Tadhkirahnivīsī tradition in mystical literature is considered by some of the best writers of fictional literature in the manner of magical realism, like Marquez. Although fictional elements within the tales of Tadhkirahs are not exactly in accordance with the magical realism structure, and it is natural to be different to each other, however, they are the closest literary texts to structure of magical realism. In the section of “Structure Comparison” also referred to the best technique in magic realism that is the “plausibility technique”. Sufi Tadhkirahnigārān also have shown much attention to this method. And in “basic comparison” because of the emphasis on the intersection Real and Magic in Magical Realism, Sufi’s views expressed about the world of Immaterial bodies (Mundus Imaginalis) and Imagination. Also the most important issue in magical realism is the magic and wonderwork, and in Sufism Tadhkirahnigārī is the miracles of saints, Therefore, we also discussed the issue on Sufism. Finally, it be determined that the specific attention of certain writers such as Marquez to Sufi Tadhkirahs is rather regarded to the fictional structure and techniques of these texts.  Basics of Sufism which is throughout penetrated in mystical Tadhkirahs and sufis attained, considering them, their own fictional – narrative structure, was not been so agreement with magical realism.
