كدام افضل است؟ عشق يا محبت

Which is Better: Love or Kindness?

The word "Love" has been blended with persian literature such a high level that if we remove from persian literature, nothing remais except a body without life . But it is very strange that the mystics of the first centuries hasnʹt used thise word much; Besides , this word hasnʹt been come in the Koran and there is no value for it in the words of the Holy prohet (peace Be Upon Him) and the religious leaders. Without thought, this matter brings to oneʹs mind that why there is little atention to this subject. This essay is an attempt to give an answer to this defined question. In this essay, firstly, we inspected the words "Love" and "kindness" as words and and have expressed the differences between those two words, and then have presented causes and reasons as a reply according to two points of view: lexical and historical aspects. We hope that this attempt can be an introduction for future researches.
