Rumi is widely considered one of the greatest Persian poets, and Mathnawi is widely considered his masterpiece.

The Mathnawi Maˈnavi, also known as the Masnavi or Mathnawi, is an extensive poetic work written by the Persian poet and mystic, Jalaluddin Rumi. The word “Mathnawi” means “couplets” in Arabic, and “Maˈnavi” means “spiritual” or “inner” in Persian. Hence, the Mathnawi Maˈnavi can be translated as “spiritual couplets.”

The Mathnawi, also known as Masnavi or “Spiritual Couplets of Maulana”, is a seminal work of both Sufism and Persian literature. Written by the renowned poet Jalal al-Din Muhammad Rumi, it is a collection of six books containing over 25,000 verses that guide Sufis on their journey toward a deeper understanding of love with God. Written in both Persian and Arabic, Rumi’s poetry has gained global popularity, with translations in many languages including Turkish, Urdu, French, Turkmen, Spanish, English, Arabic, German, Italian, Albanian, and Swedish. Reynold Alleyne Nicholson‘s translation of the Mathnawi is based on the oldest known manuscripts and is intended to be a faithful guide to the original Persian text.The first book of the six-volume collection serves as an introduction to the spiritual path toward a higher understanding. We are delighted that the Mathnawi of Rumi has found its way to you and look forward to you exploring the deep spiritual and literary insights it has to offer.
