Kehidupan sunting

Mausoleum Öljaitü di Soltaniyeh, Iran.

Oljeitu adalah putra dari istri ketiga Arghun, Uruk Khatun yang Kristen. Oljeitu dibaptis sebagai seorang Kristen dan memperoleh nama Nikolya (Nicholas) sesuai nama Paus Nikolas IV. Selama masa mudanya dia masuk agama Buddha dan kemudian ke Islam Sunni bersama saudara lelakinya Ghazan. Dia kemudian masuk Islam Syiah setelah melakukan kontak dengan para ulama Syiah, meskipun sumber lain menunjukkan dia masuk Islam karena bujukan istrinya. Dia mengubah nama depannya menjadi nama Islami Muhammad. Beberapa kerabat dan sahabatnya memberinya julukan Khutabanda. Rashid al-Din menulis bahwa dia menggunakan nama Oljeitu mengikuti kaisar Yuan Oljeitu Temür yang bertakhta di Dadu. Tetapi beberapa sumber Muslim menyebutkan bahwa hujan turun ketika dia lahir, dan orang-orang Mongol yang bergembira memanggilnya dengan nama Mongolia Öljeitu (Өлзийт), yang berarti penuh harapan.

Setelah menggantikan saudara lelakinya, Öljeitu mulai dipengaruhi oleh teolog Syiah Al-Hilli dan Maitham Al Bahrani. Pada tahun 1306, Oljeitu mendirikan kota Soltaniyeh, dan setelah kematian Al-Hilli, Oljeitu memindahkan jasad gurunya dari Baghdad ke sebuah kuil berkubah yang dia bangun di Soltaniyeh. Kemudian, terasing karena perselisihan antara golongan Hanafi dan Syafi'i, Oljeitu mengubah mazhabnya menjadi Islam Syiah pada tahun 1310, menyakininya sebagai versi Islam yang hakiki. Namun, juga dilaporkan bahwa dia kembali ke Islam Sunni sebelum kematiannya. Konon Mirkhond menyatakan bahwa dia memulai kebiasaan mengambil anak-anak dari keluarga Kristen dan Yahudi untuk dibesarkan sebagai Muslim, serupa dengan sistem Devşirme Utsmaniyah kemudian.

Pada tahun 1309, Öljeitu mendirikan Dar al-Sayyedah ("pondok Sayyid") di Shiraz, Iran, dan memberinya wakaf sebesar 10.000 dinar per tahun.

Dia wafat di Soltaniyeh, dekat Zanjan, pada tahun 1316, setelah memerintah selama dua belas tahun dan sembilan bulan. Setelah itu, Rashid-al-Din Hamadani dituduh menyebabkan kematiannya melalui peracunan dan dieksekusi. Oljeitu digantikan oleh putranya Abu Sa'id. Makamnya yang megah di Soltaniyeh, 300 km di barat Teheran, tetap menjadi monumen Ilkhanid Persia yang paling terkenal.
