        1 - The Saints’ Kiramat in Islamic Thought; Mu'tazilite Critical Point of View
        Amir Hossein Hatami
        Kiramat of saints was one of the most discussed topics in Islamic thought kiramat in general means the possibility of occurrence of a marvel by a person other than the Prophet (Valli). Although Kiramat and mo’jiza (miracle) are both marvels, one is done by the Val More
        Kiramat of saints was one of the most discussed topics in Islamic thought kiramat in general means the possibility of occurrence of a marvel by a person other than the Prophet (Valli). Although Kiramat and mo’jiza (miracle) are both marvels, one is done by the Valli (saint) and the latter by the Prophet. The possibility of the occurrence of Kiramat by a person other than the Prophet has always been a controversy. Generally, all Islamic sects have confirmed this possibility except for the Mu'tazilites. They believe that Kiramat and miracles do not have a significant difference, so they can eliminate the function of miracles (which prove the prophecy of the prophets). This research is based on several important sources of Mu'tazilites, seeks to find out the reason for the Mu'tazilite’s point of view. It seems that denying the possibility of occurrence and occurrence of Kiramat, by Mu’tazilite has been rooted in their intellectual and epistemological bases. Manuscript profile

        Dreaming is one of the puzzles that has preoccupied the mind of man from way back. It has been discussed in many fields such as religions, mythology, psychology, literature and mysticism. Dreams have been categorized into some types like veridical dream, sound dream and so on. As a source of inspiration, mystics and Sufis used dream to solve many of their problems and they had great value for it. Attar of Nishapur has narrated many dreams of Sufis and saints of God in his book, Tazkirat-al-Auliyā. By using descriptive-analytical method, the present article tries to consider the dreams narrated in this book. Also, the characters of the dreams, their subjects and their relationship with facts of life are considered. The results show that many of the dreams are rooted in real life of mystics and Sufis. They intended to express their dreams, because they were considered as part of the Prophecy and messages from the Divine world. Manuscript profile

        As the first hero of Shāhnāmeh, Kāve Āhangar (Kaveh the Blacksmith) is one of the characters whose name is not mentioned in Avestan and Pahlavi texts; some scholars believe that he is an emerging figure in Iranian epic literature. According to the Shāhnāmeh, the activities of Kaveh were to help Fereydun in the uprising against Zahāk and to build a national flag for Iranians. After completing these two tasks, he suddenly leaves the scene and faces an uncertain end. But in some folklore texts and books of Naqqali, the story of this heroic figure is narrated in a different way. In these texts, he is introduced not as a national hero, but as one of the saints who, with the help of the sacred and supernatural forces, rises up against the demonic forces. Based on folklore texts and books of Naqqali and by using descriptive-analytical method, the present article tries to explain the narrative themes related to the life of Kaveh. The authors believe that many of the fictional themes of his life – such as reaching the station of saints, making the flag called Derafsh Kavian with help of Divine names and motifs, casting spells on demonic characters, knowing the language of birds, choosing a voluntary death - have been borrowed from the stories concerning the life of saints, mystics and charismatic kings of Iran.
