Abstract

With the establishment of the foundations of the Fatimid Caliphate in Egypt (362 AH), their advance to the east, which coincided with the third period of the Abbasid Caliphate (337-447 AH), began. In this era, by sending his da'is to the island of Iraq, he tried his best to promote the Ismaili religion and to attract the ideological-political interests of the Iraqi Shiites, especially in Baghdad. The propaganda attack of the da'is coincided with the life of Sharif Morteza, who not only became the leader of the Baghdad school after his teacher, Sheikh Mofid, but also held the positions of niqab, Hajj emirate and court of oppression for thirty years.
Nevertheless, a question worth asking is: How did Sharif Morteza, as the second leader of the Baghdad school, react to the propaganda attacks of the Fatimid prayers? The findings of this article are that on the one hand, by persuading his brother to sign the Charter of Al-Qadir, with the help of the reflection and social impact of Razi and his signature on the Shiite community, and on the other hand, the scholarly denial and critique of Ismaili beliefs succeeded To break the propaganda atmosphere of the Fatimids on the mentality of the Shiites of Iraq, especially Baghdad, and to make them more and more aware of the line of belief - political authority of the Imami jurists under the leadership of Sheikh Mufid - which was based on accepting the Imamate of Hazrat Sahib al-Amr Sharif Morteza tried to reduce the Shiite political-religious tendency to the Fatimids according to his ability and possibilities, to pass the Shiite community through this crisis. This article tries to study Sharif Morteza's reaction to the propaganda attacks of the Fatimid prayers in a descriptive-analytical way.
