Therefore, present study is conducted to examine the relationship between organizational citizenship behavior and spiritual intelligence among employees at Qom Training and Education Organization.

Research population (263) consists of all employees at Qom Training and Education Organization. By using Available sampling method and Morgan table, 153 subjects were selected as research sample. Data collection instrument is a questionnaire that its validity was studied by content validity and factor validity while its reliability was studied by Chronbach’s alpha value (0.911) which shows acceptable reliability of the questionnaire. Data analysis is conducted by using correlation test, multivariate regression and Pearson correlation coefficient. The results suggest that all OCB aspects except than sportsmanship associate with spiritual intelligence positively and significantly while the relationship between spiritual intelligence and sportsmanship is not significant.
