  During different historical periods, a significant number of elements and components of the mosque, such as the minaret with different appearances and bodies, have been displayed and used in mosques and it seems that it has become an integral part of the mosque over time. Architects, researchers and scholars have expressed a variety of analyzes, theories and interpretations with different views on the position of the minaret in the architecture of mosques. However, there is no mention of the attitude of the Twelver Shiite jurisprudence regarding the position of the minaret in the architecture of mosques, and this issue is still facing ambiguous points. While the minaret has been used in mosques for centuries, some scholars consider single-minaret mosques as a symbol of Sunnis and mosques with two minarets as a symbol of the Shiite religion. This research tries to study the necessity of the minaret in the architecture of mosques in the attitude of Shiite jurisprudence. The rules of Shiite jurisprudence of the Twelve Imams are obtained through research in the Qur’an, Sunnah, consensus and reasoning. Since it is not possible to study all the sources mentioned in this research, studying the Qur’an and the consensus will be sufficient. The present research is fundamental in terms of subject matter and is considered qualitative from the perspective of research method. The data collection method of the research is through library and data analysis method is of content analysis type. The results of this study show the commonalities and differences in the attitude of the Qur’an and consensus on the necessity of requiring a minaret in mosques. According to the analysis, interpretation and elaboration of verses 17 and 18 of Surah Tawbah (Quran) and analyzing the content of the attitude of contemporary and non-contemporary (i.e. who are not at the same time as contemporary) authorities and jurists of the Shiite religion (consensus) regarding the necessity of minaret in the architecture of mosques, In general, it can be said that from the viewpoint of the Qur’an and non-contemporary jurists, the minaret does not have the necessary harmony with the architecture of mosques. In contemporary jurists’ attitude, there is nothing wrong with the minaret in mosques; but the minarets or tall minarets in the mosques are considered disapproved. Manuscript profile

  Minarets are one of the key elements of Islamic Architecture and especially in Iran there are valuable examples of them in the Razi style. After The spread of Islam, religious ideas have been influential in the construction and decoration of minarets and Used in the concepts of their inscriptions. In the meantime, the Quranic inscriptions on these minarets can be one of the important sources for understanding and examining the religious and belief views of people and architects as well as their function; a subject that has been paid less attention to in the Recognition and verification of architectural works function. The following study tries to investigate the concepts used in them, while identifying Quranic Ayah (verses), by examining the inscriptions of Razi style minarets in Iran. Also, the relationship between the concepts or themes of the Qur'anic verses in the inscriptions of the Razi style minarets and their function will be the main question of the upcoming research. In this study, in addition to identifying Razi style minarets and their classification, the main goal of the article is to analyze the themes of Quranic inscriptions to Recognition and verification their usage. The upcoming research tries to extract, categorize and analyze the most used concepts in these verses. These analyzes are important to read the Function of minarets. To achieve this goal, the Quranic inscriptions of Razi style minarets, which are mostly Seljuk, have been identified in the library and field studies, and some of the mentioned minarets have been visited to verify the text of the inscription. After documenting the inscriptions and identifying their verses, the texts of the verses were analyzed using the interpretation-analytical approach (content analysis). Based on the studies, the repetition of the concepts of "expressing the attributes of those who invite to God", "monotheism" and "expressing the attributes of God" in the verses of the minaret inscriptions is significant. As a result, the verses of these inscriptions mostly deal with the two general issues of "sign" and "guidance", according to which the function of the minaret can be considered as "Media and sign for guidance".
