The 7th Shams and Mowlana International Scientific Conference will be underway from October 2 to October 4, 2021, opened from 5:30 PM to 9:30 PM local time.
Shams-e Tabrizi (1185–1248) was the spiritual instructor of Mowlana Jalal al-Din Balkhi (Rumi) and is referenced with great reverence in Rumi's poetic collection, in particular ‘Diwan-e Shams-e Tabrizi’ (‘The Works of Shams of Tabriz’). Tradition holds that Shams taught Rumi in seclusion in Konya for a period of forty days, before fleeing for Damascus. The tomb of Shams was recently nominated to be a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Mowlana Jalaluddin Mohammad Balkhi is the great Iranian thinker and the most eminent figure in Persian culture and literature who lived in the Ilkhanian period in the Roman land.
September 29th and 30th in Iran are named as the day of commemoration of Shams Tabrizi and Rumi, respectively.
