Abstract

The purpose of the article is to identify and identify the indicators of resistance and measure its impact on modern Islamic civilization. The research has been done in terms of type, fundamental-applied and mixed method (qualitative-quantitative). In order to know the components and indicators of Islamic resistance in the qualitative part, in the first stage, by reviewing the research literature, researches have been conducted and based on the words of the leaders of the Islamic Revolution. In the context of explaining Islamic resistance, in addition to the conceptual framework of resistance, the balance of power theory was used as a theoretical framework. Factors and variables (components and indicators) were extracted from qualitative data analysis. In the second step of the research, by consulting experts and conducting semi-structured interviews, the completion, modification, and repair of the indicators calculated from the theoretical foundations and research literature were discussed. In the end (quantitative part), in order to measure the impact of each of the resistance components and indicators and its impact on civilization and the ratio between the indicators, Spearman's correlation coefficient, simple linear regression test (bivariate) and test Stepwise multiple regression was used. Based on qualitative findings, indicators of Islamic resistance were identified in the four dimensions of political Islam, Islamic cohesion, Islamic governance and basic people's defense. And the impact of each on civilization was determined in the quantitative analysis section. As a result, the hypothesis of the effect of Islamic resistance on civilization was confirmed and explained
