Iran and Yemen; Study the Reflection of the Islamic Revolution of Iran on Yemen and Its Results

The Islamic Revolution of Iran took place in 1789 and was the first successful revolution inspired by Islam. Undoubtedly, this revolution had repercussions on the peripheral and semi-peripheral countries of Iran, and among the semi-peripheral countries of Iran, which was affected by the Iranian revolution, was Yemen. In the following years, with the beginning of the Arab Spring (Islamic Awakening), this country underwent changes and protest movements were formed in it, the content of which was very close to the foundations of the Islamic Revolution of Iran in 1789. These protests and anti-government movements in Yemen at the time led to the revolution and ultimately to the victory of the Yemeni Houthis and the Ansarullah movement. But what could be the consequences of this event in Yemen? Do these results include the system of the Islamic Republic of Iran? In fact, the main question of this research is what are the results of the reflection of the Islamic Revolution of Iran on Yemen. Therefore, this study seeks to first examine the reflection of the Islamic Revolution in Yemen and then explain its results. The method of the present research is qualitative and based on descriptive-analytical and the method of collecting data and information is based on documentary studies, libraries and reputable research and extension science journals and various statistics.


Introduction
The outbreak of the Islamic Revolution in 1979 in Iran became the source of dramatic changes in the world, including the Islamic world. Due to its religious and cultural face, this revolution was able to break even the boundaries of the theories of the revolution, and experts in the discussion of the revolution, including Ms. Teda Skocpol, moderated their theories (Skocpol, 1982). Some people, including Robin Wright, even refer to it as the Great Revolution (Wright, 2000). The first and most important factor that led to the Iranian Revolution being considered as the Islamic Revolution was the Islamic ideology and its spiritual and non-spiritual leaders who proposed it. Thus, this revolution was the first example of a successful revolution inspired by Islam (Esposito, 2014). The Islamic Revolution had a great impact on attitudes, ideas, actions and behaviors in the region and the world, and undoubtedly had consequences and repercussions that affected the countries around and semi-surrounding Iran. Yemen is one of the most important semiperipheral countries in Iran that was affected by the Islamic Revolution of Iran. This country, which is located in the south of the Arabian Peninsula, has a special and strategic position in terms of history, culture, geopolitics, etc. Between 30 and 35% of the country's population is In sum, this theory explains the spread of any kind of intellectual or physical innovation; Such as the justification for the dominance of shorts or shorts. It was first introduced to the world in the spring of 1970 in Paris and in the autumn of the same year quickly spread from Sydney boutiques in Australia to San Francisco in the United States. Therefore, this theory has the power to explain any mental or physical innovation. Explains the reason for its spread, the manner of its spread and its routes and channels of distribution, as well as the reasons for its cessation and the reasons for its re-expansion, as well as the stability of some waves and the decline of others (Barzegar, 2012). In general, dissemination is a process according to which a cultural matter (an institution or a technical invention, etc.) that is the hallmark of one society, is borrowed in another society and accepted by that society (Barzegar, 2012). Distribution includes types such as displacement, contagion, and hierarchy; In hierarchical distribution, phenomena are transmitted and propagated through a regular sequence of categories and classes. Ideas spread from person to person or from one urban center to another (Barzegar, 2012).  (Barzegar, 2012) In broadcasting, the general spread of ideas takes place without regard to hierarchy; Figure 2. Infectious broadcast Source: (Barzegar, 2012) In fact, this type of broadcasting is opposed to hierarchical broadcasting. This type of broadcast is strongly influenced by distance. There are two types of hierarchical and contagious. The type of broadcasts that are expansion type with high propagation speed (Barzegar, 2012). In displacement broadcasting, the prerequisite for broadcasting is an innovation or an element of culture, the transmission of an individual or group carrying an idea. Displacement displacement occurs when individuals or groups with a specific idea physically move from place to place. In this way, innovations and innovations are spread in the new land; Examples include the spread of religions with the dispatch of missionaries, the colonization of Europeans from 1500 to 1950, and the emigration of European Christians to the United States (Jordan and Rowntree, 2001). In a general and brief category, the factors of broadcast theory can be presented as follows: Of course, other factors can also be highlighted in this theory, such as: propagation speed and factors affecting it, obstacles and borders and rival waves, predicting the effects of propagation and its harmful or useful from the point of view of the parties involved, as well as countermeasures (Shokuei, 2013). But the definitions of each of these components are brief; Origin: Places that are the origin of innovations and messages and values and innovations. Destination, domain and place: Destination means the places to which the broadcast content or the continuous streaming stream reaches. The geographical area or environment can be receptive (convergent) or non-environmental (divergent) (Shokuei, 2010). In defining the place, it can be specified that the main goal is in the destination. Time: is a factor that can be considered continuously or in the form of distinct periods from each other and consecutively. The starting point and evolution of phenomena are denoted by T. its periods by t1, t2 and t3. Direction: Movement of phenomena and channels of transfer of innovation from origin to destination, geographical distribution and socio-economic distance are important issues in relation to phenomena. Topic: The subject of the spread may be infectious diseases. Such as cholera, measles, influenza, bovine tuberculosis, agricultural and technological innovations like modified seeds or video, television, satellite. Cultural topics, such as rock and roll music, the prevalence of clothing models. Or physical-cultural phenomena, such as the revolutionary and guerrilla struggles of Russian peasants, Cuban revolutionaries, Vietnamese fighters, or black American ghettos (Shokuei, 2010).

