This study aimed to develop a Quran-based emotional intelligence measurement questionnaire. The method of this quantitative research was a survey-based fieldwork. The statistical population consisted of men and women over 20 years of age from the cities of Qom, Tehran, Isfahan, Mashhad, and Yazd. This questionnaire is based on the author's previous research, in which the components of Quran-based emotional intelligence were extracted and verified. In the first stage, based on the obtained components, items were designed and provided to experts to examine content validity. The content validity index (0.79) and relative coefficient (0.49) indicated the content validity of the items; in the next stage, the questionnaire was administered to a sample of 840 people to examine the reliability and construct validity. The findings showed: a) The Quran-based emotional intelligence questionnaire has desirable psychometric properties; b) The reliability of the questionnaire using Cronbach's alpha method is 0.97 for the entire questionnaire, and for each of the components: faith beliefs (0.96), interpersonal emotion control (0.85), empathy (0.81), intrapersonal emotion control (0.85), imperviousness (0.78), divine inspirations (0.72), religious responsibility (0.84), and forgiveness (0.74); c) The results of factor analysis showed that the questionnaire has good construct validity; therefore, this tool has good underlying factors for measuring emotional intelligence and can be used in research and measurement.
