Abstract :
Mulla Abu Bakr, the author of Chori, is one of the writers and scholars of the 11th century of Hijri who has written precious works and compositions in various religious and literary fields. The book of Riaz al-Khalood is a didactic -moral work in Persian language which is considered as one of the most important works of the author. This book that contains many moral and didactic themes is written in imitation of Golestan Saadi and is written in eight chapters through which the author has expressed the most obvious didactic categories sometimes in verse and sometimes in prose. The author has achieved this through following the style and moral approach of Saadi in Golestan, or through pointing out some of the good traits and warning against some reprehensible traits. By doing so, the author of Chori has been able to compose an original and remarkable work in the field of Persian didactic literature and play his role in to show the title of an ethics teacher in his course. Paying attention to the words of ancient Iranian elders, using proverbs, anecdotes, etc. is one of the ways that the author of the book has expressed thye didactic themes. In the meantime, reciting poems in Persian and Arabic is one of the most important tools of Mulla Abu Bakr Musnaf in the book Riyad al-Khulood which contains moral and didactic meanings. This article, with a general review of the book "Riyaz al-Kholood" and its structure, has employed an analytical-descriptive method to analyse the data.
