This research aims to analyze and compare the thoughts of three prominent Persian Muslim intellectuals, Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Murtadha Muthahhari, and Ali Shari’ati, in responding to the challenges of modernity. Utilizing a qualitative method with a Comparative Study approach, this research examines literature such as books, journals, and relevant documents to identify the similarities and differences in the ideas of these three figures. The results indicate that Nasr emphasizes the spiritual crisis of modern man and proposes Sufism and traditional philosophy as solutions. Muthahhari focuses on the reconstruction of the political system through the concept of religious democracy based on justice and popular sovereignty under Divine law. Meanwhile, Ali Shari’ati presents Islam as a revolutionary ideology for social transformation to eliminate exploitation through the concepts of ummah and imamah. Despite their differing approaches (spiritual, socio-political, and revolutionary) all three agree that Islam serves as a fundamental answer to the multidimensional crisis caused by Western civilization.
