Abstract :
Although Majalese-Saba' shines less in the bright light of Masnavi and Shams's lyrics, but it is one of Rumi’s works in inspiration his mystical thought to the audience. In this compact book, through his pleasant and beautiful prayers, Rumi shows an example of the spiritual and mystical relationship between man and God, and then using rhetorical tools, he reveals his esoteric thought. In expressing these ideas, simile, conceptual metaphor, narration, binary oppositions, paradox and interpretation have more effective role in constructing his mystical language. The information of this article has been collected by library method and analyzed using qualitative-descriptive method. The result of the research shows that mystical language is not an independent language and against other languages, but it is a special application of a common language that is personalized by the signs of the mystical system.
