The study was conducted with co-occurrence analysis of words and network analysis technique to identify the conceptual relationships between published papers on the subject of Imam Reza. 1305 articles focusing on Imam Reza were analyzed by comprehensive studies. Descriptive data were entered into Excel software to standardize and draw graphs. Ravromatrix was used to prepare symmetric matrices to draw coherent maps. The matrices were entered into the UCINet to calculate the degree of centrality of degree. VOSViewer software was also used to illustrate the maps. The research findings showed that writers such as Khalil Beigzadeh and Zahra Ghasemnejad are among the most prolific writers. The Ferdowsi University of Mashhad is also in the first rank of participation in publishing articles on the subject of Imam Reza.
