The fact that politics is a science formed in the framework of the principles of beliefs as well as the conditions and requirements of the time leads us to believe that there doesn’t exist unique treatments of this science in the outside world and that’s why we witness various approaches and theories in this regard given different conditions and schools of thought. Citing the principles and basics of the Razavi School that result from Imam Reza’s menology, the author of this article seeks to find an answer to the question, “What does politics mean in Islamic discourse?” To achieve this goal, the author introduces a theoretical framework that analyzes politics in four levels of ontology, epistemology, teleology and methodology. Analysis of Imam Reza’s menology reveals that in Razavi School of thought, politics is not the science of power, but the science of felicity. Thus, one can claim that the Islamic pattern for politics (based on Razavi School of Thought) can be an alternative theory to the current secular political science.

The relation between jurisprudence and ethics has long been a subject for contemplation for religious scholars. Also, in today’s circumstances, due to broad social and cultural changes that have taken place in the life of the mankind as well as in his lifestyle, the need to expand jurisprudence and to honor the position of ethics in social life is inevitably felt. Among the Imams (Peace Be upon Them), it seems that due to the social and cultural conditions that existed during his time, Imam Reza paid particular attention to jurisprudence and ethics and addressed their different aspects deeply. In this regard, it can be concluded that spectral attitude towards religious necessities, attention to religious causes and the ethical and human origins of religious rulings as well as emphasis on religious discipline along with other forms of addressing Sharia issues which are obvious in Imam Reza’s Hadiths are solid bases for the alliance of jurisprudence and ethics in his teachings and a thorough understanding of them can provide an efficient pattern for us to review our issues in the current world.

The issue of Imam Reza’s becoming al-Ma’mun’s successor, offered by al-Ma’mun himself, is an important historical events highly associated with issues including Imamate, sovereignty and Islamic rule and requires special discourse analysis. Al-Ma’mun’s era was a particular period in Abbasid history which experienced different political-social and cultural-religious flows and therefore requires a succession-based discourse. This article seeks to analyze the succession discourse as an effective issue in presenting viewpoints regarding “domination” and “contraption” based on “bio-power” and “bio-politics” approaches. It also evaluates al-Ma’mun’s treatment (domination approach) and Imam Reza’s treatment (contraption approach) based on this discourse and through PEDAM method.

Among the methods for explanation of religious teachings in Ahl-el-Bayt’s school of thought against the mentality of opponents were the arguments and debates conducted by Imams and their trained students along the history. With a contemplating eye, this article seeks to answer the question “what are the most important principles for debates and open-mindedness from Imam Reza’s point of view?”. Results indicate that principles for debate include thorough knowledge regarding various religions and schools of thought, expression of rational principles and criteria, liberalism and a science-oriented nature that’s familiar with various sciences while the most important principles for open-mindedness include pure intention, respect for thinkers, scientific equity and avoiding issues such as hastily judgment, myth-orientation and cult of personality, neo-phobia and neo-philia, foreignism and self-inferiority, partisan and factional interests and attachment to political governance. These functional principles can set a pattern for conducting a sound and ethics-oriented debate among thinkers from various religions across the world. This way, it’s safe to say that open-mindedness will not lead to behaviors which eventually result in a decline in human values.

History of every nation includes the lives of human beings and their relations, from artistic and religious to human ones. Iranian history includes two powerful dynasties of Timurid and Safavid which have left many trails in the biggest religious place in Iran, Imam Reza’s Holy Shrine. Porches made in Timurid and Safavid eras are among the most important architectural works in the country located in Imam Reza’s Shrine. They contain different artistic and religious inscriptions and this difference is a result of variety that existed in their separate eras. This paper seeks to review the differences and similarities of the porches made during Timurid and Safavid eras. The methodology is that the contents of Quranic inscriptions are analyzed while the benedictory ones as well as the Persian verses are compared in order to find an answer to the main question of the article. Results indicate that in Timurid era, more attention is paid to Quranic content while in Safavid, the focus is on artistic decorations.
