THE STUDY OF MIR-HAYDAR’S MINIATURES IN MIRAJ NAMEH BASED ON SEVEN THEMES OF MASNAVI-MA’NAVI

This research studies some of the contents of the poetry of Rumi (the great mystic and poet of the seventh century AH) in Masnavī-yi Maʿnavī and adapts it to the images of the ascension of Shahrokhi’s Miʿraj Namieh.The Miʿraj Namih is one of the precious art works illustrated in the Herat School and The Timurid Era. The number of the letters in Mi’raj Namih is 61, in which it is possible to see the basis of the Hikmat. This research investigates the images of this book to discover the mystical concepts that the author has taken into account in his illustration. In this essay, we have mentioned just seven themes of the poems of Rumi. In the final chapter, the study of the illustrations was carried out in accordance with the terms of the Hikmat, such as light, the unity of existence, epiphany, al-Insān al-Kāmil, the tangible world and the universe of the unseen, the arc of ascension and the arch of descent, which Rumi has referred to them, and the matching of votes and images has been considered. It is hoped that this research be prolific and productive.
