Objective: Distributive justice has been considered as one of the goals of the Islamic Revolution from the perspective of the religious revival movement, which is manifested in the school of Imam Khomeini as the main leader of the revolution and one of the thinkers of this movement. The objectives of this research are to examine the characteristics of this concept and its place in the Iranian socio-political system from the perspective of the aforementioned movement and Imam Khomeini in particular. Methodology: In this article, a qualitative method with the content analysis method was used to examine and analyze distributive justice in the school of Imam Khomeini, and in terms of data collection, the library method was used, with an emphasis on the collection of Imam Khomeini's works. Findings: In the content analysis of distributive justice, the hypothesis that characteristics such as poverty alleviation, limitation of legitimate ownership, class orientation towards the oppressed, and an egalitarian view in implementing economic justice in the religious revival movement and in particular Imam Khomeini's thought were used to operationally define the concept of distributive justice was confirmed. Conclusion: After analyzing the data, question, and hypothesis of the article, it was concluded that belief in distributive justice as one of the political and social requirements existed in Imam Khomeini's school in his desired Islamic government, and its impact on post-revolutionary policymaking should be considered in other studies.
