Points I learned from Elder Rome

I found a connection in his words.

I will rise again by the grace

of the Elder of Rome

The closed office is the secret of science!

Maulana Balkhi is one of the geniuses of classical Persian-Tajik poetry. He considered man to be the greatest miracle of creation and encouraged and promoted their unity and unity. According to Maulana, peace and reconciliation, love and romance are able to make the earth a relative of the sky.

Muhammad Rumi, the son of Bahauddin Walad, was born in 1207 in the family of a clergyman in the city of Balkh. His childhood was spent with his father. His father travels to Hijaz to visit Mecca. Bahauddin, the father of the younger Jalaluddin, on his return from the trip, liked the Kunia province of Rum, and chose it as his permanent residence. Jalaluddin Rumi dies in 1273 in Kunia.

Jalaluddin Rumi started his literary and creative activity very early. The scope of creativity of Jalaluddin Rumi is extensive. His work consists of “Spiritual Masnavi” which has six notebooks and “Devon Kabir”. “Masnawi mahnavi” is a philosophical work, dedicated to various life topics. “Masnavi Manavi” was created ten years before the death of the poet. “Masnavi Ma'navi” is considered one of the greatest outstanding works of Tajik Persian classical literature. “Masnavi Manavi” consists of various stories, all of which are filled with morals. In addition to “Masnavi Manavi” by Jalaluddin Rumi, we still have his other works “Letter” and “Devani Shamsi Tabrezi”. Jalaluddin Rumi's poetry consists of two parts. A part of his works is sung in a poetic way. The second part of his poetry consists of ghazal and rubayot. “Devan Kabir” contains more than three thousand ghazals and other types of poems, including rubai. The main place in the court is occupied by his poetry. He composed most of his ghazals under the pseudonym Shamsi Tabrezi. Therefore, his poetry is known as “Kulliyot Shamsi Tabrezi” or “Kulliyot Shams” or “Devan Kabir”.

        The literary legacy of Maulana Balkhi is very rich and colorful. It forms a poem in a new way. Divan of Shamsi Tabrezi, this is the book of love and the song of inner freedom of man, this is the song of miracles that strengthens the kingdom of man over being, earth over the universe, love over faith, life over death, peace over war. There is no doubt that more than the heartwarming ghazals of Maulana were sung in dance and industry gatherings, dancing and kicking under the stirring sound of tambourine and rubab in the conversation of friends and relations.

It is from here that the song of life is always sung and the melody is pleasing to the ear. Perhaps that is why most of his ghazals have a lyrical and musical quality. In terms of content, Maulana's ghazals are about love. However, the topic in his ghazals was made in a special way. Maulana Balkhi's love had a material basis and originated from earthly material. Jalaluddin Balkhi is one of the most prolific Tajik writers. He has amazed the world with his literary legacy. Jalalildin Rumi describes the beauty of a person in the outward and inward beauty: Let the outward image perish, know, the world of meaning shall remain eternal. The meaningful poems of the poet have gained a certain position in our society even today.

Rumi puts the rank and position of the human above all, and this issue covers one of the most important aspects of his creativity: A thousand years is the way from you to being a Muslim, another thousand years to the limit of humanity. Another theme of the poet's work is respect and status of a teacher. Because from Rumi's point of view, in order to reach the peak of hopes and dreams, the sufferings and labors of the master and his labors, learnings and guidance are necessary: No one could stand before him,

Iron did not become a sharp dagger.

         No Maulana became the mullah of Rome,

until the death of Shamsi of Tabriz.

Rumi is of the opinion that people should consult with each other in solving life issues. Because the work with advice is useful and interesting: Counseling gives insight and alertness, May minds be helped by minds. JalalilDin Rumi describes the beauty of a person in the outward and inward beauty: Let the outward image perish, know, the world of meaning shall remain eternal. The meaningful poems of the poet have gained a certain position in our society even today. Rumi's work is especially interesting from the point of view that the poet uses a simple style for the purpose of public understanding of his works and uses the forms of Tajik folk poetry, such as lyrical songs in the ghazal and allegories in the masnavi. “Spiritual Masnavi” is considered one of the greatest works of Persian-Tajik literature and covers the philosophical and mystical thoughts of Mawlawi. From the beginning to the end of the masnavi, both the wisdom, the plot, and the artistic images are related to each other, and in general, it represents a great temple of knowledge.

Rumi's influence transcends national borders and ethnic differences: Iranians, Tajiks, Turks, Greeks, Pashtuns, and other Muslims of Central and South Asia have highly appreciated his spiritual legacy over the past seven centuries. His poems have been translated into many languages of the world and transferred to various formats. Rumi has been described as” the most popular poet” and “the best selling poet” in the US.
