‌The Begining and Structure
Mabna Research Center established in 2011 as "Serat-e Mobin Cultural-Research Institute" with the efforts of some seminary and university professors and researchers in the field of culture in the holy city of Qom. This institute, which started with the license of the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance, in 2018 obtained the license from the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology to work as a research center. In this way and as "Mabna Research Center", the scientific and research orientation of this center strengthened. The center currently operates with two research groups:
   Religious Culture Group: This research group analyzes the cultural issues of the country - which have been extracted according to the System of Cultural Issues of the country - with a strategic approach in a problem-oriented manner, and presents research results in the form of books, magazines, strategic reports, status estimations, etc.
   Religious Institutions Group: This group operates in two areas: the theoretical foundations of Islamic government, and religious institutions. In this group, on the one hand, theoretical issues such as the Fiqh of government, human rights, government theory and the Fiqh of society are discussed and researched, and on the other hand, pathological analysis and studies of religious institutions such as Hawza and clergy are presented.