Features of play theory
Selectiveness of cultural borrowing: When two cultures collide, after proving their usefulness and compatibility, certain elements and components are borrowed. "Cultural borrowing" is a two-way street. It is not just civilized societies that influence primitive societies. Borrowed items often enter the culture of the destination community after being manipulated in the "original form". Some cultural features are "easier" to disseminate than others. Technological innovations are easier to accept than social and ideological ideas, because their degree of usefulness and usability can be recognized quickly (Ferraro, 2001). There are also factors in this theory that can reduce the speed of playback and they are referred to as "reducing factors" such as: Distance: The acceptance of cultural innovations also decreases with increasing distance. Innovations will be accepted more deeply and penetratingly at the point closest to the origin, and will diminish as they move away from it. Time: The passage of time is also considered an important factor in this regard; Disseminating innovation to a farther point requires more time, as the number of acceptors decreases as the distance increases. Therefore, the rate of acceptance decreases with increasing time. Barriers to seepage: In addition to the natural weakness and reduction of innovations and innovations due to the increase in time-distance, dams and obstacles also stop or slow down the process of innovation or stop further progress (Jordan and Rowntree, 2001).

Yemen
Yemen has a history of three millennia and has historically been one of the richest regions in the ancient world, as it was the link between India, China, Africa and the Mediterranean in trade. In the millennium BC, there were three centers of civilization in the Arabian Peninsula, the most important and most prosperous of which was in Yemen (Amirdehi, 2010). Due to its climatic features, which are located in a warm region, this land has a temperate climate, abundant monsoon rains and an abundance of blessings, which has long been known as "Saudi Arabia" (Yarshater, 2001) and was named after it. Because it is located on the right side of the Kaaba, it is called Yemen and its name is also derived from the root of Yemen (blessing) and also attributed to "Ayman ibn Yarab ibn Qahtan" (Al-Weisi, 1962).

Geopolitical and geostrategic position
Yemen is a country with an area of 527968 square kilometers with a population of about 24 million people, of which about 50.6% are men and 49.5% are women. Yemen is located in the south of the Arabian Peninsula and has wide sea borders in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. The strategic position of the country in terms of aristocracy over the Horn of Africa and the possibility of controlling the movements of this region as well as the east coast of Africa through the maritime borders of southern and western Yemen and the island of Socatra, has given special importance to this country. In addition, the country's aristocracy over the Bab al-Mandeb Strait has given it double importance in terms of energy supply and transit of goods. In fact, a large percentage of the traffic on the Suez Canal also passes through Bab al-Mandeb. Therefore, it can be said that Bab al-Mandeb is as important as the Suez Canal (Drysdale and Blake, 1994). The existence of several factors has doubled Yemen's position in the twentieth century: A. Its proximity to the Horn of Africa, which in the second half of the twentieth century has increased the sensitivity of its position due to the conflicts of superpowers in the region. B. The siege of Bab al-Mandeb by Egyptian forces in the 1967 Five-Day War was a historic experience for the occupying regime in Jerusalem. Therefore, the security of Yemen is of vital importance to the Israeli regime. C. Yemen, which shares borders with Saudi Arabia to the north, is particularly important for Saudi Arabia in terms of oil production and exports. D. Due to having long beaches in the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea, as well as the existence of important ports such as Aden, Hodeidah and Faha, the strategic importance of Yemen doubles (Karimloo, 1995). In the picture below, you can see the Yemeni provinces;

