  The eighth century in Yazd should be considered as a period of cultural improvement, because many educational centers such as schools, and libraries were established in this period and religious and non-religious sciences were taught and developed in these centers by scholars up to a point where Yazdi scientists had a say in some fields and in some others, they were not that distinctive. In the meanwhile, although Mongols’ assault caused some of these centers to be destroyed, it made Sufism to grow rapidly which was accepted by the people. The reason of it was that Sufis were not interested in material affairs. As the time went on and as the Sufis entered the government and the court, they got corrupted by bribery and became venal and thus were hated by the folks. However, Sufism was developed culturally and arts and architecture was paid more attention by the governors and the people. Some centers were also built by some great men, some of which were endowed.
