نگاهي به نماد خورشيد در تمثيلات سهروردي

Symbol of Sun Suhrawardiʹs Allegorical Works

From the earliest period of Persian poetry, the sun has been a subject of attention, and in the 6th and 7th AH, KhaghanI Shirvani, Attar Nishaburi and Mowlana Jalal-al Din Balkhi employed the image of the sun in their poems. But for Shahab al-Din Suhrawardi (1155-1191), the Persian philosopher and mystic, the light and the sun have a special significance; according to him all creation is a successive outflow of the original supreme Light of Lights (Nur al- Anvar). This article tries to analyze the symbol of sun in the Allegorical Works of Suhrawardi, especially Loqat-e Muran.