Yemeni Shia population
The official religion of Yemen is Islam. The Yemeni Muslim community is often religiously composed of the two religions of Zaidiyyah and Shafi'i. Zaydiyya came to Yemen in the second century AH and now most of the mountainous and northern regions of Yemen are inhabited and Sunnis who are mostly Shafi'i live in the south and in the coastal areas of "Tamameh" (Mir Razavi and Ahmadi Leforki, 2004). More than 99% of the people of this country are Muslims.
Although there are no official statistics on the percentage of Shias and Sunnis in the country, it can be said that about 35% of the population are Shias and 65% are Sunnis. Zaydiyya is one of the Shia sects named after Zayd ibn Ali. The followers of this sect, unlike the twelve Imams, consider Zayd ibn Ali as the fifth Imam instead of his brother, Muhammad Baqir, and in the Imamate of Ali ibn Abi Talib, Hassan ibn Ali, Hussein ibn Ali, Ali ibn Hussein (PBUH) with other Shias. Thus, if Shias are meant to mean "followers of Ali ibn Abi Talib (peace be upon them)", more than 35% of Yemen's 26 million people are Shias, most of whom are Zaidis. It goes without saying that there are no exact statistics in this regard. Nevertheless, some believe that Zaidis make up 55% of the population of Yemen (Abbasi and Golchin, 2015). The main center of the Zaidiyyah Shia in Yemen is Saada province, especially the city of Houth, but they also live in the provinces of Taiz, Al-Jawf, Sanaa, as well as in the provinces of Ab, Dhamar, Imran, Ma'rib, Hajjah, Mujawit and Hodeidah. Saada is the center of the Yemeni Ansarullah Shia movement. The province borders Saudi Arabia and is 243 kilometers from Sanaa and covers about 2.5 percent of Yemen.

Overview of Yemen
Yemeni society is a complex combination of tribal, sectarian, and religious divisions that have shaped the country's turbulent political life and Islamic revivalist environment. Prior to the unification of the two Yemenis in 1990, northern and southern Yemen were governed by completely different ideological regimes. The Arab Republic of North Yemen, established after the overthrow of the Zaidiyyah Hamid al-Din dynasty in 1962, took on a nationalist flavor under successive civilian and military regimes. Unlike in the north, there was difficult coexistence between Islam and the government in the Democratic People's Republic of South Yemen. Shortly after the independence of South Yemen in 1967, the Marxist regime took control of mosques, nationalized endowments, and replaced religious law with a non-religious law (Dekmejian, 2011). However, in the midst of the Cold War, northern and southern Yemen each tended toward a twentieth-century bipolar system; So that South Yemen was the arena of the Soviet Union and North Yemen was also in the hands of the United States, and the presence of these two powers created conflicts and imposed great costs on these two countries, which finally on May 22, 1990 together. Formed the ally and the Republic of Yemen. After the unification of the two Yemenis, the parliaments of the two countries elected "Ali Abdullah Saleh", the former president of North Yemen, as the president of the United Yemen, and "Haidar Abu Bakr al-Attis", the former leader of South Yemen, was appointed to form the government of the Republic of Yemen (Cigarettes, 1992). Regarding Yemen's resources, it must be acknowledged that despite Yemen's underground resources and good geographical location, the country is still underdeveloped and poor. The reasons for this backwardness can be found in the existence of conflicts and civil wars, as well as the direct presence of superpowers in the past and large countries such as the United States and regional countries such as Saudi Arabia in recent years (Hashemi Nasab, 2009).

