The Political Requirements of the Caliphs of the First Abbasid Era Regarding Paying Attention to the Scientific Community
Given the constructive role of thinkers and the diversity of their functions in societies, the study of the relationship between government institutions and the scientific class is considered as an important historical study. Of course, the confrontation of the rulers with the ups and downs of their time has a major role in the historical direction of the issue. Now, by examining some political requirements, the government reasons that determined the Abbasid caliphs to pay attention to the classes of scholars and intellectuals are pointed out. The results showed that the caliphs' need for funding for Baghdad, their quest for legitimacy, their interest in engaging with Western neighbors, turning to the Ancient East, keeping pace with the Sunni majorities, and curbing Shiite control were among the reasons for the caliphate's attention to the society’s elites. Also, alignment with pro-government groups and the control of minorities as opposed to the government has intensified this attention.
