Abstract
Most of the Islamic sciences and teachings root in deep knowledge of Quran. Islamic Mysticism which has glorified under the impact of Quranic verses, aims to understand the conscience of Quran. The Rumi’s Mathnavi, as a masterpiece which links theoretical and practical mysticism from the perspective of both structure and content, has been exposed under such efficacy. Just like Quran, Mathnavi uses allegory to express profound meanings and, in addition, its bulk is an imitation to Quran. In Mowlavi’s pattern, impressed by Quranic manner, the stories have been sometimes expressed redundantly, like the story of Moses, and sometimes have been repeated in a very short form. Furthermore, there is a kind of invisible influence of Quran on Rumi’s Mathnavi which is apparently untraceable but can be found through scrutinizing.
