The 3rd and 4th centuries of Hijri were the era of expansion of the Shiites in the lands under the rule of the Abbasid Caliphate, and the eastern lands of this Caliphate, i.e. cultural Iran, also witnessed many changes during this period, such as the formation of the Alawite governments of Tabaristan and Al-Buyeh, uprisings and movements, as well as the Ismaili da'wah and the spread of Imamiyya ideas. It has been in line with the generalization and expansion of Shi'ism. However, from the fourth century onwards, the opportunity for the continuation of this dynamic and the struggle of the Shiites and their roles in the social and political atmosphere of Iran was stopped to such an extent that the reason for this stop as a research issue, the necessity of studying the obstacles in front of this process and the lack of continuity of these currents. explores. The investigation of the obstacles on the way to the expansion of Shiism in this research is done based on the framework of Hager Strand's diffusion theory in order to obtain qualitative and quantitative information in this regard and to categorize the most influential ones in this historical expansion.

As it stands today, medical science did not grow and develop overnight. This science has been formed due to the efforts of millions of people throughout the history of mankind. Meanwhile, the fact is that one of the standard bearers of this sacred responsibility (medical sciences) are Muslims. Muslims, during the Abbasid era, have developed this science more than any other civilization. Therefore, in this article, an attempt has been made to highlight the fact that the Renaissance of Europe is partly indebted to the inventions and discoveries of Islamic medicine of the Abbasid period, and the ways of transferring this science from the East to the West are documentedIn the upcoming research, in order to explain and analyze the progress of medical knowledge in the Abbasid era and the ways of its transfer to the West, the "diffusion theory" is used as the theoretical framework of the work. Based on this, the influential origin in the field of medical knowledge of the Islamic world in the Abbasid era is taken into account, and the influential destination is the Western civilization, and the ways and channels of transmission are mentioned along with its obstacles. The findings of the research show that medical knowledge was one of the first sciences that the Islamic world learned based on the medical data of Iran, India and Greece, and then developed it in the best possible way and spread it to other societies.

Occurrence of the Islamic revolution in Bahman 1357 made the Islamic Republic of Iran, the center of spreading revolution. That it could directly and indirectly influence the Islamic movements and even independence movements in the region and the world in a short period of time. This study intends to examine the reflection of Islamic Revolution on Armenia, based on diffusion theory. This articles has tried to study diffusion theory, using descriptive-analytical method and data collection by documentary and library methods, and also address the question of has Islamic revolution, as the center of spread in the area, influenced Armenia_ non-Muslim neighboring country? And if so, how and to what extant was this effect? Results show that Islamic Revolution, in the first decade of Revolution and before the collapse of the former Soviet Union, had indirect positive impacts on increasing the Armenians' spirit of independence. But after the collapse of the former Soviet Union and independence of Armenia, the impact of Islamic Revolution diminished due to the existence of various obstacles such as the predominance of Christianity, internal problems, presence and competition of regional and trans-regional countries in Armenia.

The main question of this research can be asked as to what effects the Islamic Revolution of Iran had on the spread of Shiism in Indonesia? Accordingly, using a descriptive-analytical research method based on diffusion theory with a brief explanation of the historical background of the origin of Shiites in Indonesia, introduction of Shiites-related organizations and institutes, the situation of the Shiites in Indonesia, proponents of the Shiite religion and their special relationships among themselves and  others and the effect of one of the important events of the twentieth century, the victory of Islamic Revolution of Iran, on the spread and promotion of Shiite thinking in Indonesia, are studied. Results show that after the victory of Islamic Revolution, significant religious enthusiasm among Shiites and adherents to this religion were observed that led to the spread of Shiite literature. With these changes, institutions based on Shiite thought, such as Islamic schools, publishers and forums, were on the rise. There for, Islamic Revolution of Iran had significant impacts on the Shiites' cultural, social and political spread and influence in Indonesia by: 1.attracting Indonesian students in the seminary of Qom 2.establishment of Shiite affiliated institutions and organizations 3.Making the role of religious scholars, especially imitators, more important 4.the rise of Shiites and the encouragement of Shiite jurisprudence activities in Indonesia.

The Achaemenid architecture is famous for its columned halls; however such halls were common prior to the Achaemenid Period in Iran. Buildings with columned halls dated to Median Period were discovered in Nush-i Jan and Godin. Similar buildings were also present in Baba Jan, Ziwiye, Hasanlu, Kordlar and Bastam as well. Among these buildings, the oldest example of columned hall belongs to Hasanlu, where seven buildings including columned hall were constructed in three successive periods of Hasanlu V, IVc and IVb, dated to ca. 1250-800 B.C. The main common characteristic of these buildings is their central part, which was constructed in form of a columned hall, along with other common components and elements, such as: a portico and an anteroom in entrance, a stairway passed around a central column on a side of the anteroom, ancillary rooms situated along the sides of the hall, benches constructed on sides of the hall, columns added at the sides of the hall, raised hearth in the center of the hall, and a platform opposite the entrance of the hall. Use of these common characteristics in Hasanlu continued for about four centuries and led to formation of a particular architectural tradition. In regards to the origin and the prototype of this architectural style, as well as its continuity and subsequent changes until the Achaemenid Period, different notions were brought up. Some scholars have sought the origin of this style out of the Iranian plateau. Others have considered it as a linear or multilinear evolution. Most of these opinions are based on the basis of the theory of diffusion. The present essay brings up a different opinion about the formation of this architectural style in Hasanlu. On the basis of this view, the construction of columned halls can be taken as an internal innovation in indigenous architecture of Hasanlu, considering their common features with other contemporary buildings without a columned hall in Hasanlu.Abstract

Diffusion theory is one of the theories that can explain the causes of the spread of most political, social, agricultural and technological revolutions based on their components. In Iran, this theory is further evaluated in the basis of how the Islamic Revolution influences Muslim countries, but is not included in the field of medicine. The purpose of this descriptive-analytic paper, which is based on library resources and valid websites, is to answer this question: Has diffusion theory the power of explaining how the spread of modern medicine is in Iran during Qajar era? And if so, how will it be explained? To answer the question, this hypothesis was presented: since diffusion theory has so far been able to expose the reasons for the spread of most revolutions within the framework of its components, it can justify medical developments in Iran. Further, factors such as: foreign security, sending students abroad, health and medical institutions, the establishment of educational institutions, vaccinations, quarantines and some other factors in the form of three types of diffusion relocation, hierarchical, and contagious, and factors such as: people with disabilities, lack of funds, poverty, uncertainty for foreigners and some other factors were considered as barriers within the framework of the above-mentioned theory. The result of this hypothesis is confirmed.
