Abstract :
Determining a perspective and drawing bright horizons for growth and elevation is the first and most basic step for achieving an ideal structural design in any organization and institution. For all the efforts made to lead universities to their proper status in our Islamic country and the issue of Islamization of this holy institution, enough attention has not yet been paid to drawing a perspective for this institution based on Islamic teachings. This paper tries to review the key topics in the concept of Islamic university’s perspective, prominent features of Islamic university, and the criteria of Islamic university’s perspective. It tries to draw the perspective and proper image of this institutions based on the analysis of Quranic verses. This research introduces Islamic university as an institution with three fundamental characteristics; scientific identity, Islamic direction and religious identity, and usefulness and service. The paper presents Islamic university’s proper perspective comprising the criteria of wisdom, competence, goodness and beauty, and clarifies its pattern and depicts its Islamic structure and framework.
