Abstract
The aim of the present research was to explore the place of the indicators of rationality in the four fields of the model of Islamic progress based on the political thought of the Supreme Leader. Rationality is one of the basic foundations of the discourse of the revolution, which religion-centeredness, inseparable from spirituality and justice, correct calculation and away from conservatism, justice, anti-arrogance, democracy and authority, are among its original characteristics and components. Such rationality is a strong lever for moving forward and progressing. Ayatollah Khamenei considers the model of progress to have four basic areas: "Thought", "Science", "Life" and "Spirituality". The data collection in this article was done with the FISH tool and the data processing was done in a descriptive-analytical form using the discourse analysis method.The research process was such that first the indicators of rationality were extracted from the statements of the Supreme Leader and then the position of these indicators in the pattern of progress was explored. In this way, it was proved that the model of Islamic progress is a model arising from Islamic rationality and it does not have any contradiction with the rationality of Islam
