Simile which is one of the most important and frequent of semantic deviation in mystical poems, has been used by mystics for creating poetic images and expressing their own thoughts.
In this study authors criticized and discussed the deviated similes in Ibn Alfarez and molavi’s complete works with analytical method. This study shows that frequent use of compact similes is more than spread similes in their poems (both poets), because this method results in length in mental challenge and hesitation.

Through this, they make their words prominent and leads to more literary pleasure of readers. although Ibn Alfarez purpose was to explain exalted concepts and holy command for reader’s mind, and was interested in application of perceptible simile to rational simile, but Molavi uses rational simile more than Ibn Alfarez. Perceptible to perceptible simile are very frequent In Molavi’s poems because of his mystical and spiritual taste. Also frequency of spread similes in his poems is more than Ibn Alfarez.