Houthi movement
There is a Shia group in the north of Yemen, in Saada province, which is attributed to Badruddin Houthi and is known as Houthis, and it is also called Shabab Momen group. The Faithful Youth Organization went through two stages; The establishment and formation phase, which began in 1990 and shortly after the announcement of the unification of the two Yemenis in some areas of Saada province in northern Sanaa, was limited to providing religious education to the youth and training and staffing. The Houthi centers became the Kaaba of the aspirations of many young people who went to Saada from different parts and other provinces. Gradually, the Houthis expanded their activities from Saada to other provinces and cities where the Zaydis lived. The second phase, which was the phase of armed confrontation against the government, began in 2004 (Doghshi, 2010). The group was sponsored by Sayyid Badruddin al-Houthi and the group's chief of operations, Sayyid Hussein Badruddin al-Houthi, was an activist in the Shabab al-Momen group who was killed during the 2004 war with the Yemeni government (Sadeghi and Ahmadian, 2011). During his lifetime, Badruddin Houthi expressed his sincere devotion to Imam Khomeini, and this was to the extent that he was considered the representative of Ayatollah Khomeini in Yemen (Negahdar, 2017). After him, his brother Abdul Malik al-Houthi, who had a strong intellectual, cultural and eloquent personality, was elected to lead the movement, despite the presence of his older brother Yahya. Since 2004 he has been leading the group. The Houthis had good and bad relations with the Yemeni government until 2003, and even the Houthis sided with the government in the 1994 secessionist war and fought the separatists with weapons and property provided by the government. In 2003, Ali Abdullah Saleh was warmly welcomed by young believers during a visit to northern Yemen. However, over time, the Yemeni government, concerned about the expansion of Houthi influence and power in the north of the country, set out to arrest their leader, Hussein al-Houthi, but this attempt led to six rounds of fighting between the Houthis and the Yemeni government, which failed without a victory. One-way ended.

Iran-Yemen relations
The relations between the Islamic Republic of Iran and Yemen during the last 40 years have always been a function of regional and international variables. Prior to the victory of the Islamic Revolution, the two countries of North and South Yemen did not have a clear definition and position in Iran's foreign policy. In particular, South Yemen was one of the allies of the Soviet Union, and this situation led to the Soviet military presence in the Red Sea and the Amman Sea and the dominance of the Bab al-Mandeb strategy, and the movement of Western military and merchant ships in these areas. Be disturbed, which was part of Iran's regional concerns at the time. Therefore, Tehran's foreign policy towards South Yemen in the second Pahlavi period was a worrying one. At that time, Iran deployed part of its military forces in Dhofar on behalf of the United States and the West to defend the kingdom of Amman. After the victory of the Islamic Revolution, we are witnessing a shift in the orientation of the foreign policy of North and South Yemen towards Iran. North Yemen was one of the first countries to recognize the Islamic Republic of Iran in 1979, but with the start of the Iran-Iraq War, North Yemen, led by Ali Abdullah Saleh, was influenced by the Gulf Cooperation Council and the Ba'athist regime invaded Iraq. Iran supported. North Yemen, which initially identified itself as a supporter of the Iranian revolution, even sent troops to the front during the imposed war to help the Ba'athist regime in Iraq. While South Yemen, led by Ali Nasser Mohammad, supported Tehran. On the other hand, the South Yemeni government, after the revolution, to show its goodwill, released an Iranian captive pilot who had been detained since 1967 due to the crash of his plane at the Dhofar border, through the mediation of the Oman People's Liberation Front (Amirdehi, 2010). Iran's involvement in the war with Iraq could not prevent the Islamic Revolution's discourse from influencing groups such as the Houthis in Yemen, whose currents of thought are influenced by the Iranian Revolution. Sayyid Hussein al-Houthi, the leader of this movement, in his speeches during his lifetime, constantly spoke about the innocence of the polytheists, Quds Day, the need to fight arrogance and the struggle against the Zionist regime; But the culmination was when the Houthis took control of Yemen in 2015 and Western-backed President Abd Rabbo Mansour Hadi was forced to resign in Sanaa and flee the capital. Many believed that with this internal development, Yemen had brought another Arab country under the control of Iran; But in this statement that the role of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the developments in Yemen is probably seen as a threat due to the increase of Iran's influence in the region, which is mostly raised by the Arab countries of the Persian Gulf (Mosavi and Bageri Far, 2015).

