Abstract: (2377 Views) |
However in the time of second Abbasid Caliphate, government power had been decreased but rigor and pressure on the Shiites, as the opposites of the rule continued just like before. Meanwhile some important and influential families in Abbasid court had Shiite tendencies. Nowbakhti family was one of these families with high scientific and social level and some members among Emamiye and Imams (PBUT) companions.
This article tries to identify important members of Nowbakhti family and their works and interactions with Abbasid court and court men from one aspect and also Shiite leaders and Shiite people from another aspect. On his way to do this, the writer reloads ancient historical documents and uses a descriptive-definitive methomethod.
With the help of Forat House and by saving their political - social position and status, Nowbakhti family made their way to the court and possessed significant positions. They always were ready to face with opponents and heretics. With tact and skill and caution, dissimulation and gaining caliphate trust they tried to expand Shiism and reduce the pressure on Shiites and stabilize and expand it, at that period of time. Identifying the goals and results of these interactive relationships is the main target of this essay.
