{"product_id":"rumi-farhad-hemmatkhah-kalibar-9798273722804","title":"Rumi: Life, Stories, and Quotes","description":"Across centuries and continents, the voice of Jalal al-Din Rumi continues to echo - a voice that speaks not to the intellect alone, but to the heart's deepest longing. Born in the thirteenth century in Balkh (now Afghanistan) and later settled in Konya, Rumi was not merely a poet, but a mystic, a teacher, and a bridge between the human and the divine. His words, born from love and longing, transcend language, time, and culture, reminding us that the journey of the soul is one and the same for all who seek truth.\u003cbr\u003eRumi's life was itself a poem - a path shaped by transformation. Once a scholar deeply rooted in theology, he became a flame of divine passion after meeting the wandering mystic Shams of Tabriz. From that encounter emerged not only one of the world's greatest spiritual friendships but also the birth of a new kind of poetry - one that spoke directly to the soul rather than the mind. Through the turning of his spirit, Rumi invited humanity to dance, to listen, and to awaken.\u003cbr\u003eThis book, \u003ci\u003eRumi: Life, Stories, and Quotes\u003c\/i\u003e, is a humble attempt to enter that garden of light. The first part reveals the story of his life - not as a chain of dates and events, but as a living journey toward divine union. The following stories, inspired by his \u003ci\u003eMasnavi\u003c\/i\u003e and other writings, retell timeless parables in a voice accessible to the modern reader, yet faithful to their spiritual essence. Each tale carries a hidden mirror, reflecting the eternal truths that Rumi sought to unveil: the power of love, the illusion of separation, the joy of surrender.\u003cbr\u003eFinally, the selected quotes and reflections present the distilled wisdom of Rumi - words that continue to breathe across centuries, awakening hearts and guiding seekers toward the inner Beloved.\u003cbr\u003eMay this book serve as both a doorway and a mirror: a doorway to Rumi's world of luminous words, and a mirror in which every reader may glimpse their own soul - longing, searching, and, at last, remembering its divine origin.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Farhad Hemmatkhah Kalibar\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798273722804\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/09\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.31d","brand":"Farhad Hemmatkhah Kalibar","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48447136104703,"sku":"9798273722804","price":12.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1c5ca519-e759-4852-bcc5-48360b894c13.jpg?v=1777229073","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rumi-farhad-hemmatkhah-kalibar-9798273722804","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
