Rumi is the true face of Islam, his lesson is a simple one, live life with passion and discover true love through understanding, and its a lesson for all of mankind.

I have several times visited Rumi`s Tomb in Konya, Turkey can play sufi music with "nay". But I know also basic of Islam which is compatible with Rumi`s ideas. I think you are in a great mistake to show Rumi like allowing sexual seducing. He was a saint himself and used some symbology to express holy ideas&facts to people who lived those times. These pictures show Rumi as if he was like a drunk darvish!!!
Please be respectful to high personalities and do not spoil minds of people, if you really don`t know about Islamic Sufism or "tasavvuf".
Thanks for your effords to introduce Rumi on internet but be more careful about showing respect to him.

salaam, you have to get your information in Dari books and not from books
written by iranis because they never say the truth.

Thanks for this great site and thanks for bringing his words online. Being
from his birth place town sometimes I feel the pride for it, similarly an
Iranian visitor of the site regretted to lose him to others. I think Mauvlana
will be ashamed of us if we say that he is ours' and not someone else's- he
certainly is from human kind's; even that may not fair, it is better to say that
he belongs to the existence whether that is in form of human being, animals,
plants or others. By no mean he is only Afghan, Iranian or Turkish; as very
truely poet said this about him in Farsi: "GITTI WATAN'E AOO SHUD AZ BAS KEH
KHWAAANANDASH" "YAK NIMA ZE TURKESTAN YAK NIMA ZE FARGHANA" And i dare to
translate it: The World Became His Place As He Is Regarded Half From Turkestan
Half From Farghana /or By Half From Turkestan By Half From Farghana

Mawlana Rumi is a great inspiration to the lovers and fans of sufism. The
dervishes are the greatest gifts from Allah the almighty who has in his infinite
mercy has blessed us with his beloved friends. the status of Rumi is always
among the highest and the the most distinct among the seekers of God. Ameen

This is a lovely website and I appreciate all the hard work that went into
this. I will be co-teaching a course at Brandeis on Spirituality with emphasis
on Sufism, Kabala and Christian mysticism. I enjoyed perusing the site! I feel a
mystic affinity to Rumi. There is a reason he is the best selling poet in
America at this time. Thank you again! Ruth Housman, Newton Centre, MA

i have just know Molavi this afternoon and suddenly fall in love with him.
His words touch my heart deeply and the meaning that is hidden behind the sweet
poem shake my heart. It is the God who sent him to the Earth and carved his name
on the terrain. It is very rare to have such an excellent poet and that's why
he's still been famous until now although the world has changed from his age to
ours.

I considered Roomi a traditional Mulla but your website has opened other
multiple aspects of his personality and poetry. I highly admire your efforts
which bring to light the essence of thoughts of such great philosophers as Roomi
and make them understandable to the Human race, irrespective of their difference
of culture, religion, language or race. Please accept my deepest appreciation.
