By doing so, the journal hopes to improve the status of the field in Iran and in the world and to find solutions to theoretical and practical problems the profession is faced with. To serve this purpose, researchers are encouraged to submit their unpublished, original, full-length papers for potential publication in the journal. 

The journal is set to publish original articles on a wide range of issues including;

• Philosophy of Islamic education;
• Schools and approaches to Islamic education;
• Educational jurisprudence (Fiqh);
• Foundations, principles and methodology of Islamic education;
• History of Islamic education;
• Educational thoughts, views and ideas of Muslim scholars;
• Educational sciences such as educational management, curriculum planning and educational psychology with an Islamic approach;
• Comparative studies;
• The areas and dimensions of education in Islam include religious education, devotional education, moral education, sexual education, political education, and so on;
• Methodology of research in Islamic education;

To let individual researchers and libraries have access to the most recent research findings in the field, the journal allows open-access to its articles. This journal utilizes the Magiran and Noormags preservation systems to create a distributed archiving system for individual and libraries and to permit libraries stakeholders to create permanent archives of the journal.
