Abstract
"Islamic culture" as a large and wide-ranging social reality, nurtures a series of issues within itself that have a theoretical or practical nature. In the meantime, there are some issues that are "fundamental" and "fundamental", and other issues are addressed in some way. In this article, the aim is to address three basic issues in the context of Ayatollah Khamenei's cultural thought: "The possibility and significance of Islamic culture"; "Desirability and legitimacy of Islamic culture" and "Efficiency and capability of Islamic culture". The main question is what answers did Ayatollah Khamenei give to the fundamental issues of Islamic culture? For this purpose, the method of "qualitative content analysis" has been used; In such a way that first, based on logical analysis, three categories of problems have been identified as conceptual categories, and then, through library study, the contents appropriate to each have been collected and narrated based on qualitative analysis. This article shows that in Ayatollah Khamenei's thought, first of all, Islamic culture is a "meaningful" category and Islam has presented an "independent culture"; Second, Islamic culture has "virtue" and "superiority" over other cultures, and the theory of cultural relativity can not be applied to Islamic culture; Third, historical experiences are replete with examples of the "efficiency" and "empowerment" of this culture in the objective realm and in everyday life (result).
