Abstract
The ideological structure of the Arabian Peninsula gradually underwent a fundamental change with the advent of Islam, followed by a change in the structure of power, and over time, Islam and Muslims became the greatest religious and secular power there. Other religions were formulated based on religious teachings, including Christians, and this provided the basis for the influence of Christians in the political structure of Muslims. In the Umayyad era, from this perspective, after expanding the conceptual space of the subject and expressing its problematic aspect, it will examine the various dimensions and aspects of the relationship between Muslims and Christians. According to the thematic documents presented in this research, the research method is historical-documentary. The findings of this study indicate that, firstly, the relations between Muslims and Christians from the beginning of Islam to the time of the Rashidun Caliphs include a range of interactive and confrontational relations in a way that is theological and in the form of world power in the form of the Eastern Roman Empire. It was confrontational, but in the form of transferring experiences between the two, it took on an interactive mode. Encouraged and thus provided the grounds for their influence in the power structure.
