خلاصة:
The performance of Hajj by Muslims began in the late life of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his family) and continued uninterrupted until the third century AH, except for very few cases that were mostly related to natural and unexpected events. From this time onward, with the weakening of the Abbasid Caliphate and the emergence of multiple centers of power in the Islamic world, competitions for supremacy over the Two Holy Mosques, as centers of legitimacy, began, which sometimes led to the suspension of Hajj for the people of rival territories. In the period from 907 AH, when the Safavids rose to power in Iran, until the victory of the Islamic Revolution in Iran (1399 AH/ 1357 SH), Hajj was suspended in some years, mostly due to political and religious reasons. This writing aims to, after examining the general causes of the suspension of Hajj, present the years in which the performance of this divine duty was not possible for some people of Islamic lands for a period of time. The main question of the article is what the causes of the suspension of Hajj were in the period from the Safavids to the Islamic Revolution, and in which years and why Hajj was suspended.
