One of the most important consequences of the invasion and conquest of Iran by the Mongols in the 7th century of Hijri (13 AD) was the drastic population fluctuations in different states. In the meantime, Shiraz, as the capital of Pars state under the command of Atabakan Fars, despite the lack of political unity and internal division, was able to escape the Mongol invasion and its consequences. This article aimed to investigate the population structure and the factors affecting the growth and decline of the Shiraz population in a descriptive and analytical method based on library and field studies of cemeteries. The findings of this study show that until the time of Atabak Abu Bakr, Shiraz witnessed an increase in population due to the influx of immigrants from big cities affected by Mongol attacks and internal security. But wars and insecurity that occurred after Atabak Abu Bakr, the attacks of Nekodrian (677 and 680 AH), famine (680 AH), and infectious diseases (698 AH), etc. reduced the population of Shiraz and the population began to decline. However, it was crowded and prosperous during the time of Abu Ishaq Inju (752-725) and Ibn Battuta Shiraz.

The Mu'tazilite theological school is one of the most important Islamic theological and intellectual schools that had many supporters in the Islamic world from the second to the fifth century AH. This school of thought was founded in the early second century AH by Wasel ibn Atta (d. 131 AH) in Basra and quickly spread to other Islamic lands. Khuzestan was also affected by this current of thought very soon due to its geographical connection to Basra; According to historical and geographical sources, the prevalence of this school in Khuzestan has been more than any other land. This research intends to study and explain the reasons for the growth and expansion of this theological school in Khuzestan and its historical ups and downs in this region with an analytical look. The main question of the present study is what factors led to the growth and expansion of Etezali ideas in Khuzestan? Findings show that factors such as the geographical and cultural affiliation of Khuzestan to the origin of the Mu'tazilites (Basra), the religious diversity of Khuzestan and the general desire of its people - including properties and the general public - for theological discussions led to the expansion of the Mu'tazilites in Khuzestan.

The weakness of the Abbasid Caliphate and the existence of the internal disputes of Al-e Buyeh dynasty led to the establishment of local rulers in the western Iran. The Bani ‘Anāz family were local Kurds who had ruled over a vast areas of the western Iran the years between 1381 and 511 (AH). The problem of the current study is the way of Bani ‘Anāz rule formation, its expansion, and its relations with the great Seljuk reign.
The findings of the current study suggest that Abolfath and Abolshuk, the first two Bani ‘Anāz Amirs, by establishing and stabilizing the said rule played a significant role in political changes. But the existence of the power gap between the members of the Bani ‘Anāz rule caused this family became highly vulnerable against the attacks of Uzbek Turkmen. Thus, the Seljuks by adopting aggressive policy and by benefiting from internal disputes of the Bani ‘Anāz reign, rendered the said dynasty submissive. For these reasons, the Bani ‘Anāz rule, through joining into the Seljuk’s power, was collapsed in 511.
The current paper, through application of the analytic-descriptive method and library documentations as well as by emphasizing on the primary resources, attempts to analyze the Bani ‘Anāz ruling acts and its relation with the Seljuks.
