In addition to creating extensive social and political changes, this symmetry caused cultural transformations in Islamic lands. At this time, the court of the local sultans became the center of migration of scholars and scientists, and this process continued during the period of consolidation of the power of the Mongols and the age of Ilkhans.
As informers of the secrets of the sky, astronomers found a strong and influential presence in the court of Sultans.
"Astronomical tables" or "zijs" and other astronomical tools were among the tools of astrologers to predict future events in the Islamic Middle Ages. Now, the main question is, considering the position of Astrology in the political functions of the sultans, what effect does this have on the geographical distribution of astronomical tables between the 4th and 7th centuries? In this research, the historical method has been used to describe and analyze the data. The findings of the research show that between the 4th and 7th centuries, there was a change in the location of the compilation of astronomical tables from Baghdad to other areas of Islamic lands, especially Iran and Transoxiana . Also, the construction of observatories in these areas, the writing of detailed zijs in the name of local rulers, and the writing of zijs in the Persian language are examples of the influence of the Astrological approach of the sultans.

Such an attitude towards the stars has existed among all ancient civilization, including Iran. With the advent of Islam and given the human role and status, belief in the astrological judgments was forgotten for a while. With the victory of the Ash‘arite determinist school, which was simultaneous to the Turks rising to power and after that the coming of the Mongols, who strongly believed in the impact of heaven on human destiny, once again the astrological believes and determinist ideas became widespread in Iran in the form of decision-makings and functions in various state departments and throughout the society. Using the results of the astrological judgments in military expeditions, making treaties, war and peace, coronation, hunting, travelling, answer to prayer, and treatment of illnesses are but some examples of the impact of these beliefs in the life of the Muslims in mid...
