Büveyhîler, 934-1056 (H. 322-448) tarihleri arasında İran ve Irak coğrafyasında hüküm sürmüş Deylemli bir hanedandır. Kurucu kardeşlerden Ahmet b. Büveyh, 945 (334) yılında Abbâsî Halîfesi Müstekfî-Billâh’ın emîrülümerâsı olmasının ardından saltanat alametlerini teslim almıştır. Bu alametlerden biri lakaplardır. Soylu bir hanedana sahip olmayan Büveyhîler, bu lakaplar sayesinde askerlerine, halkına ve rakiplerine karşı itibarlarını artırma arzusu içindeydiler. Aldıkları lakapları, hem aile içi rekabetlerinde hem de diğer hanedanlara karşı kullanıyorlardı. Bunların yanı sıra Sâsânî krallarının ünvanlarını da künyelerine ekleyerek, etnik bir kimlik yaratma çabasındaydılar. Hanedanın kadınları ile devlet erkânı da lakap sahipleri arasındaydı. Ancak sıklıkla dağıtılan lakaplar zamanla “en üstün olanı” işaret edememeye başlamıştır. Bu durum sayıları gittikçe artan lakapların değerinin azalmasına sebep olmuştur. Yapılan bu çalışmada lakap vermenin Abbâsî muhitindeki önem ve seyrine değinilecek ve Büveyhîlerin bu saltanat alametini bir prestij ve rekabet unsuru haline getirerek siyasi hayatlarını yönlendirmeleri örneklerle incelenecektir. Ardından da Büveyhî emîrlerinin ve devlet ricâlinin kullandıkları lakap ve ünvanlar hakkında bilgi verilecektir.

The history of imperial dynasties in West Asia is replete with examples of remarkable urban foundations. Two notable instances are the Sasanian Ardašīr-xwarrah and the Abbasid Madīnat al-Salām, which can be classified as cosmic cities or heterotopias. This article examines the utopian foundations of these heterotopias. To this end, it analyzes four religious and imperial spaces: the representation of the earth and sky in the Zoroastrian cosmography, Yima's Vara according to the Avestan texts, Ardašīr-xwarrah, and finally, Madīnat al-Salām. This investigation aims to ascertain the extent to which the spatial characteristics of each of these spaces have been utilized in the production of the subsequent architectural forms. Similarly, it examines the development of the cosmological and eschatological paradise in relation to the Achaemenian and Sasanian royal gardens. The theoretical framework of this study is based on Michael Foucault's notion of heterotopia, which has been further developed by Henri Lefebvre's theory of space. The conceptual metaphor theory offers a cognitive linguistic foundation for elucidating the projections of utopias and heterotopias onto one another. To this end, the article focuses on the conceptual metaphor GOD IS A KING. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objectives: This research investigates the most important efforts made by the Abbasid Caliphs against the people of innovation and deviation. They had successful efforts throughout the Abbasid era to eliminate the deviants and prevent them from carrying out their activities. The current research also aimed to investigate how the deviants had worked to undermine the Abbasid authority and the Islamic religion, and how they exaggerated in their words about religion and began to spread their deviant ideas and beliefs in an attempt to restore their glory and ancient authority. It also aimed to shed light on how the Abbasid caliphs face their danger, limit their influence, and eliminate some of their leaders. Methodology: To achieve the objectives of this study, the researchers adopted the historical descriptive approach when presenting the position of the Abbasid Caliphate on intellectual deviation, represented by the position of the Abbasid Caliphs against the intellectual deviation that appeared clearly in the Abbasid era by referring to specialized historical sources and references, dealing accurately while employing those sources to reach the most accurate information and clarify the position of the Abbasid Caliphate on those deviations.Results: The study showed many important results that were obtained during the research period, perhaps the most prominent of which are the following:1- The Abbasid era witnessed dangerous deviant intellectual movements carried out by the enemies of Islam to undermine Arabism and Islamic culture and strike the authority of the Arabs, by entering the ranks of Islamic sects and inclining them towards intellectual deviation.2- The Abbasid Caliphs worked to make efforts to eliminate them and work to cut off their continuous movements throughout the Abbasid era.3- Ending the issue of saying that the Qur’an was created, through the successful4- The Abbasid sultans had similar efforts to the efforts of the caliphs to eliminate heresies and deviations by the Ghaznavid and Seljuk sultans and Sultan Salahuddin Al-Ayyubi.Conclusion: The study recommends the necessity of emphasizing on researchers to study intellectual deviations in depth and to know the reasons that led to their emergence, who is behind them and the goals they seek to achieve. It also recommend to work on refuting the claims and falsehoods of those movements and rejecting their ideas that are foreign to Islamic society.

