Abstract

Following the conquest of Iran by Muslims and the conversion of the majority of Iranians to Islam, in the first two centuries AH, The Iranian culture underwent changes. Despite this significant part of the pre-Islamic Iranian customs and traditions, it maintained its life alongside new religious values. Political and religious developments in Iran caused some of these traditions to be forgotten or discarded. However, two centuries after the conquest of Iran and following the establishment of local governments, efforts were made to restore and expand ancient traditions. Al-Buwayh, meanwhile, was one of the leading figures in the field, and the rulers of this local Iranian dynasty took fundamental steps to preserve and revive national customs and rituals. This study seeks to answer the question of what was the purpose of Al-Buwayh in reviving the culture of ancient Iran? The results of the study show that by paying attention to some of the cultural and political elements of ancient Iran, the rulers of Al-Buwayh sought to gain legitimacy and be better accepted by the people. In this study, an attempt was made to extract historical information and data from first-hand sources and using a historical approach in a descriptive-analytical way to pay attention to some of the efforts of Al-Buwayh rulers in paying attention to the culture of ancient Iran.
