Abstract

      Kharazmi and Jami are great poets and mystics of the ninth century AH. They are also among the early commentators of Rumi's Masnavi. The interpretive allusions and mystical considerations of these two commentaries have been considered by many post-Rumi scholars. There are works about the states, works and life of these commentators, but there is no research yet on their methods to describe the Ney-nameh (eighteen verses at the beginning of Masnavi). This issue is undertaken in this research through the analytical recognition of the differences and commonalities and the methods of explaining the Ney-name from the perspective of Kharazmi and Jami. Both commentators are found to have made hermeneutic interpretation, and sometimes an eclectic method instead of discovering the theory of the author of Masnavi. They seek to discover, extract, and explain the mysticism of the epistle, which the text has the capacity for, but they have no reason for their explanations. Thus, they have made it difficult for the general audience of Masnavi to understand the concepts and meanings of the letter.
