Abstract
The purpose of the present study is to find out how to create "basic concepts" as an essential step in establishing Islamic psychology. The method of this research is a qualitative research that has been conducted with a descriptive-analytical approach to religious sources and psychological findings. The findings of the research are as follows: 1) Every intellectual paradigm has its own "basic concepts" which is in line with its goals and philosophical foundations; 2) One of the basic steps to answer research questions is to identify effective concepts and turn them into "basic concepts" in a clear process; 3) Each basic concept has a theoretical and operational definition, specified capabilities and capacities; is bounded by the same concepts and agreed by the specialists of that field; 4) Providing a set of basic concepts makes it unnecessary to take on basic concepts from other scientific paradigm, to explain phenomena;.5) By discovering the relationship between basic concepts, one can explain phenomena and / or theorize. Finally, for the operation of the proposed method, the three concepts of "belonging", "alert" and "thankfulness", which potentially have the potential to become the "basic concept" in psychology, are introduced as three examples. The result is that one of the basic steps in establishing Islamic psychology is the production of "basic concepts".
