In Iran, as in other Muslim lands, the need has been felt for a reinterpretation of Islam, which will revive a pure belief both among the masses, whose faith is mingled with superstitions, and among those who have received Western or Western-inspired educations, many of whom have been affected by the spread of scepticism. In recent years, certain thinkers have appeared, from among both the religious leaders and the Western educated intellectuals, who have endeavoured to satisfy that need. The purpose of this thesis is to describe the ideas of some of these thinkers, the greatest of whom, in the writer's opinion, are Sangalaji and Rashid.