Yemen and the Islamic Revolution of Iran
The Islamic Revolution was the first event of the twentieth century to emerge outside the bipolar framework of the world; The United States and the Soviet Union had no role or influence in it. This event created a pervasive movement across the globe to revive Islamic principles and values (Bahmii, 2017). Following the victory of the Islamic Revolution in Iran, a new spirit of hope was breathed on the Muslims of the world, especially the Shias. This revolution could turn the protective currents of Islamic labor into revolutionary currents and lead to the creation of a wave of Islamic awakening. Yemen is one of the countries where the victory of the Islamic Revolution of Iran sparked hope and Islamic awakening among the Shias, including the Zaidis and the Houthi movement. Martyr Hussein al-Houthi, the leader of this movement, founded the core of the Islamic resistance in Yemen, influenced by the victory of the Islamic Revolution, familiarity with the personality and ideas of the leader of the Islamic Revolution. Therefore, the welcome of the Islamic Revolution of Iran in Yemen caused the Shia forces to become more active and in return, some of you saw your interests and survival in threat. (Shokrzadeh Chaharborj and Jafari far, 2019). With the victory of the Islamic Revolution of Iran, the Zaidis send a delegation from Yemen to Iran and they appoint Imam Khomeini as their Imam. The word "Imam" is used only for Shia Imams, but with the use of this word, a great political closeness was created between the Zaidis and the Islamic Republic (Ganjkhani, 2017). However, under the influence of the Islamic Revolution of Iran, Shia movements no longer have the position of their former conservatives and have greatly influenced the future developments in Yemen. Concerns that have emerged outside Yemen and from countries such as Saudi Arabia in the region about these internal developments in Yemen have ultimately led to a number of hard and soft measures to counter the infiltration of pro-Iranian Shias in Yemen and their rise to power (Shokrzadeh Chaharborj and Jafarifar, 2019).

The reflection of the Islamic Revolution of Iran on Yemen and its consequences 4.8.1. The reflection of the Islamic Revolution of Iran on Yemen
In expressing the influential contexts of the Islamic Revolution of Iran, one should pay attention to the cultural aspect of the Ansarullah movement, which can be examined in three axes. First, being a Shia and the presence of Shia principles in it. The second is to criticize the current situation, especially the protest against the secular activities of the Yemeni government to provide conditions for Wahhabi activists and the occasional Saudi and American interference in the affairs of Yemen. Third, promoting the ideas of Imam Khomeini and the Islamic Revolution of Iran in areas such as the struggle against the United States and Israel. Undoubtedly, the occurrence of the Islamic Revolution in Iran caused a new spirit to be breathed into the body of the Yemeni Shia Shias, who were mainly Zaidis. "If the Islamic Revolution in Iran had not taken place, the Zaydi religion would have disappeared in Yemen," said Issam al-Emad, a former Wahhabi mufti who converted to burial. Thus, it can be added that with the Islamic Revolution of Iran, not only did life return to Zaydia, but also the jihadist principles in the Yemeni religious culture became more colorful than before, and the Al-Houthi movement from the heart of the Shia groups in this country Become one of the most important religious political forces in Yemen. One of the most influential people in Yemen who was influenced by Ayatollah Khomeini's thoughts was Sayyid Hassan al-Houthi, who later took over the leadership of Houthi. According to the distribution theory, it can be said that due to the cultural and historical proximity of Iran and Yemen, favorable conditions have been provided for the presence and influence of the Islamic Republic of Iran in this country (Amirdehi, 2010). This affinity can include; The Islamic nature of Yemen and the Islamic Republic of Iran, the existence of Shias in Iran and Yemen, the cultural and religious relations between the elites, jurists and people of Iran and Yemen, as well as the historical background of oppression and oppression of Shias away from the real political scene. Therefore, the existence of cultural and religious backgrounds between Abiran and Yemen is one of the most important factors increasing the impact of the Islamic Revolution's discourse of the Yemeni people, which can occur in other cultural dimensions. For example, another symbolic activity in Yemen that has been influenced by the Islamic Revolution of Iran is the change in religious ceremonies. The Zaidiyyah Shia community has gradually been influenced by some of the rituals of the Imami sect, such as the mourning of Ashura and the complete prayer. These ceremonies were not common among the Zaidis before the Iranian revolution, but now a large number of Zaidiyyah Shia have adopted the Iranian and Iraqi Shia methods. They are now mourning on the day of Ashura and have a deep tendency to recite the complete prayer and the keys of Al-Jannan (Mirahmadi and Ahmadvand, 2015). The presence of the Zaidis in the Yemeni political structure could change and ultimately moderate the previous view of Yemeni foreign policy towards the Islamic Republic of Iran. In addition, most Yemeni citizens are interested in the Islamic Republic, and public support for the Ansarullah movement and the Houthi Shias indicates the export of the Islamic Revolution to this geopolitical area (Shamsini Ghiasvand and Ahmadvand, 2016). "It suffices to say that the movement of the Yemeni revolution is inspired by thought," said Yahya Mohammad, a political activist and member of the Ansarullah movement, in an interview with the International Quran News Agency (IQNA). Ayatollah Khomeini has started and the main demand of the revolutionaries to implement justice and democracy in the country is to cut off the hand of the world powers from Yemen and preserve independence (Mosavi and Bageri Far, 2015). Mohammad Mansour, one of the Zaidiyyah leaders, says: "If it were not for the Islamic Revolution of Iran, there would not be a Zadi in Yemen now" (Abbasi and Golchin, 2015). Another dimension that should be noted is that the link between the values of Iran and Yemen has led to concerns about the existence of a common enemy, which has provided the ground for closeness between the two sides, especially in terms of security and defense (Rostami et al., 2018). The events of 9/11 and the declaration of war on terrorism made the Yemeni government the most important ally of the United States in this war. The Yemeni government's accession to the United States in the fight against terrorism increased the presence of US military and security forces in Yemen during the secret visit of Israeli delegations to Sanaa. This provoked the protest of Hussein al-Houthi. In 2002, he called for a boycott of American and Israeli goods and chanted "Death to America" and "Death to Israel." Far, (Mosavi and Bageri Far, 2015).

