The analytical and critical recognition of the place of Jihad's component in ISIS's intellectual and political behavior form the core of the paper. It has been attempted to answer the fundamental question based on the qualitative methodology of historical analysis and documentation and the means of pinpointing which component of jihad is in ISIS's intellectual and political behavior. The findings of the paper show that such as denial of defensive jihad and the emphasis on Jihad Fatah, placing jihad under the principles of religion, customary and individualizing jihad, expanding the scope of jihad inclusion, ignoring the rules of Jihad and emphasizing on total violence and new innovations in Jihad, such as jihad marriage, medicine, children, and cyber-media jihad constitute the basic components of the Islamic State's view of jihad. From the perspective of ISIL, jihad has become conceptualized and used as an instrumental means, and the result of their false and distorted religious views has been manifested in the form of a heinous and brutal act.

Sometimes using the concepts of science could be helpful in understanding political relations and international researchers. One of the conceptual interest in the geopolitical system is used, is the concept of "code" and "genome" in geopolitics. Geopolitical genome, the genetic map of each country's that affects domestic and especially foreign policy of the countries. Countries consider genomes of other actors as geopolitical codes. Interaction or confrontation of Code / genome of countries creates an atmosphere that can be aligned or inconsistent with national and regional interests. The authors of this paper attempt to identify factors affecting geopolitics of Iran and Saudi Arabia. To answer the question of "what impacts geopolitical tool in foreign policy with Iran and Saudi Arabia? The hypothesis of the paper is that the geopolitical genome and the heritability and geographic features of Saudi Arabia and the Islamic Republic of Iran are very influential in the formation of geopolitical codes, orientations and strategies of the two countries in the external arena, and both actors are trying to turn off its negative gene and power generating forces and activating the positive and powerful genes, while the geopolitical approach dominates the relationship between the two actors.

The Caspian basin is very important due to the geopolitical situation and energy resources, especially oil and gas. In recent years, competition over energy resources in the field has increased between regional and extra-regional actors, which in addition to the tension and confrontation between the actors, has intensified instability and insecurity in the region. Moreover, how to transfer and deliver the Caspian energy and projects and proposed routes for the transfer of energy from different countries have added to the insecurity and instability. Among the different projects and proposals for Caspian energy transmission, energy transmission through Neka- Jask pipelines which is provided by Iran, is among the important proposals. The question of this study is what effect does the energy transfer by Neka-Jask pipeline in terms of geo-economic and geo-strategic has on the national security of the Islamic Republic of Iran? Based on the authors, in addition to economic and trade advantages, the implementation of Neka-Jask pipeline has increased the bargaining power of Iran in regional and international relations and with the conjoining of pipeline security with national security, national security will also increase.
