Tarikh Islam

This study mainly aims to investigate the various aspects of the manifestations of Islamic teachings in the identity of the epic heroes of southern Iran in the historical period 1909-1920 AD, especially during the First World War. After collecting data through interviews and library sources, this article adopts a qualitative approach based on the method of "content analysis" to achieve the basic, organizational and comprehensive topics related to the research question. It deals with the effects of the teachings of Islam and the Imam Hussein Uprising manifested in the anti-colonial identity of the heroic uprising in the southern Iran. The findings of the research led to the production of 210 codes which were combined into 10 basic themes. Finally, these themes were grouped into three organizing themes: "Factors and Backgrounds", "Strategic Management of the Fighting Clergy" and "the Structure of the Principles of Fight and Behavior of the Mujahideen in the Uprising". Thus the general topic of the ‘The Manifestation of Islamic Teachings and Imam Hussein Uprising in the Identity of the Heroes of Anti-Colonial Uprising in Southern Iran” was formed. The discussion of the research findings reveals the role of Islamic teachings and the Karbala movement in creating the identity of the uprising in the south, arousing the national zeal of the brave Iranians against the occupiers and the inaccuracy of other views on the motive and nature of this uprising (opportunism, German incitement, and nationalism).
