Abstract :

Nahj al Balagha, as an interpretation of Qur’an and one of the main principals of Islamic culture, has always invited human being to benefit of divine blessings and also try to get his share of daily life. S’adi being very well acquainted with Nahj al Balagha has written his longest anecdote of Golestan on the subject of poverty and wealth. Given the influence of religious teachings, in the writing of Golestan and its many similarities to religious works, especially the wisdom of Nahj al -Balagha, this article examines poverty in the "Saadi Conflict with the claimant" in Golestan's book and its comparison with Nahj al -Balagha's wisdom. Has extracted common concepts and themes; To make synergy in the power of work and more linking literature and religion This essay is an analytical descriptive text and has been used to prepare it from library resources. The results of this comparison show that both the effects of poverty are one of the most important obstacles to individual and social development and consider thanksgiving, contentment, purity, charity, charity, and forgiveness. ​In some ways, Saadi has been able to express the basis of poverty without any differentiation of understanding and corresponding to the wisdom of Nahj al -Balagha.
