Seyyed Zahirudin Marashi’s Historiographical Contradictions And Mistakes In the Religious Paradigm of Shiite

Local historiography is a style of historiography to which historians pay special attention. Local historiography has local aspects and examines the near and distant past of the relevant geographical area with a detailed and more accurate look. In Mazandaran, various local histories have been written, including Ibn Esfandyar’s »History of tabarestan«, Oliaollah Amoli’s »History of Royan«, and Seyyed Zahirudin Marashi’s »History of TAbarestan, Royan, and Mazandaran« and »History of Gilan and Dilmestan«. A historiographer reflects the type of his attitude and thought, and that of a nation towards his surroundings and the surrounding society, and no doubt there is a direct connection between the life of a historiographer and his historiography.The main issue of the present study is what factors have caused Seyyed Zahirudin Marashi’s contradictions and mistakes in historiography. It seems that Marashi’s contradictions and mistakes in explaining the events have been influenced by the duality of place and religion (Shia of the Twelve Imams). The research method in this article is historical (inductive) and its writing and compilation method is descriptive-analytical. The Extraction of information and data has been done in the form of libraries and documents. This article tries to take a religious (Shiite) approach to explain the historiography of Seyyed Zahirudin Marashi .
