Committed to Ayatollah Beheshti's vision, TT covers domestic, political, social, and sports news, as well as commentary and cultural and religious issues. With an extensive readership spanning over 80 countries, TT has become a reliable news source for foreign media outlets and envoys in Tehran, offering insights into the country.

The newspaper also fulfills an educational role, providing English language students with a source to learn Standard English and publishing a glossary of press vocabularies with their Persian equivalents. Beyond news coverage, TT includes stories on Iran’s tourist attractions, women’s issues, children’s issues, and the internet. In addition, TT established the Mehr News Agency (MNA) in 2002.
