     Deconstruction was first introduced in the thought of Jacques Derrida as a way of re-reading texts and questioning its presuppositions. This type of critique seeks to find new meanings by finding binary oppositions in the text and disrupting the superiority and domination of one side over the other, and on the other hand, by discovering gaps and discontinuities that have arisen in the text against the author's will, and discovering new meanings in later re-readings supported by in-text cues. The book of Ronaq al-Majalis is one of the works of Islamic Sufism which in this research, one of its anecdotes would be examined for finding some possible signifieds for the signifiers mentioned in the text and assigning them different meanings that are among dozens of possible meanings which the text might have.
