Abstract :

One of the most controversial challenges in the world of text is the hermeneutic method, which has recently been considered by many thinkers. This method treats the text as a living thing. Although this "method" and, of course, according to some, is a new "science", but by pondering on previous texts such as the interpretations of the Qur'an, we can see that our ancestors, the method that is now called hermeneutics, earlier in religious texts to Have worked. One of the most prominent of them is the great commentator of mysticism, Rumi, whose spiritual Masnavi is the manifestation of hermeneutics. This study shows that Rumi, with an unparalleled mastery, with living interpretations, has made the hermeneutic spirit current in the body of that story. She has interpreted the story of Margir with an epistemological, historical and mythological point of view and has given new understandings of the symbolic persons and elements of the sun, the mountain, the city.
