چکیده:
Kalila and Dimna is a very famous and unique book. This book was translated from Sanskrit to Pahlavi during the Sassanid era, and Abdullah ibn al-Muqaffa' translated it from Pahlavi to Arabic. In the era of Nasr ibn Ahmad Samani, Abu al-Fadl Muhammad Bal'ami rendered it into Persian prose. Rudaki, the famous poet, versified it, and the book we hold today is by Abu al-Ma'ali Nasrallah ibn Muhammad Abd al-Hamid, who translated it from the Kalila of Ibn al-Muqaffa' in the middle of the sixth century AH, during the reign of Bahram Shah Ghaznavi. Abd al-Azim Khan Qarib, a professor at the University of Tehran, edited it, and it has been published repeatedly. After the late Qarib, Professor Mojtaba Minovi edited it from various manuscripts and published it. Despite the theoretical precision that Minovi applied to this work, some inadequacies are noticeable in certain phrases, which I present for the judgment of experts in this critical article, to see what is accepted and what is considered.

Journal of Persian Language and Literature Vol. 4-No. 01-Spring 99 A Critique of "Kalila and Demna" Edited by Mojtaba Minovi Dr. Barat Zanjani Professor, Faculty of Literature and Humanities - University of Tehran Abstract Kalila and Demna is a very famous and unique book.
Munshi 25:5431) The late Minovi has interpreted "achieving" as the act of abandoning something (Ibid: footnote on page 25) Our view: "Achieving" in Kalila and Demna is used in the sense of obtaining, and on page 301 of the same book, we read this phrase: "And there has been no indication that no benefit or apparent advantage has been achieved from it," and in poetic and prose texts, it has been used extensively in this same sense, including: ز بد کردن آمد بحاصل زیان اگر بد کنی غم بری از میان (Ferdowsi, quoted from Dehkhoda Dictionary) "Things became regular and desires were fully achieved (Tarikh-i Bayhaqi).
Munshi 611:5431) and also in this phrase: "Just as someone sees a yira'ah in the darkness of night, thinks it is fire and becomes mistaken about it, when he takes it in hand, it is determined that it is a reed" (Ibid: 123) Minovi writes in the footnote of page u (Introduction): It might be objected against me why, where the correct recording of such a word exists in one of the manuscripts, even if a later one, or even a printed one, I have not considered the benefit of Nasr Allah Munshi and have not attributed the error to the scribes but rather considered it to be from the author of the book?
