Abstract
The Corona-virus has permeated in all aspects of human life and caused a variety of governance and lifestyle changes, both at the government\\\'s level and at the civil society level. These changes have been completely transforming the context, direction, and structure of political movements. Various political movements, including Islamic movements in different parts of the Middle East and the Islamic world, have been affected by the Covid19, and the pandemic conditions have changed the structure and orientation of these movements. The main ideology of Islamic movements is derived from political Islam with different regional and geographical tendencies.There are three political descriptions and constructions of Islam in modern times: (1) populist Islam, which stands in the face of modern society through charity work or terrorist acts; (2) political Islam, which tries to apply its program through legitimate channels rather than through terrorism or coup d\\\'état; and (3) cultural Islam, which develops an Islamic vision that deals with the modern world. Islam is a kind of politics at all three levels and has social, political and cultural claims. The post -pandemic will be a period of transformation for all three tendencies of Islam. The Corona pandemic has transformed most Muslim scholars and the discourses of political Islam. Science, which has been the mainstay of controlling the Corona epidemic, has revolutionizing Muslim discourses. This essay points out that post-pandemic will transform the discourse of political Islam at all three levels. The basis of this transformation will include various dimensions of issues within as well as outside of political Islam discourse.
