Abstract: (1059 Views)

Resaleye Qushayriyye, as Ab-ul-Qasim Abd-ul-karim ibn Hawazin Qushayri's work (11th century A.D), is one of the most celebrated books of Sufieh teachings which has been written in two chapters. In this compilation, hunger and poverty acceptances have been considered as one of the preliminary behaviours for refining, polishing, and illuminating the hearts and minds of the human beings. Considering the topic of poverty and voluntary hunger in 14th and 42nd chapters of his "Resale", Qushayri as an active learned mystic, has done justice to the significance of poverty and hunger and their role in human's spiritual elevation. Being in conformity with Qushayri's opinion, Rumi also has remarkable ideas on confirming the importance of hunger. The article's writer, by applying a descriptive-analytic method, by comparing these two attitudes, wanted to put emphasis on showing their coincidence on the fact that tolerating hunger and wearing the cloth of voluntary poverty leads to being secure from rebellions and entering the territory of spiritual facts. Furthuremore, that is an enterance for eternal non-existence and intrinsic poverty.

Keywords: Poverty, Hunger, Mysticism, Qushayri, Rumi.
