چکیده:
The subject of 'Ghazals of Shams', the eternal work of Maulana Jalal al-Din Mohammad Balkhi, expresses mystical themes and celestial love. Throughout these pure ghazals, Maulana has also used mythological symbols to explain mystical themes and other poetic concepts. In this article, we have examined mythological elements including characters, creatures, and symbols that have a mystical character and manifestation in 'Ghazals of Shams'. The elements, creatures, and characters examined in this article include Rostam, Zal, Kay Qubad, Sohrab, Esfandiar, Zahhak, Kay Kavus, Mani, Kay Khosrow, and legendary creatures such as Mount Qaf, Homa, Anqa, and Simurgh, whose most important source is Ferdowsi's 'Shahnameh'. The result of the research is that Maulana, by extracting mythological and epic elements from precious epic works such as Ferdowsi's 'Shahnameh', has utilized these elements to better explain the mystical themes and concepts in 'Ghazals of Shams'; to the extent that researchers of mystical literature have considered it a prominent and valuable example of mystical epic.

In Maulana's works too, Kay Khosrow is more often a symbol and myth of kingship and sovereignty: Listen from the father and the brother, for it is called sovereignty that the dust of Kay Khosrow dies before him, Sanjar (Ibid: 148) In the following verses, Maulana has created a connection between the moon and Kay Khosrow, and this matter indicates the semi-mystical nature of Kay Khosrow's character in the mythological texts of ancient Iran; to the extent that "in the religious traditions of Zoroastrians and the Avesta, he is mentioned as the one who rides the heavenly Serosh, who returns at the end of time and rises to assist Saoshyant" (Doostkhah, 600:1370): All are moon-like, not moon-like; all are Kay Khosrow and king All are like Joseph in a well; how dark is it from you (Ibid: 315) The fusion of national, religious, and mystical mythical characters, Imam Ali(a) and his titles Imam Ali(a) is one of the great religious figures who is always presented as a religious myth in the context of moral virtues such as justice and chivalry.
