This article attempts to trace the fundamental role of early Persian beliefs, Zoroastrians, to the decision of Ahl al-Bayt’s choice to migrate to Persia (Iran). This research is based on the fact that there are many places for pilgrimage to imams in Iran.  Specifically, this research investigates the similarity of several concepts in both religions, Zoroaster and Islam, regarding the teaching in the principle of God (Ilahiyyah), the principle of life after death (eschatology), and the principle of justice and morals of the religion embraced before Islam in Persia. Several studies have also reported on the distortions, opposition, and the consequences of encountering the two beliefs for the first time between Persian beliefs and Islamic teachings. This study employs a qualitative method with historical analysis and literature study along with relevant information of the study.  This article also uses the theory of migration and identity to see the interconnectedness of religion in the migration context. The results of this study show the factors that the Persians are interested in accepting and understanding the teachings of Islam. Those are: first, the emotional closeness of beliefs and moral values between Muslims and Zoroastrians (Magi); Second, the inclusive nature of Islam; third, the absence of racial, gender, and status discrimination in Islamic teachings. The descendants of imams Ahl al-Bayt of the Prophet Muhammad SAW continued the prophet's preaching and the Imams in expanding the spread of Islamic teachings to various regions. During this expansion process, they found Iran as the most secure, and suitable region to accept the presence and teaching of Islam especially the Shiite sect. Therefore, they decided to migrate to Iran, and until now Iran is known as a Shiite country.

Indonesia is a country that is fertile ground for drug trafficking carried out by domestic dealers and drug dealers internationally. The rise of drugs today causes victims to die every day. President Jokowi came to state that Indonesia was on the verge of a "drug emergency", because every day 50 people died. If in just one year it could reach 18,000 people die each year. Seeing these facts, of course the government appealed through the National Narcotics Agency (BNN) that this should not be left unnoticed because it would have an increasingly bad impact. This research aims to give an idea to the churches that the spread of drugs and the number of users is alarming in the midst of this nation. The method that the author uses in writing this article uses a qualitative method with a literature study approach. The role that can be demonstrated by the church in drug prevention by preaching the dangers of drugs in the pulpits, partnering with BNN institutions as the frontline in eradicating drugs, conducting visits to rehabilitation sites and optimizing the role of families as supervisors. Indonesia merupakan salah satu negara yang menjadi lahan subur dalam peredaran narkoba yang dilakukan oleh para bandar dalam negeri maupun bandar narkoba secara internasional. Maraknya narkoba di masa kini menyebabkan adanya korban yang meninggal setiap hari. Presiden Jokowi pun sampai  menyatakan bahwa Indonesia telah berada pada ambang “darurat narkoba,” dikarenakan setiap harinya meninggal 50 orang. Bila dalam setahun saja  dapat mencapai 18. 000 orang meninggal setiap tahunnya.  Melihat fakta-fakta ini, tentunya pemerintah menghimbau melalui Badan Narkotika Nasional (BNN) mengemukan hal ini tidak boleh dibiarkan begitu saja karena akan semakin berdampak buruk. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memberikan gambaran kepada gereja-gereja bahwa penyebaran narkoba serta jumlah pemakainya sudah mengkuatirkan di tengah bangsa ini. Adapun metode yang penulis gunakan dalam penulisan artikel ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi literatur. Peranan yang dapat ditunjukkan oleh gereja dalam pencegahan narkoba dengan mengkhotbahkan bahaya narkoba di mimbar-mimbar, bermitra dengan lembaga BNN sebagai garda terdepan pemberantas naskoba, mengadakan kunjungan ketempat rehabilitasi dan mengoptimalkan peran keluarga sebagai pengawas.
