        The Zanjan-Abhar plain is one of the most important region in the north western of Iran. However, now, it remains as an unknown place historically and archaeologically. This paper aims to examine the position of citis suited in the grand Abhar-Zanjān plain in the system of administrative division in Iran from the Early Islamic to the Qajar period. The results show that Zanjān and Abhar towns were considered sometime in Jebāl province, sometime in Deilam and sometime in Azarbaījān. In the 8th A.H century, by the construction of Sultāniyya in Sharouyaz, it became as seasonal capital of the Ilkhan with an independent administrative identity and distinguished city from Abhar and Zanjān. In early 10th A.H century and with the decline of Sultāniyya, its position reduced to a village in Jebāl or sometimes in Azarbaījān, affiliated to Zanjān and by the end of 13th A.H. century was a village depended to khamseh province.    Manuscript profile

        The architecture of the 7th century in Azerbaijan is the manifestation of the glory of Islamic art in Iran, and the peak of it is the Tabrīz school of architecture, which has become more beautiful and richer with the emergence of political and religious developments in the Ilkhanate period and changes in previous styles, especially in the arrangement and decoration of buildings. Therefore, the aim of the above research is to know those changes and the concepts hidden in them, which have taken place by examining the geometric arrays, as the dominant decorations in the buildings of this period, in one of the prominent buildings of the Tabriz school, namely the Sultanīyah dome. The building, which is used as a tomb, is a manifestation of the religious and religious beliefs of its era and is considered a window to reach the secrets hidden in the arrangement of the remaining works of this school. In this regard, the recognition of linguistic commonalities in mysticism and architecture and the investigation of mystical themes hidden in geometric arrays are among the goals of the above research, and the results show the influence of mysticism on the geometric arrays of Sultanīyah Dome.   Manuscript profile

           Abolhassan Mawardi is a fifth-century political theorist who played an important role in shaping the foundations of the Islamic State's political power. The political ideas of Muslim policymakers have also found their way into historical texts over time. In this study, the authors have tried to examine in a descriptive-analytical way the similarities between the political views of Mawardi on the requirements of government and the duties of rulers in the book Al-ahkam al-soltaniyya wa al-welayat-e al-diniyya and the religious provinces in the Tarikh-i Jahangosha. Findings show that the main components of common political views in the two books "Al-Ahkam Al-Sultaniyya wa alwelayat-e al-diniyya" and "Tarikh-i Jahangosha-ye Joveyni" in six main areas of rule, duties of Imam and ruler, removal of Imam and ruler, rulers of domination, suppression of opposition, bureaucracy and nine can be checked. In the writings of both authors, the attainment of power and the permanence of government for the ruler is a matter of divine will and approval. The three main duties of the ruler are to help religion, jihad and justice.The caliph and the sultan, in obedience, have equal rights and duties, and the suppression of political enemies is interpreted as jihad, and efficient government agents and institutions increase the longevity of the state.

        5 - Impact Of Islamic Mysticism on Iranian Architecture with an Emphasis on Soltaniyeh Dome Decorations

        In the realm of mysticism, art is a kind of spiritual journey in which the artist, heavenly and spiritually inspired, achieves intuition. In fact, the Islamic art and architecture is the manifestation of the almighty revelation on the earth, the delicacy and subtleness of which will take the mystics to the apocalypse and intuition. Traditional historic buildings in the Islamic architecture are emblems of the heaven and manifestation of the divinely tradition in which the skills and delicacies used come in close relation with the spiritual and metaphysical principles. Meticulous attention to the decorations and drawings, as well as the selection of the statements and concepts used in the inscriptions on the Islamic buildings, can make one witness the direct and indirect impact of Islamic mysticism and Sufism over the designs. The abundance of the Koranic verses in the inscriptions and mosques decorations and shrines and Imam Descendents shrines and domes, including Soltaniyeh Dome where every inch is sainted and virtue stricken, could be related to the topic of "citation" and "beads" that are among the major issues of Islamic Sufism and mysticism. In addition, the image or design of a "star" as a symbol of illumination and beauty, the center of which is the word "Allah" and sided by the words Mohammad and Ali demonstrate the spiritual leadership of God and divine leaders within the internal and external direction of Tariqa disciples, which are abundantly seen in the designs and images of the domes decorations, especially Soltaniyeh. The unity between Shari'ah, Tariqa, and reality is one of the major issues of mysticism that are easily seen in some parts of inscriptions and designs of Islamic buildings, including Soltaniyeh, "Allah, Mohammad, Ali" adjacent. Within the decoration, the word "Allah" signifies reality, the word "Mohammad" signifies Shari'ah, and the word "Ali" signifies Tariqa. In addition, the sole use of the grand name of "Allah" exclusively used in inscriptions and decoration of Islamic buildings represents  the principle of "monotheism" and mystical monotheism in Islamic Sufism.

        With the help of ethnologic and linguistic researches and archeological discoveries in the last century, our knowledge today about shamans and shaman’s rituals are relatively more comprehensive and inclusive than before. Researcher’s attribute the precedence of such cults to prehistoric and even Paleolithic times. Most scholars believe that Central Asian region and its surrounding areas have been the origin of the shamans. Mongol tribes are one of the most wellknown inhabitants of these regions which have had a culture mixed with shaman beliefs for long times. After Mongol’s conquest of Iran in the seventh century, despite their trend to Islam, there was seen some gradual return to their ancestral beliefs the traces of which is evidenced in remaining materials related to them. In this paper, we analyze the symbols and traces of shamanism in Soltanieh, one of the most important capitals of Mongol’s Ilkhans, and show evidences of such beliefs reflected in Soltanieh dome and other areas of this city.  Manuscript profile