The theory of the spread and reflection of the Islamic Revolution of Iran on Yemen
The two countries of Iran and Yemen, in addition to their special geopolitical, geostrategic and geoeconomic strategic position in the Persian Gulf region, also have religious, religious and cultural commonalities with each other, and these components have facilitated these relations. Also, other institutions and channels are needed to do the broadcasting work; Therefore, tools, individuals and institutions will naturally or voluntarily be the cause of the spread of thought in this regard. The main difference between the Yemeni people's revolution and the popular uprisings is that the Yemeni people have a closer view of the Islamic revolution and their understanding of the literature of the revolution is higher than that of other nations. In this regard, embassies or cultural consultations as well as institutions such as seminaries, radio, foreign students' association, World Assembly for the Rapprochement of Religions, education of Yemeni students in seminaries and universities in Iran, Imam's funeral, Quds Day or translation of Ayatollah books Khomeini, Ali Shariati, Shahid Motahari and Allameh Tabatabai, who provide the possibility of transmitting messages, are among the routes and centers of the Islamic Revolution (Heshmatzadeh, 2008). The occurrence of a revolution in a land with a high strategic position has the most repercussions; Therefore, the influential power (cultural superpower) of Iran is important in this regard. Of course, Iran seeks to influence the cultural, political and religious elites and attract them to the revolution, to achieve the process of cultural dissemination in a hierarchical manner. And Lebanon has also spread (Barzegar, 2003). This is also conceivable for Yemen. During his lifetime, Badruddin Houthi expressed his sincere devotion to Imam Khomeini, and this was to the extent that he was considered the representative of Ayatollah Khomeini in Yemen (Negahdar, 2017). One of the topics of contagious broadcasting is the spread of broadcasting topics to the closest strata, individuals and regions that are adjacent to change and innovation. Due to the proximity of Iran and Yemen and the existence of cultural and religious homogeneity and other commonalities, Neighborhood, Yemen should be the first country to be exposed to the storm of cultural developments in Iran and the revolution will spread there through the spread of infection (Hazbavi and Karimifard, 2016). One of the most important components in the form of transmission is the common Islamic ideology, which is the unifying factor of all Muslims in the world. Exporting values in a revolution is considered one of the main goals of that revolution. By transmitting values to other countries, including Muslim countries, informing them through mass media such as radio, press, books, cinema and propaganda institutions such as seminaries and the Islamic Propaganda Organization and other official bodies such as the Ministry of Islamic Guidance and the Ministry of Affairs It is foreign . According to the mentioned topics, in general, the following diagram can be drawn; Now, according to what has been said, a table can be drawn in connection with the theory of diffusion and the Islamic Revolution as follows; Table 1.

