The Murshidiya was founded in the 4th century of Hijri in Kazeroon by Sheikh Abu Ishaq (d. 426 AH). This doctrine paid special attention to trade, according to the teachings, the ruling attitude of monastic centers and its strategic and geographical location of bio-ecosystem. The present article aims to examine the nature and strategy of Murshidiya’s commercial activities in the Timurid period and the contexts and consequences of the commercial life of the followers of this doctrine, taking into account their relations with the ruling political system. It tries to answer the question that what was the influence of the monastic and service network of devotees, the strategic position and business prosperity in the living areas of Murshidiya, in addition to strengthening the business beliefs among the followers of this doctrine in the pursuit of business and the prosperity of business activities. It was carried out with a descriptive-analytical approach. The result shows that due to the commercial position of Kazeroon, the intersection of commercial routes and the access to the Persian Gulf, Sheikh Abu Ishaq’s holiness, commercial teachings in Murshidiya’s teachings, providing intermediate services to merchants and travelers and needys, as well as the government's attention to doctrines in this era, have been the important factors in the prosperity of business among the followers of this doctrine and, accordingly, the Timurid era.

Most of the palaces of Iran's Islamic period belonged to later periods, and there are few remains of the palaces of the early Islamic centuries. Considering this deficiency and in the absence of archeological excavations, this research aims to explore and recognise the palaces and gardens of the early Islamic centuries of Isfahan, as one of the important centers of Iranian civilization between the first and 5th centuries of Hijri. It has been carried out by using historical sources and some contemporary researches and it tries to examine the situation of Isfahan in terms government buildings and noble palaces and gardens and identity their owners and location. The results showed that many palaces were built in Isfahan in the early Islamic centuries. They are divided into two categories: government palaces and gardens and private palaces and gardens. Since the first until third century of Hijri, government examples belonged to arab rulers and private examples mainly belonged to arab nobles. In the 4th and early 5th centuries of Hijri, with the selection of Isfahan as one of Al-e-Bouyeh's government centers, government and private palaces were mainly given to the members of this family. Although the change of the urban center of Isfahan from Jey to Yahudiyeh during the studied centuries, led to a change in the place of government examples; however, palaces and private gardens were built in both time periods, mainly on the edge of the river and the coast of Zayandehrud..

In the late third millennium BCE, the Persian Gulf and its surrounding regions—particularly Dilmun, Marḫaši, Magan, and Meluḫḫa —gained significant prominence in the royal inscriptions, economic records, and literary texts of Mesopotamia. These sources highlight the wealth and power of the region’s inhabitants and underscore the establishment of dynamic trade networks, alongside efforts to exert control over these areas. This research, conducted using a descriptive-analytical approach, aims first to outline the historical geography of the region. By analyzing historical documents alongside archaeological evidence, it explores then the factors behind the region's renown and strategic importance. The findings indicate that terrestrial trade routes became increasingly unsafe and disrupted during this period due to ongoing wars and hostilities between Mesopotamia, Elam, and their allies. Consequently, merchants shifted to maritime trade routes to access goods from the Iranian plateau and the Indus Valley. Despite the challenges and dangers of seafaring, the significant economic advantages it offered drew the interest of Sumerian and Akkadian rulers. This study concludes that the wealth and fame of these intermediary regions stemmed largely from their pivotal role in facilitating Persian Gulf trade.

A B S T R A C TAfter the fundamental modernizations in the early Pahlavi era, Iranian women’s life underwent many changes. In the meantime, the Gilan region as a connecting bridge between Iran and the northern neighboring countries became one of the important regions in the women's modernization movement. Although this process started after the establishment of girls' educational institutions, it accelerated at the beginning of Reza Shah's rule and the formation of special women's communities in Rasht, that main goal was to promote the cultural and social thoughts of the people, especially women. Among these associations, "Paik-e Sa’adat-Nesvan" magazine, with Roshanak Nodoost management, in 1921-1931 had an effective role in the cultural activities of Rasht. According to the hypothesis of rationalism and modeling of women’s life in other nations, the main goal of the Paik-e Sa’adat- Nesvan was to raise awareness and women's reforms. Now this question is raised, what effect did the Paik-e Sa’adat- Nesvan have on Rasht women’s cultural and social life? The findings of the research show that this publication aimed to create self-confidence among women, break tradition in society, encourage women to new education and fight against injustice in the patriarchal society of that period. This study analyzes and investigates in this field by using the historical and descriptive-analytical approaches. Its data is Paik-e Sa’adat-Nesvan articles, archival documents and library sources. It has focused its investigation on the indicators of education, mothers' health, women’s employment and marriage..
