Abstract

From long ago, the words of the Prophet of Islam and religious leaders and divine saints have found their way into Persian poetry and prose. Poets and writers of the Persian language have tried to strengthen their words by religious ideas due to their love and devotion to the Household of the Prophet. This state has continued up to the present moment and become the source of pride for all Persian speakers. Nahj alBalagha is one of the surces of inspiration. One of the themes in Nahj al-Balagha is theology embodied in sermons like khutba 1, 49, 65, 155, 179. Among Persianspeaking poets inspired by Nahj al-Balagha is Fayz, whose mystical poetry reflects the monotheistic teachings of Nahj al-Balagha. Arising from his heart, Fayz’s poems allow the understanding of the high and sublime concepts of the precious words of Nahj al-Balagheh. In line with that, the questions raised in this study are: 1. which themes illustrare the highest level of influence of Nahj al-Balagha on Fayz's poem? 2. Is the effect of Nahj al-Balagha on Fayz's poems verbal or conceptual?
