        Anvar Ziyaei
        Divine Justice is one of the important religious and verbal principals such as monotheism; but because of its undescribable importance, owns a special place in religious and verbal subjects. Ash'arites belive that Lord's justice is to enter all good doers to Hell and al More
        Divine Justice is one of the important religious and verbal principals such as monotheism; but because of its undescribable importance, owns a special place in religious and verbal subjects. Ash'arites belive that Lord's justice is to enter all good doers to Hell and all evil doers to Heaven. Thus they think that justice is not mandatory to Lord nor evil in the universe; they also believe human is not allowed and capable to judge Lord's decisions. Other religion – Shias – believe in good and bad behaviors conversely. They believe Lord would never leave what wise dictates. This paper aims to study Sa'adi and Amīr Khusrow Dehlavī's viewpoints on Divine judgement. Manuscript profile

        This descriptive – analytical study surveys the "Leili and the Majnoon" by Nizami and Amir Khosrow Dehlavi. It is clear that the temporal and spatial differences have had an undeniable effect on an imitated work; Therefore, although Dehlavi's "Majnoon and Leili", is the same "Leili and Majnoon" by Nizami, It is a different work in terms of cultural and social components that do not have the specific structures and prejudices of the fifth century in the traditional Iranian society. However, the structure of both works is similar in terms of the beginning and the end of the story as well as the characters and the generalities of the story. But the one by Amir Khosrow Dehlavi, has given more opportunity to the beloved to express his love in processing Leili's character. Leili talks about her feelings and nostalgia along with women. The intellectual commonality of both poets is the Islamic cultural. Also special attention paid to the cultural conditions of Arabs and consequently, the special strictures that underlie the behavior of men and women in social relations. Manuscript profile

        Amir Khosrow Dehlavi (651-725 AD) is one of the famous Persian mystics of India in the second half of the seventh century and the early eighth century. In Masnavi, he is a subordinate of Nezami Ganjavi. One of Amir Khosrow's Masnavi which imitating "Haft Peykar" of Nezami has written the poem "Hasht Behesht". In compiling the anecdotes of "Hasht Behesht", he referred to the book "Jawaher Al-Asmar" by Emad Ibn Muhammad Al-Saghari. Amir Khosrow has quoted several anecdotes of "Hasht Behesht" from the book "Jawahar Al-Asmar" and even in many parts of the text of "Hasht Behesht", he has borrowed and adapted the phrases and sentences of this work. The book "Jawaher al-Asmar" contains a hundred stories that are told in the language of parrots for fifty-two nights to prevent a young business woman from betraying her husband. Most of the anecdotes and legends of "Jawaher al-Asmar" and "Hasht Behesht" are based on women's ruse. Part of the theme of the anecdotes is the effect of women's breaking the treaty and pretending to veil. Considering that the book "Jawaher al-Asmar" is one of the most important models of Amir Khosrow's work in "Hasht Behesht" and that both works have been compiled in India, they have many things in common. The present article tries to examine the common themes of both lyrical works. Manuscript profile

        Appreciating the characteristics of a work of art will increase the semantic analysis, understanding literary issues, and the knowledge of reader against the knowledge and understanding of the creator of the work of art. Amir khosro Dehlavi’s works of art are deemed as the significant texts of Persian literature. Leili va Majnoon is one of his works which is composed as an imitation of Nezami’s Leili va Majnoon. At the first glance, everyone thinks about lovely and lyrical aspects of Majnoon va Leili, but after getting involved in studying the story, the reader finds out that Amir Khosro has adequate amount of knowledge in the field of mysticism, Sufism, ethics, and Islamic education so that such a knowledge was well reflected in his works because since being eight years of age he was interacting with Sheilkh Nezamedding Owliya and he himself had a cautious instinct. His poetry and other works are overshadowed by his clear and knowledgeable nature out of higher religious trainings. This paper deals with the symbols of Shari’ah, mysticism and ethics in Majnoon va Leili couplet out of which the poet draws upon. Manuscript profile

        Most of the themes of Persian stories consist of ethical advices.

Therefore, the main objective of this study investigate the hidden didactic themes in this work of art and the main reason behind their application. Manuscript profile

        This article tries to answer this question "with regard to the fact that that the couplet Matla-ol-Anvar is the book of mysticism, research and didactic, which components of moral elements have been used in it?" In order to answer this question, first these moral elements were extracted from the text and moral excellences which are called Maqamat and the spiritual manners which are called Ahval were separated. Therefore, this article deals with individual and social behaviors considering Amir Khosrow Dihlavi’s criticism of factitious Sufis. Results show that Amir Khosrow in Matla-ol-Anvar, considering mystical morality, has invited the reader to moral individual manners such as self analysis, knowing God, purity, hermit, solitude, research, following preceptor and contentment. In moral manners (not too subtly separating individual and social moralities) he has dealt with generosity, beneficence, trusteeship, respecting parents, preserving limbs from sins and violence toward people, friendship etiquette, etc. Entirely one can visualize morality in Matla-ol-Anvar as practical.
