Abstract :
The discourse of the Islamic revolution in Iran was developed and emerged with the approach of returning to pure Islam and the rule of the people, using the principles and foundations of jurisprudence, according to the requirements of time and place, under the leadership of Imam Khomeini, and for 10 years, he began to build a system under the management of the Imam himself. This article has examined the foundations of the discourse of the Islamic Revolution from the perspective of Imam Khomeini.The method of conducting this research is based on discourse analysis. This article, by raising the question of what principles and components was the discourse of the Islamic Revolution from Imam Khomeini's point of view, proposed the hypothesis that the central signifier of the discourse of the Islamic Revolution is political Islam. And Imam Khomeini, based on this central sign, while denying the sovereignty of the Taghout monarchy and emphasizing the centrality of Islamic standards in the administration of the country, was able to establish the Islamic Republic system by leading the Islamic Revolution and winning the trust of the Iranian people.The superior and sublime sign of the Islamic revolution, which defines its mission in guiding people, is the sublime standards of Islam, which brought forth its superior elements as floating signs such as freedom, justice, independence, deprivation, anti-authoritarianism, and legalism in the discourse of the revolution. .
