چگونگی تأسیس دولت غزنویان در افغانستان

Abstract

The Ghaznavids are considered one of the most influential royal dynasties in the Islamic world and Afghanistan, who came to power in Ghazni, a strategic city in Khorasan (present-day Afghanistan), in the late fourth century AH (tenth century AD). The rise of the Ghaznavids was not only the product of military prowess, but also the result of complex political, economic, cultural, and social interactions in the region. The study of how the Ghaznavid state was established in Afghanistan has had outstanding historical, political, economic, cultural, and social significance. The main objective of this research is to analyze the political, social, and military factors that led to the formation of the Ghaznavid state in the 10th century AD. By studying reliable historical sources, the study research methods have been used in the preparation and arrangement of this article. The importance of this research lies in better understanding the political and cultural developments in Afghanistan during the Ghaznavid era, which laid the foundation for major developments in the history of the region. The research findings show that the Ghaznavids, using their geographical location and military power, were able to establish an independent monarchy and establish extensive relations with neighboring empires. The results of this research can be useful in further understanding the process of formation of Islamic states in Asia and its impact on the history of Afghanistan.
