Abstract
Theological, religious, and mystical ideas and topics in Masnavi are mainly presented through anecdotes and stories, where mutual concepts such as effort and trust, poverty and wealth, determinism and free will, and reason and love, which are also controversial in theological discussions, are the subject of storytelling. Sometimes, the ending and conclusion of the story conflict with the discourse logic of the story, and that is when the discourse logic of one of the interlocutors, who happens to be the opposite character of the hero of the story, seems correct or more correct in terms of reason, custom, social, and even religion, and the story encounters a dialogue deadlock. In such a situation, by introducing the metaphysical issue, Rumi directs the conversation to another discourse paradigm, contrary to the reasonable and logical process. Albert Camus calls this departure and appeal to the supernatural "leap". This research, through the descriptive-analytical method and based on the opinion of Camus and the philosophical views of Kierkegaard, analyzed the stories "The King and the Maid", "The Lion and the Rabbit", and "The One Who Prayed in the Days of David to Give Me a Day Without Suffering". The results of the study show that in all three stories, Rumi takes the story out of the discursive impasse by introducing a metaphysical matter such as action based on inspiration and revelation in solitude and altar and the coming of a divine element. This leap, through the mediation of symbolization as a matter of completeness, justifies its decoding and religious and mystical interpretations and issues a definitive opinion.