A group of coins excavated at Qasr-e Abu Nasr, Shiraz, in south-central Iran, now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, was studied and analyzed to examine the minting processes and to reconsider the numismatic history of the site. For this purpose, forty-three gold-, silver-, and copper-based coins were studied and analyzed by micro-X-ray fluorescence, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and metallographic techniques. The results of the analyses showed a wide range of alloy compositions. The gold coins are comprised of impure gold and electrum, while the silver coins are made of either near pure silver or debased silver copper. The copper-based coins are struck from a range of alloys, namely impure copper, tin bronze, leaded copper, and high-leaded tin bronze, closely correlated to the date and place of minting. The results of this interdisciplinary study provide new insights into the archaeology of Qasr-e Abu Nasr, as well as present new information about the history of minting on the Iranian Plateau.

Contribution to the essay forum "The Jewish Recipe." [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Abbasid caliphs were interested in holidays and celebrations, and their dining tables varied within the palaces, and the councils of mans and singing spread in their time the glories of the Arab nation, and in that period, singer Ibrahim Al-Mosli, as well as the son of Caliph Mahdi Muhammad, who combined singing and poetry and was fond of this art, and in addition, Al-Jawari and slaves participated in singing inside the palaces of the caliphs. Although many of the caliphs preferred to sing and praise, the Caliph al-Muhaddi prevented the councils of mankind during a period of wisdom, and the celebrations had a great place in the hearts of the caliphs and decorated for this day, including all holidays. Food tables cost the caliphs a lot of money, causing financial damage to the Abbas .

This research investigates the study and publication of the inscriptions of six Abbasid dinars dating back to the era of Caliph Harun al-Rashid (170-193 AH / 786-809 AD) and preserved in the Museum of Islamic Art in Cairo that had not previously been published or studied. These dinars are: (1) a dinar minted in the year (172 AH), bearing the name of Musa; (2) a dinar minted in the year (173 AH), bearing the name Omar; (3) a dinar minted in the year (185 AH), bearing the name of Muhammad al-Amin, Crown Prince; (4) a dinar minted in the year (186 AH), bearing the name Jaafar; (5) a dinar minted in the year (188 AH); (6) a dinar minted in the year (190 AH), bearing the phrase "for the Caliph".The researcher classified inscriptions and these six dinars into six styles that were examined in a chronological order. Each style, with its unique writing and decorations, is separately described. This is followed by an analysis and interpretation of these writings, whether they were names such as Musa, Omar, Jaafar, Muhammad Al-Amin, or titles such as: Emir, Ibn Amir al-Mu'minin, for the caliph, in light of different circumstances. There follows an overview of the features unique to each of the six models with its inscriptions and decorations, such features which do not exist in the other five models of these dinars. Thereafter, the researcher pointed to the dinar that is attributed to each type of the six dinars in question, and the number of his plate. Finally, reference was made to some published examples for each of them, whether preserved in the Museum of Islamic Art in Cairo, or the National Museum of Qatar. Inscriptions of the first model is distinguished by bearing the name of Musa, referring to Musa bin Isa al-Abbasi, who took over the Emirate of Egypt three times. The second model is also distinguished by including the name Omar, referring to Omar bin Ghaylan, or to Omar bin Oran. As for the third style, it is distinguished by carrying two margins of inscription on its back, including the name of the caliph's heir. The fourth type includes the name of Jaafar, referring to Jaafar bin Yahya bin Baramak, the minister of the Caliph Harun al-Rashid. The fifth type is also distinguished by its inclusion of the word caliph. Finally, the sixth model has no names.

