“Historical thinking” in Islam is not exclusively concerned with the narrative of historical events, but also does not want to be understood merely as a narrative of meaning. It is mainly about the historical dimension and, above all, about the historical thinking of Islam. “History” is widely regarded as a central aspect of Islamic thought as a whole and brings with it a historical research area that focuses on both religious and cultural areas in a religious context: Historical thought. The historical thought of Shia Islam, which itself is in the light of the Quran, aims to show the causes of negative and positive developments, which, despite all the differences between individuals and societies, have always been the same.
