Sistan and Makran were in the southeast of the lands of the Eastern Caliphate from the 3rd to 6th centuries AH and were much larger in terms of territory than today. At the beginning of the 3rd century AH, Sistan came under the control of the Taherids. In the middle of the 3rd century, the Saffarids, centered in Sistan, ruled over large parts of Iran. With the rise of the Samanids, Ghaznavid and Seljuk Turks, their efforts to dominate Sistan and Makran began. the Buyids conquered the western regions of Makran in the 4th century. Such efforts to dominate Sistan and Makoran and the resistance of the surviving Saffarid sultans in Sistan and the rulers of Makoran for their political independence had created complex political relations in the region. Therefore, it is worth investigating the political relations between Makoran and Sistan during this period. After the Saffarids came to power in Sistan, the Sistan sultans sought to dominate Makran, but the Makran rulers tried to govern this region themselves. Many of the Turks' invasions of Makran were carried out through Sistan, and sometimes some rulers of Sistan sought refuge in Makran as a result of pressure from the invading tribes or internal divisions. This research has been conducted in a descriptive-analytical manner. The achievement of this research is to get to know the useful experiences of relations between Sistan and Makoran from the 3rd to the 6th century.