This text supplements another, a paper presented a decade ago on the portrayal of Umayyad rulers in Chronography of Theophanes the Confessor (B. Cecota, Islam, the Arabs and Umayyad Rulers according to Theophanes the Confessor’s Chronography, “Studia Ceranea” 2, 2012, p. 97–111). I am limiting myself here to discussing only those source remarks which directly concern one of the Abbasid Caliphs, or alternatively, to narratives structured in such a manner that they implied certain traits of a ruler. General remarks concerning the portrayal of the entire dynasty have been included, both in the main text and in the footnotes, only where this was necessary for the understanding of the context in which the Caliphs’ descriptions appear.

The Bukhtīshūʿ family joined the palace from the beginning of the ʿAbbasid state and performed their duties as physicians for nearly two centuries. They made significant contributions to the world of science with their translations and copyrighted works in this field, as well as their role in making the medical institution of the ʿAbbāsid period operational. With the services of this family, Islamic civilization has made great progress in the field of medicine. Those whose information and works have survived in the sources: Ḏj̲urd̲j̲īs b. Djibrīl, Bukhtīshūʿ b. Ḏj̲urd̲j̲īs, Djibrīl b. Bukhtīshūʿ b. Ḏj̲urd̲j̲īs, Bukhtīshūʿ b. Djibrīl b. Bukhtīshūʿ, Djibrīl b. ’Ubayd Allah, ’Ubayd Allah b. D̲j̲ibrīl. Ibn Abi Usaybia, unlike his predecessors, dealt with these six physicians under headings and gave extensive information about their lives. The basis of classical technology is prepared for work. These are Ibn Abi Usaybia, Ibn al-Nadim, Ibn Al-Kıfti and Gregory Abû'l-Farac these are the best discounted prices. These works gave very important details about Bukhtīshūʿ. The person Ibn Abī Uṣaybiʿa’ is a physician's work ʿUyūn al-anbāʾ is a physician's stratum, and this scientist is in a position to distinguish himself from being one of his physicians in the ʿAbbāsid period and in a dignified manner.

This article considers the role of the Muslim authorities in enforcing Christian excommunication. After setting out late Roman precedents for the use of excommunication, it examines four cases in the period 650-850 in which the patriarch opposed other high-ranking clergy. It argues that Muslim authorities were increasingly willing to intervene in these disputes to support the legitimacy of the patriarch. The significance of this relationship is illustrated by the disintegration of the patriarch's to bring his opponents into line during periods of civil war, where the caliph's government was challenged.

Aghlabids(184-296 AH) was the first semi-independent government during the Abbasid caliphate in the Islamic Maghreb that with conquering parts of North Africa and southern Italy, especially Sicily and Palermo was able to Mint coins independently in your sphere of influence. Discovery of Aghlabid coins with Abbasi coins in two areas of Astaneh Shazand in Markazi province, which is located in the city of Karaj Abu Dolaf(2008 and 2010) And the ancient site of Tel Yavne near Tel Aviv, which were two areas outside the influence of the majority, Indicates political influence or trade relations with Iran and the Mediterranean fringe governments in the third century AH. How the discovery of these coins, far from the political borders of the majority, explains the political or commercial relations of this government is the main question. Our assumption is that these coins identify the friendly political relations of this government that underlie its trade relations with other governments. In this research, using library resources and archaeological studies Attempted has been made to determine and explain the manner and extent of political and trade relations of Aghlabid government with other contemporary governments.

