government. Finally, it can be stated that more religious countries have lower levels of taxes and government spending. On the contrary, it is expected the size of government in smaller religious countries to be smaller. Therefore, religion and the cost of government welfare are considered as alternative mechanisms for providing social insurance.

The arrival, learning and availability of social networks has caused many harms to adolescents and young people, and many of the harms of these networks have caused problems in the family. These injuries directly affect adolescents and young adults, including fraud, hacking, contact with unhealthy people, and contact with the opposite sex. The family is a safe place for all members to minimize the harm of social networks, but in many cases, it is possible to protect children from the potential dangers of these networks by monitoring and controlling children, and this Unauthorized monitoring and control is an example of a violation of children's privacy. Thinking about demarcating privacy on the one hand and maintaining family security and peace on the other hand has created a conflict between these two tasks, namely maintaining security and not violating privacy. This article uses a descriptive-analytical method and with reference to the original Islamic sources, seeks to answer the question of whether the family can monitor the intrusion into users' systems and their information and communications to maintain their security or not. ? The present article followed the finding that due to more interests (otherworldly interests and the number of people), compliance with moral goals and maintaining the dignity of individuals, maintaining family security and the user of the moral principle is ambiguous.

Holding film festivals that are held every year with a specific title and theme around the world provide special opportunities for participants from host and guest countries. In this global event, opportunities are provided for those involved in film production and a part of professional and amateur audiences to watch, analyze and award awards. In this article, these opportunities are presented as opportunities and threats and strengths and weaknesses. Face to face, the cinema of the Islamic Republic of Iran has been studied in international film festivals, which are part of cultural diplomacy, and has analyzed each of them in terms of the situation they create. Therefore, in order to receive opportunities and threats and strengths and weaknesses created in these festivals by Delphi method and interviews with experts in this field, a questionnaire was prepared and after two stages of answering and collecting and calculating Cronbach's alpha coefficient above 7 out of 123 people and analyzing it. Using the SWOT method, it was possible to identify the mentioned cases, which showed that festivals face 8 opportunities and 8 threats, and also Iranian cinema has 16 strengths and 15 weaknesses. Continue to study more and identify these points and their impact on use and interest. Taking advantage of these situations, several operational proposals were made. These proposals have been analyzed in light of the cultural diplomacy of Iranian cinema and the background of Islamic culture and what is being done today.

The present study aims to visualize the research articles on monotheistic/Abrahamic religions‎, including Islam, Judaism, and Christianity, to identify and picture the subjects addressed in religious studies in the 21st century.

This is applied research adopting a scientometrics approach in doing co-word analysis. The research population consists of all WoS-indexed articles on monotheistic religions‎ published in the 21st century.

The results revealed four subject clusters of Islamic studies, including Islamic traditions and thoughts, Islamophobia, business and financial affairs in Islam, and Islamic countries. The research on Christianity appeared to focus on Christianity connections with other religions, including Judaism and Islam, and Christian thoughts and beliefs. The research on Judaism clustered was around the Jewish population, the role of women and family, and the connection of Judaism with Christianity and the Holocaust. It seems that interfaith interactions and beliefs are a shared research interest in monotheistic religion studies. While a cluster of Islamic studies focuses on Islamophobia, war, and terrorism, the natural face of Islam is not accurately represented in social media. In this regard, Islamic studies received more traditional and social citations. Findings showed that out of 27143 indexed articles related to Islamic research on the WoS, 4829 articles were reflected in 16 social media. The results also showed that the most active Twitter, Facebook, news media, and policy documents are USA, England, and Australia. Among the Islamic nations, Indonesians are the most active users of social media. Iran ranks eighth in terms of the number of articles. The altmetric scores of the most cited Iranian and non-Iranian articles were 768 and 73, respectively. The subject of the former was Islamophobia, and the latter addressed fasting in Islam.

The significance of the study lies in the insights it provides for religious and research policymakers to use the context of social media, rather than filtering them, in promoting the subjects addressed in the research articles.