Factors of the theory of diffusion and the Islamic Revolution of Iran in Yemen
Origin In the first place, Iran (Tehran) and in the second place, resistance movements in Iraq, Lebanon, Syria and Palestine (Nejat, 2018) Destination, geographical environment and location Yemen (Sanaa), largely (60%) convergent with the principles and values of the Iranian revolution, the Houthi movement (Ansarullah of present-day Yemen) (Hosseini and Barzegar, 2013)

Obstacles
The language and culture of the Yemeni people, lack of complete familiarity with the religious and social principles of Yemen, the repressive actions of Ali Abdullah Saleh, the efforts of Saudi Arabia and the coalition forces (Nejat, 2018) Predict playback effects Useful (Revival of Zaidiyyah Shia, influence of Yemeni personalities from the Iranian revolution, expansion of principles, foundations and rituals of the Twelver Shias and expansion of revolutionary and value slogans, Islamic awakening and increase of political demands (Nejat, 2018) Source: Authors of the present study

The consequences of the Islamic Revolution of Iran on Yemen
According to the explanations in the previous sections, it becomes clear that Yemen, inspired by the Islamic Revolution of Iran (since the occurrence of this revolution until now) and being on the path of Islamic awakening (Arab Spring), has always demanded its independence, justice  , 2017). Also, with the expansion of Shia geopolitics and the addition of Yemen to the axis of resistance, the alarm has been sounded for Saudi Arabia, whose religious foundations are Wahhabism (anti-Shia). Ansarullah, who was not recognized by Saudi Arabia and considered an armed and terrorist group, formed a ruling government, a government with management, and was able to manage the war and liberate the occupied territories, and position itself in the position of the peninsula and the region. The Red Sea should be visible and imposed, in fact, it should come out of an armed and terrorist group, as claimed by the Saudis, and become a regional government and actor. • The main reason for the protests in the Arab Spring was the lack of democracy and political repression, the lack of freedom of expression, the lack of parties and political corruption (Niakoee, 2012). These factors were also observed in Yemen and led to the formation of many protests. Although the Yemeni protests were inspired by the Islamic Revolution of Iran, and with the capture of Yemen by Ansarullah, freedom and democracy were provided for the Yemenis in practice, it should not be overlooked that Yemen was embroiled in a bloody war that is still going on. In addition to the war, the economic situation and poverty in Yemen are worse than before, and the living conditions of the people are very poor. In this regard, we can refer to the statistics of the International Committee of the Red Cross, which according to the statistics provided by the Yemeni war, Yemenis in 2019 continue to suffer from hunger and malnutrition, and 3.2 million women and children are malnourished. Are severely affected (Irna, 2020).

Conclusion
The present study sought to examine the consequences of the reflection of the Islamic Revolution of Iran on Yemen. At first, using the theory of dissemination, it became clear that the Islamic Revolution of Iran, although late, was exported to Yemen. One of the main reasons why Yemen was a good platform for accepting the Iranian revolution is the existence of common religious beliefs. Yemen should be considered among the countries that, due to the common religious and doctrinal foundations with the Islamic Republic of Iran, its historical and cultural ties, as well as being in the geopolitics of the Islamic Awakening, was able to become president with his revolution inspired by the Islamic Revolution of Iran. To oust Yemen from power and cut off the hand of Saudi Arabia and the United States in the affairs of this country. But what were the consequences of the reflection of the Islamic Revolution on Yemen, which led to the formation of the Yemeni Revolution? The research findings show that the spread and influence of the ideals, ideas and main principles of the Islamic Revolution of Iran exist in Yemen and a very close relationship has been established between Yemen and the Islamic Republic. Also, considering the discourse of resistance that is rooted in the Islamic Revolution of Iran and the actions that Yemen took against Saudi Arabia and the coalition forces, it became clear that Yemen has been added to the axis of resistance against the United States, Israel and Saudi Arabia. Thus, the Yemeni revolution has had very positive results for the regime of the Islamic Republic of Iran, but in relation to the consequences for the Yemeni country itself, we can mention the independence of Yemen, freedom of action in deciding and choosing its own destiny. Yemen's Ansarullah, once considered a terrorist group by Saudi Arabia, is now recognized as an independent state and is able to manage the war to a great extent. Of course, this revolution also had bad consequences for Yemen. Yemen is embroiled in a bloody war that is still going on. In addition to the war, the economic situation and poverty in Yemen are worse than before, and the living conditions of the people are very poor.
