چکیده:
Sufi language is one of the most important tools for addressing the meanings of spiritual journeying and mystical stages; a language that contemporary Arabic poets have utilized effectively. Abdel Sabour is among the poets who are familiar with the great heritage of Iranian Sufism and, in his own words, the works of Attar and Rumi are part of his poetry. In his poem 'Notes of the Sufi Bishr al-Hafi' (Mudhakkirat al-Sufi Bishr al-Hafi), in which he uses mask (persona), he is influenced by Attar's 'The Conference of the Birds,' which is an allegorical and symbolic story of the soul's movement toward perfection; such that the poem moves within an existentialist atmosphere toward 'Unity of Existence' and the 'Perfect Man,' and ultimately, without reaching a conclusion, remains in an open form. In this research, which is conducted using the comparative literature method, by examining the similarities between the two aforementioned works, the influence of the poem 'Notes of the Sufi Bishr al-Hafi' from the theme of the journey to discover truth in the story of the birds in 'The Conference of the Birds' has been demonstrated.

In his poem "Memories of a Barefoot Sufi (Mudhakkirat al-Sufi bi-al-Hafi)" in which he uses mask (persona), he is under the influence of Attar's Mantiq al-Tayr, which is an allegorical and symbolic story of the soul's movement towards perfection; such that the poem moves within an existentialist atmosphere towards "Wahdat al-Wujud" (Unity of Existence) and the "Perfect Man," and finally, without reaching an end, it remains in an open form.
In this research, conducted using the comparative literature method, by examining the similarities between the two aforementioned works, the influence of the poem "Memories of a Barefoot Sufi" from the inner essence of the truth-seeking journey in the story of the birds in Mantiq al-Tayr has been demonstrated.
This 2 research pursues the application of an important characteristic of these two literary works, namely the "journey of discovering the truth of the perfect man," and while presenting the similarities and differences of the two texts and their evidence, it proves the influence of Attar on Salah Abdel Sabour's text and interprets the later text by placing it within the intellectual current of Sufism between Persian and Arabic, in order to clarify the artistic value of this literary exchange.
- In Attar's Mantiq al-Tayr, the Hoopoe is the guide for the birds toward the Simurgh, and in the poem Bashar Hafi's Notes, Sheikh Bassam al-Din holds this role.