Discursive formulation of leadership statements about of dynamics of sexuality in Iranian society. Today, the study of sexual culture is one of the fundamental studies in the social sciences. The importance of this issue is that sexual instinct can be considered as the driver and starting point of the process of meaning-making in human society. Therefore, semantics, interaction and reproduction of sexuality in relation to other dimensions and structures of the social system (culture, religion, economy, politics, law, education, media, etc.) on the one hand can lead to social order. And on the other hand lead to social turmoil and anxiety. This has led to different approaches and discourses around it; Discourses that analyze changes in sexual culture in their layers and axes of discourse and suggest strategies appropriate to their discourse in interacting and dealing with its changes. In the present article, an attempt has been made to formulate a discourse using the operational method of discourse analysis , the statements of the Supreme Leader as a social thinker about the changes in the sexual culture of Iranian society. Because each discourse analyzes the changes in sexual culture in terms of the impact of certain factors, goals and strategies. In this study, four discourse axes related to semantic components, central signifiers and causes and factors of sexual culture changes in Iranian society have been discovered and formulated, which has been studied based on the theory of social change.

The importance of the family has long been important - even in the unbridled societies of the West and the East - but the family today seems to have changed. So that in modern families, the role of families in marriage is very minimal. In the traditional family, families, especially the father, had the most role and the daughter played a very small role. So he had to wait for the suitors and if the suitor did not come, he either had to form his own undesirable family or choose celibacy, in which the father's opinion played a key role. Accordingly, the present article seeks to ask whether female activism is preferable in family formation or not? .Therefore, by examining religious sources, he deals with "proving the preference of women's electors with the help of religious sources" and then proves the "preference of women's electors using social science theories", which are: communication arguments (communication action) Habermas), intellectual (combination of right and duty), educational (relationship between coach and educator) and economic (adaptation theory) and finally concludes that in today's society, women activists in the formation of the family is preferable to traditional and modern methods. Finally, by examining the harms, he proposes a favorable model of female activism in forming a family based on "choice by the girl" and "courtship by the boy".

Internet, despite its benefits and potentials, has disadvantages for all countries, especially Iran, which has unique cultural, religious, and political characteristics. One way of dealing with these threats is imposing a filtering system, which has been seriously pursued almost since the advent of the Internet in the country. Examining the various dimensions of the Iranian filtering system shows that we are facing a "Maximum Filtering Policy", although being implemented incompletely in practice. This policy has been based on some of the Islamic jurisprudential principles such as "Duty of Enjoining the Right and Forbidding the Wrong"(Amr bi al-Maruf wa'l-Nahy an al-Munkar), "Prohibition the Books of Misguidance"(Hurmat-e Kutub al-Dalal), and "The Rule of Rejecting Foreign Influence"(Nafy-e Sabil). Based on these rules, the researchers have concluded that filtering the Internet is permitted or even essential. This study has tried to investigate the arguments of permitting Internet filtering based on the Islamic jurisprudential principles. The results suggested that among the cited principles, it is only the "Duty of Enjoining the Right and Forbidding the Wrong" can be referred independently to form the basis of filtering system, however, its achievement in practice requires satisfying some essential requirements. In addition, by considering the experience and effects of the current policy, it was concluded that the filtering policy needs to be replaced by a more lenient one, and this does not face any obstacles in terms of Islamic jurisprudential principles.

While the knowledge and social mentality of academic societies is more based on the study of modern and postmodern paradigms, in the field of art and media we are faced with another level of cinematic works that indicate the emergence of a paradigm different from the aforementioned paradigms. Be and depicts new propositions for the spiritual and cultural futures of human societies. Using media, art is representative and at the same time influenced by global thinking, which suggests possible meanings and ways of looking at the world. Beyond the positive, interpretive and critical ideas of the modern-postmodern world, a considerable number of cinematic works present a new image of the cumulative presence of premodern spiritual-historical propositions with modern and postmodern cognitive-interpretive components as well as propositions. In order to identify and formulate the supernatural concepts and assumptions of the transmodern paradigm, a descriptive-analytical method has been used. The supernatural discourse represented in the film represents a new trans-modern paradigm. Discourse styles such as myth, savior and future are the most important components of the discourse that governs the film. These components cannot be reinterpreted in current and conventional governing discourses and must therefore be articulated in the new discourse; The discourse that we have mentioned in this research with a transmodern interpretation. The findings of this study indicate the emergence of a new semantic realm for humans under the transmodern paradigm in the third millennium, the most obvious effect of which can be seen in Hollywood cinema.
