Jalāl al-Dīn Rūmī, Maulana, 1207-1273
Jalāl al-Dīn Muḥammad Rūmī (Persian: جلالالدین محمد رومی), also known as Jalāl al-Dīn Muḥammad Balkhī (جلالالدین محمد بلخى), Mevlânâ/Mawlānā (Persian: مولانا, lit. 'our master') and Mevlevî/Mawlawī (Persian: مولوی, lit. 'my master'), but more popularly known simply as Rumi (30 September 1207 – 17 December 1273), was a 13th-century poet, Hanafi faqih, Islamic scholar, Maturidi theologian and Sufi mystic originally from Greater Khorasan in Greater Iran.[10][11] Rumi's influence transcends national borders and ethnic divisions: Iranians, Kurds, Tajiks, Turks, Greeks, Pashtuns, other Central Asian Muslims, as well as Muslims of the Indian subcontinent have greatly appreciated his spiritual legacy for the past seven centuries.[12][13] His poems have been widely translated into many of the world's languages and transposed into various formats. Rumi has been described as the "most popular poet"[14] and the "best selling poet" in the United States.[15][16]
Rumi's works are written mostly in Persian, but occasionally he also used Turkish,[17] Arabic[18] and Greek[19][20][21] in his verse. His Masnavi (Mathnawi), composed in Konya, is considered one of the greatest poems of the Persian language.[22][23] His works are widely read today in their original language across Greater Iran and the Persian-speaking world.[24][25] Translations of his works are very popular, most notably in Turkey, Azerbaijan, the United States and South Asia.[26] His poetry has influenced not only Persian literature, but also the literary traditions of the Ottoman Turkish, Chagatai, Kurdish, Urdu, Bengali and Pashto languages.[12][27][28] Rumi was born to native Persian-speaking parents,[17][18][34] in Wakhsh,[3] a village on the Vakhsh River in present-day Tajikistan.[3] The area, culturally adjacent to Balkh, is where Mawlânâ's father, Bahâ' uddîn Walad, was a preacher and jurist.[3] He lived and worked there until 1212, when he moved to Samarkand.[3] Baha' ud-Din became the head of a madrassa (religious school) and when he died, Rumi, aged twenty-five, inherited his position as the Islamic molvi. Mewlana had been spontaneously composing ghazals (Persian poems), and these had been collected in the Divan-i Kabir or Diwan Shams Tabrizi. Rumi found another companion in Salaḥ ud-Din-e Zarkub, a goldsmith. After Salah ud-Din's death, Rumi's scribe and favourite student, Hussam-e Chalabi, assumed the role of Rumi's companion. Rumi died on 17 December 1273 in Konya
