With the reigning of Shah Ismael in Iran, the activites of the Sufis who adhered the Safavids increased in the Ottaman empire. Later on, on account of the revealing of their threat in political and military matters, Bayazid began to act against them and attampted to prevent their migeration to Iran. In addition to defending the propaganda of the Sufis in Eastern Antalia, Shah Ismael made some attacks upon the Ottoman lands to punish the Iranian rebels who had taken refuge there. The two kings were very severe upon their religious opponents and this action had some political and economic reasons however, they sent delegates to one another's courts and they both attempted to find adherents for themselves. During the reign of Salim (I), in addition to the continuation of the propaganda by the Sufis in the Ottoman land, a number of ambitious princes also fled to Iran, these events paved the way for serious challanges between the two rulers and finally led to Chaldoran war. Events like these made troubles for the two neighboring countries till the end of Shah Ismael's rule which coincided with the ruling of Soltan Soleiman. The present study deals with the relations between the two nations duringthe regin of Shah Ismael Safavid (I), and Bayazid (II), Salim (I) and Soltan Soleiman.
