Abstract :
Zahir Kermani's Masnavi is one of the precious literary works of the twelfth century AH, which is full of didactic teachings that have not been published yet. This collection is replete with didactic themes and meanings that the poet has used according to his excitation and zeal. Wherever he has the opportunity, he has given advice to the audience. In the present study, the researcher decided to discuss the educational and moral themes and backgrounds in this lyrical collection for the first time by using the documentary-library method of analysis. The most important question in this research is whether the traces of the poet's religious thoughts and beliefs are evident in this work and whether in addition to individual ethics, social ethics is also considered in this work. The research results show that the poet in Shiite school of thought and the source of his thoughts derives from the Shiite school, the verses and hadiths of the Ahl al-Bayt of infallibility and purity. These thoughts are clearly reflected in his poems.
