Investigating the influential factors in Islamic civilization is important. The people of different cities, including Qom, as one of the important Shiite religious cities, have been influential in the flourishing of Islamic civilization. This research using the descriptive-analytical method based on the data of the most authentic narrative and historical, geographical and royal books, seeks to answer the question that what effects did Qom have on Islamic civilization from the second to the fourth century Hijri? The findings show that the people of Qom, both local natives and Arab Shiite Ash'aris, using efficient manpower and a coherent plan, in a short period of time, were able to have an impact on Islamic civilization by self-sufficient in various political, economic, commercial, industrial, agricultural, animal husbandry, judicial, military, scientific, architectural and art sectors, exporting high-quality goods to Islamic countries, providing efficient political force for other cities, sending merchants and traders to different Islamic cities, ensuring the security of transportation routes, and inventing and transferring the art and architecture style to other Islamic cities.

In the study of the history of Islamic civilization and the history of Iranian cities, Maragha's place as a historical city has not been adequately explained from the point of view of civilization. Therefore, in this historical research with a civilizational approach in the field of local history studies, Maragha's link with Islamic civilization has been analyzed and explained. According to the findings of this study, Maragha was not considered a center of civilization until the middle of the 7th century AH, despite its importance in historical developments. But after Baghdad collapse by Mongols, this city became a center of science in the Islamic world. In the second half of the 7th century after Hijrah, the establishment of the observatory complex and the gathering of a large number of prominent scholars significantly changed the cultural-civilized image of Maragha. The observational-scientific activities, outstanding scientific works such as Zidj-i Ilkhani, novel astronomical theories and new scientific texts during this period made Maragha as one of the scientific-civilizational centers of the Islamic world. As a result of such achievements, the honorable titles of "Maragha School" and "Maragha Translation School" have been given to this city by science scholars, which has brought for it a permanent reputation in the history of science on a global scale.