The Abbasid political mentality introduced certain new religious methods and manifestations that support the foundations of the caliphate and governance, in addition to its reliance on some inherited aspects from the Umayyad political mentality, which aimed to consolidate power. These aspects encompass various aspects, primarily religious ones, in order to confer legitimacy and sanctity to the state administration. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Muslim rulers and law enforcers used coercion as an evidentiary method for criminal cases during the Abbasid period. These coercive procedures consisted of imprisonment, threats of beatings, and lashings. Coercive interrogations were shaped by the practices of the shurṭa (criminal magistrates and police chiefs), based on military methods, administrative precedents, and discretion, not on fiqh (Islamic substantive law). In the Abbasid era (300–500 A.H./900–1100 C.E.), government officials, such as Ibn Wahb (d. after 335/946), and even some jurists, particularly the chief judge al-Māwardī (d. 450/1058), legitimized these coercive practices by framing their use as a matter determined by authority and jurisdiction. By tracing the military-administrative genealogy of coercion, I seek to examine the methods and reasoning that constituted the criminal justice system that came to be known as siyāsa. Drawing on various administrative and literary sources, I examine a history of coercion in Islamic law beyond fiqh. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Born in the Iraqi city of Ḥire, Ḥunayn b. Ishaḳ had a Christian family of Arab descent. While the majority of the citizens of this community were attracted to trade, Ḥunayn developed an interest in medicine at a young age, which his father associated with the profession of pharmacist. This interest encouraged him to become more involved in the science of medicine. He received his first medicine education Yûhannâ b. Mâseveyh who was one of the leading scholars of his time on medicine. Huneyn was dismissed from his primary education by his tutor because of incompatibility with his tutor's temperament. Ḥunayn b. Ishaḳ travelled to the Byzantine cities to complete the preparations for the medical-scientific translations he wanted to carry out in the future. There he learned Greek well enough to translate medical works. As a qualified translator, he translated several books published in Greek into Arabic, mainly in the field of medicine. His works separate the two parts as translation and compilation. Upon hearing of Hunayn's accomplishment, the Abbasid caliph Ma'mûn elevated him to the position of the translator of Bayt al Hikma, which was the academy of science of his time. The present article summarises the methods pursued by Ḥunayn b. Ishaḳ within the framework of the principles that guided his scientific personality, as well as his achievements in the fields of medicine and translation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Women had a noticeable role in the practice of trade during this era, but it was not at the level of the role of men in trade, as senior statesmen were ministers and princes originally from prestigious commercial houses, as well as the practice of scholars and jurists to trade largely and there are many examples of that, and the reason This is due to the urge of Islam to trade, as the woman practiced the role of trade indirectly, as she made her way in the handicraft of the yarn craft, and it was one of the most trades that women practiced in this era, because it was one of the crafts, and there are many models mentioned in the search for women who They possessed money and gold, especially the women of the caliphs, to name a few. The research mentioned Mrs. Bamboo, wife of the Caliph al-Mahdi.Women participated in the trade in livestock and in the slave trade, and they have a role in building bridges, arches and digging wells to secure drinking water, charitable works and writing and calligraphy.

Appeasement by giving lands is one of the ways of important appeasement in the Abbasid era in general and in the first or second era in particular, especially with the existence of many large lands which was obtained by the Abbasids whether from the lands of fugitives or the new cities they build. And even though these divisions were at the beginning a way to bring loyalists from the abbasid family,the leaders and the poets but ultimately led to considerable economic damage when the Abbasids caliphate lost control over the fate of things , the division were lost when the authority of the state was weakened.

