Abstract

Following the advent of Islam, Muslims, in addition to creating various branches of science out of necessity, gradually established other scientific and educational centers such as Dar al-Ilm, madrasas, etc., in addition to utilizing mosques. The effort to understand issues related to religion, Islam's emphasis on learning and producing science, and the interaction of different civilizations, of which the translation movement is one of its prominent symbols, provided a suitable platform for the growth and development of culture and knowledge throughout the world. In this context, the role of rulers in scientific growth and development is important. It seems that the peak of the scientific movement during the Shiite Buyid rule clearly highlights the important role of this government in strengthening the aforementioned trend, which is also considered the main issue of this research. Accordingly, the research, with a descriptive-analytical approach and relying on library resources, has attempted to examine the various functions of the Buyids in the scientific field, as well as their scientific policies and the effects of their actions on the scientific growth and prosperity of the Islamic world.
