From Miracles to Superstitions: Accentuating ASRAR -AL- TOHID and MAGHAMAT -E- AHMADE JAM
Author(s):
Abstract:
Miracles recounted in Sufi’s books during different historical periods have been traced by narrative، rhetoricaland semantic developments due to various reasons; so that in early periods they have had simple interpretations and fairly believable contents. But with the passage of time and in line with political and social changes، the simplicity of these miracles has changed to exaggeration. This issue is peaked in sixth century so that، at times، it leaves no space for any justification. This paper، accentuating two mystic texts of ASRAR -AL- TOHID as the surviving heritage of mystical tradition of fourth century and MAGHAMAT -E- AHMADE JAM as the surviving heritage of mystical tradition of sixth century، as well as highlighting the dominant aspect of each work، aims to investigate the whys and hows of this development and its ddetailed reasons regarding the developmental considerations taken into account in the narration of these miracles over these long years. Undoubtedly، political upheavals and social turmoil، several years of Seljuk Turks’ dominations، and as a corollary، the sharp decline of rational science and a downturn in rationalism in sixth century، are inextricably connected with content and rhetorical decline of miracles recounted in Mysticism.
