The present article studies and compares the image of woman in two great poets - Nezami and Saadi – poetries from the critiqual perspective of woman image. These views are prominent on praise and guilt about women. The research tries to find the true image of women in that period by studying the attributes of women in the poems of the abovementioned poets and to objectify their true views about women by referring to some of the poems, and show that in many cases not only the influence of social conditions makes the writer or poet look patriarchal, but rather the individuals, family, environment and traditional beliefs. The article initially studies the positive points and then the negative aspects of women. Criticizing the character of women in Nezami and Sa’adi's works, it can be claimed that the main characters of women include Mahin Banu, Shirin, Maryam, Shekar, Noshabeh Bardei and Maria Al-Qibtiyya, no specific woman is mentioned in Saadi's works.
