Abstract

    This article analyzes the concept of Divine Love, which holds a central place in the heritage of the great thinker Jalaluddin Rumi. Through the work "Fihi Ma Fihi," chosen as the object of study, the author’s definitions of the concept of love, issues of purifying the heart, restraining the ego (nafs), and the spiritual perfection of man are explored. The article comparatively studies the transformational characteristics of Sufi love within the human psyche in relation to the meanings of Quranic verses and Hadiths, revealing the contemporary significance of Rumi's philosophy.
