description Among the political and cultural strategies that were used in the court of Ilkhans was their view and approach towards religion and religious minorities. Many have considered this type of Mongol government's view of religion and religious affairs as religious tolerance, which made people of different religions appear in the court of Ilkhans and reach high levels of government. Also, the Mughal rulers themselves had different religions in different periods of the Ilkhanid era or were interested in supporting a particular religion. Abrahamic religions are among the religions that became very popular in the Mongol era, and many works of art are influenced by these religions. Among the famous artistic works of the Ilkhanid era, there is a manuscript of Rashid al-Din Fazlullah Hamdani's comprehensive chronicles, which was written and illustrated during his ministry. This version is a historical book and contains the history of myths, beliefs and culture of Turko-Mongol tribes and other tribes and religions. In this research, an attempt is made to study the conditions and the presence of Abrahamic religions in the Ilkhanid era and to find its representation in the illustrations of the comprehensive edition of al-Tawarikh Rashid al-Din. And let's answer this question, why we see the peaceful coexistence of images from the religions of Islam, Christianity and Judaism in the images of Jame Al-Tawarikh Rashiduddin. This research is done in an analytical-descriptive way and the data analysis will be qualitative. The results are indicative of this: due to the tolerance and religious tolerance that was present in the era of the Ilkhans, in the compilation and writing of the comprehensive version of al-Tawarikh, we see the presence of pictures with Jewish, Christian and Islamic themes (Abrahamic religions) side by side.
