Results: The cycle of human existential structure examines human perceptions (including sense, imagination, illusion, and reason) and action. The gained knowledge can lead man to grow or fall. Thinking is the main tool of research, discoveries, inventions, etc. If the thinking based on the understanding of Islam, the principles of our nature, and the light of faith, then the gained knowledge can grow a man. This directly related to the self-knowledge of scholars. Based on the human existential structure, the gained knowledge will transfer into the human actions, which consequently socialized and will be important in the formation of the Islamic civilization.

Achievement of scientific authority can be a great help to self-development, society-processing, and civilization-building. Quranic/religious think-tanks and scientific/research centers of Iran, through close cooperation and interaction based on the human existential structure, can train scholars to help the realization of attaining scientific authority.
