al- Mustafa al- AlamiyahJournal Article20210406Martin Lings is one of the few orientalists who converted from Christianity to Islam. One of his most important works is a book titled: Muhammad: His Life Based On the Earliest In this book, he considered the life of the great prophet and presented a relatively comprehensive report in this regard. This book has detailed the biographies of some famous Companions along with their roles and positions. There are many methodological and content based reflections about the book, one of which is the role taken by Ali (A.S) in the most important battles of the Prophetic era. The present research has reviewed this part of the book relying on the historical analysis method of research. The findings of the research clarify that Martin Lings has practically distanced himself from the principles and criteria of historical research due to selecting some reports without logic, not considering all the available evidence and sources, ignoring some reports and overstating other reports, and finally imposing his own assumptions on history. He has consequently presented an imperfect account on the role of Ali (A.S) in these battles.Martin Lings is one of the few orientalists who converted from Christianity to Islam.

One of the prominent members of this council was the holiness, Ali (A.S), whose opinion had a decisive influence on the decision of the council. This article seeks to present a model to illuminate the decision-making of Imam Ali (A.S) in the council of six people on the basis of Simon's decision-making theory by taking advantage of the descriptive-analytical method. The findings of this research clarify that Ali (A.S) made a decision after being in a situation of coercion and noticing the danger of division of Muslims, while arguing for their rightness in succession and also avoiding accusations of differences. Explaining the efficiency of His decision and the degree of its acceptance by the government officials is another part of this article.After the death of the second caliph and based on his previous suggestion, the selection of caliph was entrusted to a six-member council.

Considering the difference in the elements of legitimacy in different governments of Iran before Islam, the present research took advantage of the comparative method of research and relied on the Persian and Arabic sources of the Islamic period including the Khoday Namag or kings’ books and other written sources left from the Sassanid period to compare these elements in Sassanid and Parthian eras.

At the beginning, they were able to overthrow the Umayyads and gain the government by relying on the legitimacy of their relative connection with the Prophet (PBUH). Relying on the historical data collected in a library method, this research aims to show how the change in the political alignment of the opponents of Abbasids, caused them to establish and promote the validity of their government by changing the sources they rely on for political legitimacy. Their initial association with the theory of Shi'ite legitimacy and then taking an angle with it in dealing with the new enemies, shows that the Abbasids considered their ultimate goal - preserving power - superior to any other thought and motive. The findings of this research reveal that the change in the sources of legitimacy had a direct relationship with the political alignments of the Abbasid enemies until the end of Ma'mun's caliphate. As far as possible, the information about their political enemies can be obtained from the sources used by them to instill legitimacy.Abbasids - the second dominant dynasty in the history of Islam - from the beginning of the political struggle against Umayyads to the later periods of their political life, have always relied on sources to prove their political legitimacy.

The result of the research indicates that Javvani was one of the historians and writers of the Shia Companions, and his most important motivation in writing the death of the Abi Talib family, especially the historical news of Sahib Fakh and Yahya Ibn e- Abdullah, was introducing their spiritual, political, and social face in the political and social conditions of his era as well as the corruption of the government and reemphasizing the fight against oppression until martyrdom on the one hand, and on the other hand, the incitement of Zaidi and Alawites who had the idea of an armed uprising.Ali Ibn e- Ibrahim Alavi Javvani (died in the early 4th century) is of the Shiite historians and the author of the books of Akhbar Sahib Fakh and Yahya Ibn e- Abdullah.
