The book is divided into three books and is written by Hossam, the poet of Rumi’s poems. In the first book, he discusses the relationship between Shams Tabrizi and Jalal. In the second, he discusses the absence of Shams and the appearance of Salah to replace Shams and Salah’s role in establishing calm in Rumi’s soul after the state of turmoil that accompanied the relationship between the two poles of Sufism. In the third book, the narrator focuses on his relationship with Rumi and his role in documenting his philosophy and poems, and in return, the important role he played in monitoring and writing Shams’s character, following his sayings to convey them to the world. The book is seasoned with Rumi’s poems. Its narration is beautiful, and I think that Nihal did a good job.
