Tahirid (207-250 A.H) are the first government in Iran during the Islamic period, who could revive the Iranian thought and identity based on the Islamic instructions. Although Taherids were dependent on the Abbasid caliphate, they were able to gain relative independence during the rule of Abdullah bin Tahir (213-230 A. H), in Nishabur as their capital. This event was due to several factors, including the reforms in favor of the governance and the conquest of the Khawarij, followed by the economic development of Neishabur. The main purpose of this article is to investigate the factors influencing the economic prosperity of Neishabur in Tahirid era, especially during the rule of Abdullah bin Taher.This research, done through the  descriptive-analytical method, seeks to answer the question on how Tahirid have influenced the economic prosperity of Neishabur. The findings of the research illustrate that the special attention of Tahirid to the agriculture, irrigation method, systematic tax and the growth of other industries has led to the development of commerce.

The historians and biographers were of different approaches in dealing with the statement of Erhasat (unusual events simultaneous with the birth of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH)). A group of authors have mentioned only one case of Erhasat, while some others have mentioned all of them, and some have contributed these issues to the time of Prophet’s mission. This article is to investigate the news of Erhasat and the reasons for its writing or non-writing in the Islamic and Iranian historical writings until the 7th century (A. H). The findings of this research indicate that the historians with the religious bias as well as the authors of the books of Dalael al-Nabowah have stated Erhasat, while the historians with the rationalist thoughts have refrained from its statement.
