Abstract
Future studies in religious figures, currents, and movements, due to their characteristics, require an appropriate method to be comprehensive, adaptable, and useful. Accordingly, a "comprehensive model" has been designed for future studies in the aforementioned subjects. This method includes monitoring and analyzing events and approaches, identifying factors, estimating different future states, determining goals and strategies, and has scientific and operational contributions. Future studies of contemporary Wahhabism in Saudi Arabia based on the aforementioned model conclude: Changes in Wahhabism in the Al Saud government are certain, and various Wahhabism centers will be affected. Accordingly, appropriate goals and strategies have been determined and identified with existing threats and opportunities, and the implementation of the "comprehensive model" has been explained as a scientific example.
