Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: This article explores the typological and historical classification of manaqibs (hagiographies) related to unnamed saints mentioned in Jalaluddin Rumi’s 'Masnawi-yi Manawi'. It analyzes the narrative techniques used in the Masnawi, how individual manaqibs intertwine with one another and serve as tools of moral and spiritual instruction. The study reveals the structural coherence of Rumi's style, the symbolism behind saintly characteristics, and the Sufi understanding of divine justice, patience, and union with the divine.
