        The present research studies symbols of Suhrawardī’s letters in descriptive – comparative method and analyzes the reasons of scarcity in finding the mysteries, similarities and differences with Attar’s Book of Tragedy. Application of mythical, personal, innovative and major symbols increase ambiguity in Suhrawardī’s allegories. He offered mystical – philosophical interpretation out pf mythical symbols and his understanding made his words more difficult and decreases his works’ attractiveness by his theosophical viewpoint. On the other hand applying short stories and forgoing scientific, philosophical and cosmological expressions increase understanding his words’ structure as well as attractiveness. The most important difference between Suhrawardī and Attar is their ideology; in Suhrawardī’s works, inside messenger or nous is the leader while in Attar’s Book of Tragedy, Mohammad – the Prophet – aids the wisdom and is the light of guidance.

           The art of imagination as a literary element, containing critical components such as image, emotion, language, reality and etc., is highly emphasized in studying and criticizing a literary script. Imam Ali has remarkably used this literary element to convey religious, ethical and social concepts. Since this literary element is closely related to style and different types of that, thus we tried to study the art of imagination in Imam Ali's letters based on various kinds of styles. This study, which uses descriptive-analytical method, concluds that "style" plays the pivotal role in the expression of literary imaginations in Imam Ali's letters and  in determining the position and success of their application.

        6 - The Role of “Experiencer” in the Philosophy of Illumination Based on the Ideational Metafunction; The Case Study: Lughat-i Muran (The language of Termites) and Safir-i Simurgh (The Calling of the Simurgh)
        Abbāsali Vafāie Fereshteh Milādi
        During his/her suluk (spiritual journey) and intuition, a mystic establishes a relationship between himself/herself and nature and God, revealing something beyond reason. It is called "mystical experience". This experience is ambiguity when it comes in the form of langu More
        During his/her suluk (spiritual journey) and intuition, a mystic establishes a relationship between himself/herself and nature and God, revealing something beyond reason. It is called "mystical experience". This experience is ambiguity when it comes in the form of language; in this way, different narrators create different narrations from "a single experience". In mystical texts, on one hand, the author tries to convey her/his thoughts, and on other hand, to "hide the secrets from strangers (na-ahlān)". By using descriptive-analytical method and based on the ideational metafunction, the present article tries to study the role of "experiencer" in the philosophy of illumination (Falsafeh Eshraq). In his treatises, Suhrawardi, as the founder of this school of thought, refers to themes like separation from higher world, spiritual nostalgia, removing barriers to suluk and meeting the old wise man, and focuses on spiritual journey (suluk) to the world of light and releasing from the worldly prison. The findings show that by overcoming the illuminate (Eshraqi) worldview, the relational processes have become mentalistic processes in the verbal sphere. Suhrawardi, first, describes the symbolic concepts with the aim of creating a tangible space, and then, interprets them by creating a space for dialogue. Finally, as the old wise man, he expresses the abstract concepts. Manuscript profile
