Abstract
Utbi, an Iranian-Arabic historian of the fifth century, played an important role in shedding light on the developments in eastern Iran, and his history has become a model for literary and historical studies. An analytical method to elucidate the interaction of insights and methods in literary historiography.
Utbi intellectual system is based on the four components of monarchism, elitism, criticism and Shari'a, which has enabled him to descriptively and analytically examine the decline of the governments of eastern Iran and the rise of the Ghaznavids and the role of elite thought and behavior in these processes. The components of the intellectual system have not been successful, and he has not dealt with a historical narrative with a coherent plan, he has written a valuable history with unique data about eastern Iran that has been cited by later historians..
