According to the tenets of Shīʿite jurists, any interaction strengthening the authoritarian rulers is illegitimate and unlawful. Based on historical reports, Shīʿite jurists embarked on interacting with the Buyid dynasty. Regarding the fact that an accurate understanding of historical events is not feasible without analytical investigation and explanation of social factors, this article elaborates on the social reasons behind the interaction of Shīʿite jurists with the Buyid dynasty. The question raised in this study is: What were the social reasons behind the interaction and cooperation of Shīʿite jurists with the Buyid dynasty Amirs? It is hypothesized that were several reasons including Islam's emphasis on interaction and cooperation, realization of religious goals, preventing Shīʿites from being isolated, excluded, and suppressed in society, etc. that gave rise to the interaction of Shīʿite jurists with the Buyid dynasty. On the other hand, interaction and cooperation as an ethical value and a behavior style are of high importance in the Islamic mindset and are considered as one of the principles of the Buyid dynasty and characteristics. Abiding by this moral value instigated the Buyid dynasty's interaction with the Shīʿite jurists who, in turn, started interacting with Buyid as well. This research investigates the social reasons why Shīʿite jurists interacted with the Buyid dynasty, using the analytical-historical method. |
