      Decoding of hidden meanings in pristine texts is a challenge for researchers to develop new and acceptable methods for dissecting and extrapolating the concealed messages in these written heritage texts. One of the most effective methods to accomplish this arduous task is analyzing discourse via studying conceptual metaphors that reveal the Author's thought process. The aim of the present research is to clarify Abdul Qadir Gilāni's mistic discourse that was dominant in Islamic world for centuries, and its analysis through Fairclaugh's discourse analysis approach in three steps: Description, interpretation and explanation. In this project, "Love" Metaphor has been studied by the researcher which is the foreground and frequent in his lyrics, through Lakoff and Johnson's theory that interprets conceptual metaphors as a character of human thought. Through utilizing SPSS software, metaphor identification procedure of Pragglejaz group (2007) has been used to identifying and categorizing different kind of metaphors. The results demonstrate that in Gilāni's discourse, the relationship between a human being and God, should not be characterized as the relationship between and idolater and an idol but rather as a genuine relationship between the lover and the loved. His use of metaphors is not intended to beautify and emblazon his words but rather to enhance the objectivity and accuracy of his message. The discourse of Gilāni is mystic, simple and antediluvian and it is instituted on facility and laxity and one of the inclinations is the lack of awkward ritual for entering the Tarighat.

      One of the prominent concepts in Islamic mysticism, which is one of the divine traditions for the reform and education of human beings, is the tradition of entanglement, the principle of which is crystallized in the word "urgency". In fact, the afflicted person suffers from God, so if he pays attention and repents, while rescuing himself from that dangerous situation, he will gain new insight and enjoy it in the path of growth and excellence. We have reinforced this with concepts such as the "Jonah complex" and "self- actualization" borrowed from the psychology of the school of humanism to emphasize the special role of urgency in Islamic mysticism, which we believe mystics derive from religious books. They have discovered and urgency is the main factor in overcoming the Jonah complex and achieving self-realization in mysticism. The contents of this article have been collected through library, documentary and descriptive-analytical methods. As a result, meeting the needs of the anxious person in the most difficult situations occurs due to the cessation of material excuses and complete trust, which ultimately leads to overcoming the Jonah complex and self- actualization Manuscript profile

      The discussion of the Perfect Human is one of the most important topics in the field of Islamic mysticism, which has been discussed and studied from different views. But "Hafiz Rajab Borsi", who is a Shia and his wisdom is not clear enough, has also addressed the issue of the Perfect Human. Some scholars have accused him of exaggeration, it is a problem that the writer has investigated with a library and analytical method, and it can be said that the investigation of the ratio of his view on the Perfect Human with the mystical view and the reference of his view and inspiration from religious sources It has not been investigated yet. In the process of research, we have come to the conclusion that he has a mystical attitude and by referring to the religious texts and sources that are glorified by the mystical authorities of the Innocents (a.s.), especially the Amirul Momineen (a.s.) in his works, especially in his book Mashariq Al-Anwar Fi Haghayigh Amir al-Mu'minin (a.s.) and his point of view in this regard is compatible with the point of view of mystics and religious sources. Inspired by religious texts, Rajab Borsi considers the Perfect Human to have all levels of divine manifestations, Allah’s omnipresence, the great name of Allah, the perfect word of Allah, the absolute caliph of Allah, Allah’s Hand, Allah’s eye, Allah’s language, etc. and it deals in detail with the manifestation of the divine names and attributes of the perfect human being Manuscript profile
