The human behavior construction is a very complicated process, which requires various techniques to achieve it. This process is one of the main characteristics in guiding human or community behaviors and is undoubtedly one of the tools and instruments of the convergence of human societies, identifying them, and ultimately aligning and empathizing for common goals. In other words, in the course of history, the leadership and behavioral construction of human societies has always been the responsibility of those who have been able to coexist with others. Prophets of revelation are those people who have been more successful in creating personal and collective identities than others. Although the identification tools of evangelical revelers, other than time and space components, are also reflected in other factors, such as soft-engineering behavior, these factors are reflected as an influential strategic policy in identifying their performance. This paper, taken from a joint research project at the Qur'an and Etrat Science College and the College of Geographical Sciences and Planning of the University of Isfahan, relying on an analytical methodology of kinematics, attempts to recognize the temporal and spatial techniques used by the prophets of revelation. The results from this research show that revelators have used time and space as strategic tools in identifying communities. Also, chastity is one of the fundamental attributes of identity in the techniques of revelators.
