Abstract

<p>Human civilization has always generated by great migrations and exactly that is why research on migration one of the basic components of political science neglected unfortunately. In Islamic culture, especially in Shiite political culture, migration is valuable. The value of migration in the Shiite political culture is due to migration of the Prophet of Islam. Therefore, the main question is what is the roles and functions of migration in the Shiite political culture? To answer this question, were referred to first-hand and old sources of Shiite Islam. Providing a new classification, we concluded that it has important status and has five functions in Islam, including political, security, educational, social, and Preaching functions.</p>

Highlights

  • After the migration of the prophet Mohammad the concept of migration among Muslims earned a significant position and in the political culture of the Shiites it earned a divine and spiritual place

  • To have a correct understanding of this ancient pattern there is no choice but to refer to the main Shiite Islamic jurisprudential theologian, and mystical sources and since the first-hand Shiite sources go back to the first centuries of Islam and are mostly written in Arabic it is necessary to study and delve into the ancient Islamic sources to gain a correct understanding of the concept of migration and study the ancients texts in order to understand the intention of the Islamic elites of this concept

  • Migration is an important component of value and belief system of Shiite political culture that has not been studied and considered seriously

Summary

Introduction

After the migration of the prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him) the concept of migration among Muslims earned a significant position and in the political culture of the Shiites it earned a divine and spiritual place. Researchers in this essay are making an attempt to gain and present a deep understanding of this concept in the political culture of Shiism by referring to the four books of Shia and the first-hand books on the history of Islam and the ancient Islamic texts and by applying the documentary analysis method. (cf the glorious Quran, Surah al-baqarah, 218th verse, Surah Al-Imran, 195th verse, Surah Al-Nisa, 89th and 97th and 100th verses, Surah Al-Anfal, 72th and 74th and 75th verses, Surah Al-Touba, 20th and 100th and 117th verses, Surah Al-Nahl, 41th and 110th verses, Surah Al-Hajj, 58th verse, Surah Al-Noor, 22th verse, Surah Al-Ankabut, 26th verse, Surah Al-Ahzab, 6th verse and so forth.) When we refer to the interpretations of these verses and the Islamic narrations which are being inserted following each verse from The Infallibles we get that the concept of migration in the thoughts of Shiism has five fundamental functions which we cover each one of them independently in the sections of the essay. It is worth noting that in the present subject of discussion in the academic societies and the scientific journals to the extent of the investigation which is done by the authors of this essay no independent work has been presented up to now and no scientific essay has been written and the findings of the present study are being presented for the first time
