The modernist Islamic Movement sought to reconcile modern values and Islamic
faith and attempted to express these values through an Islamic discourse and to
reform political, religious and educational institutions along modernist lines.
However, such a movement in the Islamic Republic of Iran raised controversy
among the traditional leadership and secular intellectual groups. <br>The aim of this
paper is to discuss how far modernist Islam could progress in an islamic republic
with an old tradition.
