Meaning and definition of safavids (1501-1722 a.d.) :
A dynasty that ruled Iran from 1501 A.D. until 1722 A.D. They were the descendants of the Sufi Shaykh Safy al-Din Ishaq (1252-1334 A.D.) who founded his tariqa in his hometown Ardabil in 1300 A.D. It was strictly Sunni in orientation but by the mid fifteenth century A.D. it became Shi‘i. At the age of twelve Shaykh Safy’s grandson Isma‘il invaded Iran. Isma‘il was full of passion and vigor and this was how he marched into Tabriz in 1501 A.D. after the Aq Qoyunlu fled in fear of his advances. Few years later he was ruling from Iraq to Uzbekistan. After his death in 1524 A.D. no other Safavid was as passionate or charismatic. Tabriz was the first capital, Qazvin the second and then later in 1598 A.D. Shah Abbas made Isfahan the capital. The last Safavid Shah was Sultan Husayn who was overthrown in 1722 A.D. by the Afghan Ghazali tribe. The Safavids were amongst the important patrons of Islamic art, however they are not one of the peaks. The Maydan-i Shah in Isfahan represents the typical Safavid style of architecture, which was to a great degree influenced by the Timurids but never reached its excellence.
