Abstract
A rhetoric method being used to show the purpose of a statement is assimilation of allegory; an assimilation whose resemblance is not out of an apparent and manifested affair and needs being paraphrased. Holy Quran and Nahj al-Balaghah which consist of the most rhetoric expressions, from critics’ point of view, use this method of illustration to describe the things that are beyond men’s understanding. This research wants to allege and demonstrate some of these descriptive illustrations to show a whit of the beauties and rhetoric of these two valuable sources. Through analysis and comparison of different subjects and symbols used in assimilations of allegories in these two works, tables, charts and proper results will be offered
