Sumario: | The beginning of the penatration of Islam into Central Asia in VII. century caused political, military, economic, sociocultural, ethnic and religious changes in the region. In particular, the attitudes of the members of other religions toward müslim conquests, and their positions in the new social order they prefered, and the political and military policy of the new system which deals with dominance in the region at the same time, as well as the religious approaches are all the factors which affected the fate of these different groups of beliefs. Following the conquests, the Muslim administration, which was established in the region, subjected different practices depending on the conquest of the city/region by peace or war. This was also a legal necessity of Islam, the religion to which they were attached. With some exceptions, there were no interference with the religious beliefs of the people over the conquered lands in general, and they were only obliged to pay tribute (kharac) and poll tax (jizya). In addition, places where people were obeyed by peace (sulh) left their property, commercial rights and interests untouched, also their sanctuaries were untouched and they were not prevented from doing missionary work except those involved in a revolt against the rule. The study does not aim to determine the history of the Nestorians by reaching the main sources. In this context, a number of determinations about the status of Nestourians in the centuries when Islam entered the region, and its position against müslim conquests, and its place and historical development in the new order which will help us to see the effects mentioned above will be given within the scope of the article. |
