Abstract

Human civilization has always generated by great migrations and exactly that is why research on migration one of the basic components of political science neglected unfortunately. In Islamic culture, especially in Shiite political culture, migration is valuable. The value of migration in the Shiite political culture is due to migration of the Prophet of Islam. Therefore, the main question is what is the roles and functions of migration in the Shiite political culture? To answer this question, were referred to first-hand and old sources of Shiite Islam. Providing a new classification, we concluded that it has important status and has five functions in Islam, including political, security, educational, social, and Preaching functions.
