In the current era, the importance of the fundamental role of the humanities and social sciences in realizing a coherent and civilization-building intellectual system and their application in social control and development in Islamic societies is more clear and recognizable than ever before. In addition, research into the foundations of these sciences, their criticism and evaluation, efforts to extract Islamic foundations and perspectives in the field of humanities, and in this regard, their Islamization and localization play a significant role and necessity. For this purpose, the most important and fundamental step is to present, examine, and criticize the foundations, perspectives, and theories of these sciences and to present theoretical frameworks that have the necessary and sufficient coordination with our cultural and religious foundations. Therefore, conducting fundamental, developmental, and applied research in the field of social sciences and their relations with religion, and evaluating and examining existing schools of thought in this field, are among the goals and missions of the quarterly journal "Islam and Social Sciences."
