        Leo Tolstoy is one of the greatest renowned writers of the world who, in his works, adopts a special stance regarding issues of philosophical and mystical nature. This is quite visible in the story “The baptized son” which might be of clear conceptual resemblance for the oriental audience, especially those from Iran. While dealing with this story, the present article strives to maintain a conceptual interpretation of the elements that have caused a resemblance between the aforementioned story and the post-Islamic literature and mysticism of Iran. It also tries to disclose these similarities and at the same time clearly illustrate that the “Baptized Son” is an allusion to some Quranic stories. It also focuses on portraying the fact that concepts like sin and repentance enjoy a special place in the Iranian mysticism just as they do in this story. As this great author pictures, the main theme of the story is the ever-lasting struggle between vice and virtue, one of the major themes both in Islam and in Persian literature. Manuscript profile

        This paper tries to explain the main reason why Russian poets are inclined toward Hafiz’ poetry and to refer to some factors helping Russian poets get a better recognition of his poetry or affecting the creation of their oriental works. Russian poets detached from other oriental poets paid a special attention toward Hafiz so that this great man of Shiraz gained a special position in the literary community in Russia. Some Russian poets mentioned the name of Hafiz directly in their works and even some others composed some poetry attributing the philosophical mystical and ethical mentality of Hafiz. This paper also refers to ‘Association of Hafiz Followers’ founded in Saint Petersburg by ode composing poets, namely, Vichislav Ivanov and Michael Kuzmin, known as Hafiz Camp. The members of the association are all Hafiz followers. The association has remarkably contributed to the identification and distribution of Hafiz’ thoughts. The outcome of this paper illustrates that Russian poets have used the name of Hafiz in various eras so that his ethical and philosophical mystical ideas as well as his rhythmic odes are reflected in their poetries. Inspired by Hafiz and his poetry, Russian poets have also used some words such as mystic, ascetic, nightingale, bartender, cloak, ecstasy, comrade, red roses of Shiraz, etc. so that their poetry is filled with a totally oriental and mystical atmosphere.

        The article first makes a brief reference to the origin of prayer that is influenced by individual and social beliefs, and then goes into the literary works and how they are expressed by Persian and Russian writers and poets. Prayer literary works are often influenced by the beliefs of writers and poets. There is a lot of information about prayer in ancient and contemporary literary texts. Prayer has many forms, and in prose and poetry literature, it often carries the message of theology and human connection with the divine realm, and in fact the writer and poet are left with a God. Many writers and poets from Iran and Russia have addressed this issue in their works, such as Rumi, Saadi, Hafez, Farabi, Attar, Pushkin, Lermontov, Bonin, and others. Some are based on the themes of the religious texts or under the influence of the wonders of the universe. Persian worship literature begins with the praise of God, such as Ferdowsi's Shahnameh, Sa'adi’s Golestan and Bustan and Attar's Poetry Divan. Various centuries of Russian literature have also seen works of worship in various forms. The present study deals with the case of the prayer in Alexander Pushkin's poetry, which is influenced by his religious beliefs. Prayer in Pushkin's poetry is in the form of literal praise or praise to God and seeking blessings. His prayers for God, his neighbor, are the duty of poet and poetry. The spiritual peak of Pushkin's poetry is the emergence of the "Divine Verb". He leaves the material world with art and with the help of religious anthropology and then moves on to the supernatural world. Manuscript profile