Memlükler döneminin büyük tarihçilerinden kabul edilen Makrîzî, Ehl-i beyt ve Hz. Ali evladı taraftarlığının yanı sıra Arap asabiyesine düşkünlüğü ve muhalif tavrıyla da tanınmaktadır. Tarihin çeşitli alanlarında eserler kaleme alan Makrîzî, bunlar arasında yer alan Kitâbü’s-Sülûk’te Abbâsî Devleti’ni de ana hatlarıyla ele almıştır. Onun buradaki tespit ve yorumları, bu devletin tarihine dair farklı bir bakışı da yansıttığından ele alınmaya değerdir. Zira Makrîzî, Abbâsî Devleti yıkıldıktan sonra bu hanedana mensup bazı kişilerin Mısır’a getirtilerek halife ilan edildiği ve toplumla ulemanın onlara büyük hürmet ve teveccüh gösterdiği bir vasatta umumun görüşlerinin dışına çıkarak Abbâsîler’i tenkit etme cesaretini gösteren ilginç bir tarihçidir. Bu çalışmada, öncelikle Makrîzî’nin hayatı, kişiliği ve tarihçiliğine temas edilmiştir. Ulema ailesine mensup olması, aldığı iyi eğitim ve tarihçilik konusundaki müktesebatı özellikle vurgulanmıştır. Yine çalışmaya konu edilen kısmın yer aldığı Kitâbü’s-Sülûk de ana hatlarıyla tanıtılmıştır. Ardından eserin Abbâsîlerle ilgili kısmı ayrıntılı bir şekilde değerlendirilmiş ve müellifin diğer risale ve biyografi eserlerinde verdiği malumatla zenginleştirilmiştir.

Husseini literature represents a great wealth that has enriched the Arab and international library, for it is truly a literature that can be classified within the fields of world literature, and the reason for this is due to the human dimension of the personality of Imam Hussein (peace be upon him). Ali al-Husayn (peace be upon him) suffered from great misfortunes, and they are many according to the nature of the Abbasid era that you studied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A close reading of two poetical sources provides new data on the reforms of the fiscal schedule of the Abbasid state in the ninth century. This paper reconstructs the calendrical complications in those Abbasid regions that followed Iranian administrative tradition and its solar calendar without intercalations. Two reforms were issued under al-Mutawakkil and al-Muʿtaḍid to correct the fiscal schedule of these regions. A panegyric by al-Buḥturī allows us to confirm and contextualize al-Mutawakkil's reform in the final years of his caliphate. A few verses by Ibn al-Muʿtazz give a significant description of the close connection between al-Muʿtaḍid's reform of the Iranian New-Year's day and the construction of his public figure.

This study aims to draw attention to an artistic phenomenon that al- Mutanabbi dealt with and disseminated in an important share of his poetry, to become part of his everyday life and the changes it witnessed. If al-Mutanabbi is well-known to people and the world, the study would stop at an issue that engaged the reader and provided him/her with enriching visual images about the poet's knowledge of stars and planets, particularly his deep awareness of their meanings and his understanding of their aesthetic dimensions and values, which are closely related to the subjects he was concerned with. In any case, this research will expose the poet's handling and use of celestial bodies in his poems as argumentative tools capable of rising above all considerations, as reflected in the terminology that informs textual structures. To this aim, the researchers explored, at the logical level, two major axes in Al-Mutanabbi's poetry: (1) the meanings of planets, stars and celestial bodies in the poetry of Al-Mutanabbi; and (2) the effect of employing the beauty of the sky and its pearls in making up the artistic image.

In 2007, near Harrogate, in North Yorkshire, a Viking-period hoard was discovered with a Carolingian silver-gilt cup. This article examines this cup, highlighting Oriental, Central Asian and classical parallels in both metal and pottery for the cup's form and decoration. The overall significance of the cup's iconography has already been thoroughly discussed by Professor Egon Wamers, who proposed that the scenes on the cup are paralleled in the early ninth-century Stuttgart Psalter. This article proposes that Oriental forms and decorative elements in metalwork were channelled to the West through diplomatic contacts and trade by way of a complex of routes by land and sea, as well as possibly by refugees from Islamic conquests.

A critical Reading in Shawqi Dhaif's The First Abbasid Era One of the conditions of scientific research is that the researcher should adhere to non –bias whether it is scientific or historical . The researcher should also be above leanings and passions. Where he has to convey the issues as they are especially the matters related to the biography of poets and men of letters . From the study, It followed that Dr.Shoaqi Dhaif in his book –the History of Arab Literature sided with some poets where he deemed them right, but that was against the principles of the scientific research.
