The impact of the Eloquence of Mavlavi in preference of fact to wisdom in Mathnavi

The present article is an attempt to investigate the place of reason from the point of view of Mawlavi in the tow areas of argumentation and intuitive perceptions and experiences of schools of argumentation and mysticism respectively. In intuitive perception, we have focused on the knowledge of Allah and for reasons we have referred to it as reality. The criterion for our investigation has only been Mawlavi’s Mthnavi, not all his works. in Mawlavi’s Mthnavi, reason in creation and substance has a unique place regarding the function and management of material life and gaining argumentative sciences as well as perceptive and experiential knowledge, so as no substance can achieve its status and Mawlavi refers to it with high admiration. In Mawlavi’s view, however, the reason is not allowed to enter the realm of “the other sense”, knowledge of aesthetics and intuition perceptions beyond material reasoning, understanding habitual acts and miracles of the prophets and especially, understanding the beauty of the Right and arriving at the reality of knowledge the result of which is love.
