Abstract

The main issue of this research is the methodological re-reading of the successful models of social studies of religion among Shia scholars, for achieving theoretical pattern and an alternative methodological model. This type of secondary research can expand the discourse of Islamic humanities and the alternative models of Western religion social studies. For this purpose, the collection of "Narration of Fatah" texts, the writings of Avini about the holy defense, were studied as a successful example in understanding religious social phenomena. Qualitative method of grounded theory was used to extract the theoretical model of Avini's method. The results of the research indicate that the final model was formed around the axial category of "presence"."Presence" as the axial element of Avini's methodology has three dimensions: experimental and field presence, social and historical presence, and spiritual presence. The element of "love and belief" is the background and introduction of presence, and the element of "sameness" is its result. sameness and being privy, which is the result of negating the veil of selfishness, results in watching, finding secrets, revealing reality in the mirror of the researcher's soul, and realizing the "truth" of the phenomenon under study. After that, the element of "narrative" is placed, which is a method for "fetri" innate transtemporal and trans-spatial and documentary expression of research results to the absents and alignezation them with the truth. This methodological model of Avini can be called " illuminational Truthism” and the research resulting from this method can be called "Illuminational Social Science".
