Maulana Rumi
Maulana Jalal-ud-Din-Rumi (1207 – 17 December 1273), is also known as Jalal ad-Din
Muḥammad Balkhi or Maulana Rumi (Mawlana Rumi). He was a 13th-century
Persian poet, jurist, Islamic scholar, theologian, and Sufi mystic. Rumi's works are
written mostly in Persian, but he also used Turkish, Arabic, and Greek in his verse.
His poetic works are Divan-e-Shams Tabrizi or Divan-e-Kabir and Masnawi Manawi
(Mathnawi-e-Manawi). His prose works are Fih Ma Fih (his talks and lectures),
Majalis-e-Saba (his seven sermons or lectures) and Makatib (letters). We are
presenting his poetry translated by Abhay Tiwari.
