Summary/Abstract: In this study, the approach of Ahtar newspaper to the main issues in the Islamic world has been considered from various angles. Akhtar newspaper has served as a bridge in the transfer of modern ideas and understandings to Iran and has influenced the Persian cultural basin. This influence has paved the way for the emergence of many developments in a wide geography. The Iranian legitimacy in the sense of Western democracy is the most typical example of this. Ahtar has been trying to convey to his readers the level reached by Western civilization since the moment he started publishing, and has tried to propose solutions to the situation in which Eastern societies are located. Speaking about the importance of continuing education, culture, and work, he called on Eastern societies to follow the example of the West. Akhtar called on Eastern societies to unite around the religion of Islam, to stay away from serialization and to be vigilant against the foreign policies pursued by Western countries. In this context, it was emphasized that national and religious differences in the Islamic world should not be seen as a cause of hostility, and that they should remain in history, not be maintained as a point of hostility, if this is not done, the issues of the time cannot be informed and this situation will be useful to the European powers.
