Abstract

Rahat al-Sodoor and Aya al-Sorroor are among the few surviving books in the history of the Seljuks that were written in 603 AH. Many scholars have argued that this is a mere plagiarism, and that Najmuddin Ravandi is the one who misused the Seljuk letter, a book written twenty-one years ago, to display it in a different form and by adding material to That or the abbreviation of that book, has achieved peace and has placed its name in the ranks of historians as well as writers of technical and artificial prose. This article, unlike other scholars who have often transcribed each other's beliefs, states that although there is ample evidence of plagiarism in Rahat al-Sodoor; But there are points in this book that indicate that there is evidence that the Seljuk letter was borrowed, not stolen, and this fact is confirmed by the silence of many great literary figures and historians of literature.
