The Historical, Ideological, and Political Dimensions of the Iranian Revolution 1981 Iran Persia Middle East

Muhammed Sürûr bin Naif Zeynelabidin – Ve Câe Devrü'l-Mecûs – Müellif Baskısı Arabic Edition (1981)

Description:

This Arabic edition of Ve Câe Devrü'l-Mecûs by Muhammed Sürûr bin Naif Zeynelabidin was published in 1981 as a private author edition (Müellif Baskısı). Written in Arabic, the book is one of the most radical and controversial Sunni critiques directed against the 1979 Iranian Islamic Revolution and the political-religious ideology established under Ruhollah Khomeini.

The work argues that the Iranian Revolution was not a universal Islamic movement as publicly presented, but rather a revival of Persian nationalism and Safavid-era sectarian ideology under a revolutionary and Shiite framework. The author interprets the post-revolutionary Iranian state as a political and theological challenge to the Sunni Arab world and strongly criticizes the ideological foundations of the new regime.

Themes such as sectarian conflict, political Islam, revolutionary ideology, Persian nationalism, regional influence, and theological division appear throughout the volume. Particular attention is given to Sunni-Shiite doctrinal differences and the author’s claims regarding Iran’s geopolitical ambitions in the Middle East and Gulf region following the revolution.

Historically, the book reflects the intense ideological tensions that emerged across the Islamic world after 1979 and stands as an important example of early anti-Iranian revolutionary literature written from a Sunni-Arab political and religious perspective.
