So when audiences were exposed to the message of Ali Shariati in the traditional communication process they imagined it was a manifestation of religion with the concept of revolution, which had never happened before. Therefore Shariati was one of the most successful intellectuals in contacting with the audience, someone unprecedented in the history of Iran.Â
