Abstract

One of the sources of government revenue during the Pahlavi era was the sale of flying tickets. Government agencies have been selling lottery tickets. People who wanted to sell lottery tickets should be allowed by the government. How to Sell, Governmental Organizations responsible for Selling Lottery Tickets and the type of revenues generated by the sale of lottery tickets in the community has responded differently and has led to the formation of different and sometimes conflicting views on the purchase and sale of lottery tickets.
This research has investigated the process of publication, operation and sale process, as well as, different viewpoints on lottery tickets in the first and second Pahlavi period. The question is what were the reasons for the release and operation of these tickets in this historical period, and why and how did they cause to the opposition of some social strata? This paper attempts to answer this question by descriptive-analytical method and using archival documents, press and main sources. The findings reveal that selling the tickets caused contradicting reactions. Some religious figures such as Ayatollah Khomeini and Ayatollah Taalaaghani turned against them and considered the tickets as gambling. Ayatollah boroujerdi believed that if the tickets are not via gambling, the revenue can be spent on charities. Jalal Al-Ahmad contradicted the tickets as a western phenomenon.
