Abstract :

Yahya ibn Maaz Razi(died 258 A.H.) is one of the first Iranian mystics and theoreticians in the field of Islamic and Iranian mysticism who called him "the only one of the age". In Iranian mysticism, where the originality is given to joy and happiness, and Abu Saeed Abul Khair is considered one of its pioneers, they have taken their intellectual basis from great men such as Yahya bin Moaz Razi, who built his mystical theory on the basis of "hope" and with the originality of light and The lighting of ancient Iran was more harmonious. Relying on God's forgiveness, which precedes His wrath, and based on the fact that human worship is very insignificant compared to God's mercies, and based on the fact that God's promises are on him and God's promises depend on the actions of his servants, he concludes that he should have mercy God had hope and this hope pursues happiness and on this basis he prefers wealth over poverty and considers God as his and the mystics' main hope and evaluates his forgiveness in this world with such an extent that it leads to forgiveness in the hereafter.
