Islamic Association Union Compaign in Europe and America

It is enlightening to study the relationship between religious intellectuals and clergymen (ulama) in Pahlavi Period. Muslim students as an important body among the religious intellectuals contributed to this relationship by instituting a society called Muslim Student's Association (MSA) with branches inside and outside Iran. MSA for the Iranian students abroad was most active in establishing ties with Imam Khomeni and the clergymen، mainly due to the inability of the Iranian Intelligence Service in limiting their activities. Based on John Forren's theory، namely culture and agent، this essay intend to prove the theory that MSA adopted different discourses of the revolutionary Shia during its activity and on the eve of Islamic Revolution، adopted Imam Khomeini's discourse as the guiding ideology.
