Purpose- In the month of Ramadan 2024, a series called "Assassins" was broadcast on Egyptian television, which also found a large audience in other Arab countries and even Iran. It presented a negative image of Hassan Sabah and other Iranians. Therefore, in this study, we aim to examine the reasons for the negative image of Iranians in this series.
Methodology- To do this, we examined 30 episodes of this series. By analyzing the qualitative content of the scenes and conversations of the series "Assassins", we sought to show what was the atmosphere and background of the expressions used or the images and scenes shown. Therefore, the sequences and scenes from the series "Assassins" that could better demonstrate the claims of this research were selected purposefully and not randomly. Also, part of the method of conducting this research was documentary and library. In fact, first, an attempt was made to examine and measure the accuracy and symbolism of many of the scenes represented in this series by referring to historical sources.
Findings-The findings show that many of the events and symbols shown in this series do not correspond to historical facts, and negatively represent Iran today. To answer why this is the case, four factors and background were introduced: 1- Although Iran was a Muslim country from the beginning of the Islamic era, it always defined its identity outside the caliphate and the Islamic Ummah. 2- The nationalism that has emerged in the Arab countries in the contemporary era is generally in conflict with the identity and territorial integrity of Iran (for example, in the debate over the name of the Persian Gulf or the Three Islands). 3- Geographically, Iran is strategically isolated and therefore does not have strong friends and allies among its neighbors, especially Sunni Arab countries. 4- The roots of contemporary Egyptian and Arab nationalism must be seen in their past (in accordance with the theory of ethno-symbolism).
Conclusions-Therefore, the fact that Islamic Iran was outside the caliphate and the Islamic Ummah in the past still influences Arab nationalism today, in order to make Iran its “other” and to represent a negative face of our country in cultural productions such as historical cinema
