Abstract

Objective: Quranic activities in Iran have gone through different periods. After the approval of the Charter of Development of Quranic Culture, these activities have become more cohesive and various areas have been defined for it, but the lack of attention to future developments can reduce the effectiveness. The purpose is to identify the future challenges of these activities and to create a suitable environment for thinking about them.
Method: The present study is descriptive in nature and in terms of purpose, it is an applied-developmental. A mixed exploratory research design and qualitative and quantitative methods have been used to advance the issues addressed in the article.
Findings: The fields of macro-management, governance, public education, religion, research and higher education, and manpower as major fields of human life will undergo dramatic changes in the future, which will strongly affect the corresponding parts of these fields in the field of Quranic activities and will pose numerous challenges for these activities.
Conclusion: Inability of researchers of Quranic science and knowledge in interacting and transmitting findings to the scientific community of the country, lack of familiarity with the concepts and teachings of Quran and lack of ability for Quranic activities in seminary and university graduates, inability of religious propaganda system to respond and defend the legitimacy of Quran. The value and non-norm of public Quran education in the culture of families and the general culture of the society, the lack of training system for managers and planners with sincere and efficient Quranic and the focus of entertainment in cyberspace and neglect of religious affairs are the most important challenges of Quranic activities in the future.
