Investigating the Causes of Shia clergymen Entry to the Safavi government

The Establishment of safavi government in Iran provided the suitable condition for immigration of Shi'a scholars that had the difficult situation and suffocation outside of Iran, by recognizing the Shia religion as the
official religion in Iran and the official invitation of the kings from clergymen to immigrate to Iran. Therefore, the greatest immigration and clergymen's collaboration with the kings was happened during this period of
time. The collaboration of the Ulema with the safavi court led to the creation of this issue " Permission and lack of permission to cooperate with the government based on shias principles". The results of the research show that the Shiite Ulema cooperated with the safavi government, based on the necessity of jurisprudence and religious benefits because by providing this opportunity, they would have the ability to revive, implement and persuade the most important political, scientific, cultural and ideological foundations of Shi'a which of course, This cooperation has never been a sign of safavi regime legitimization by Ulema. Therefore, the reason of ulama's collaboration has been the continuation and establishment of Shiite beliefs and teachings. This study first deals with the issue of clergymen's cooperation and non-cooperation with safavi government based on Shi'i jurisprudence; Through this issue, we can clarify the reasons of ulama's collaboration with the government. In the following, the reasons are expressed in three axes and the general approach of political causes, culturalscientific causes, and ideological causes. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to investigate the causes of the entrance of the ulama to the court and to cooperate with the Safavi government, relying on the sources and in a descriptive-analytical manner.
