A Look at Attar's Critical Approach

Attar’s dynamic mysticism is not inconsiderate of man’s destiny. Attar, in his poems, has a special critical attitude and criticizes the society, the rulers, and the evil and satanic features that endanger the human identity. The present research focuses on Attar’s most important critical views in political, social, and cultural areas in a descriptive-analytic way. Compared to other mystics, Attar seems to have paid more attention to social weaknesses and criticized them.
