Abstract
Complaining about the people of the time is one of the recurring themes and concepts in the poems of poets and writers. This is due to various reasons including political, social, cultural protests and personal issues. Considering the complaints raised in the poetry and prose of each period, we can reach a relative view of the cultural, political and social conditions of each period of history. In the meantime, the complaints in the words of sages and philosophers who have a special view of the world and existence are very important. In the next essay, the author has studied and analyzed the social section of the glory of the people of his time in MullaSadra'sMasnavi using the descriptive-analytical method. According to the research, it is clear that MullahSadra, which has specifically dealt with the glory and complaints of the corruptions of his time, has used hypocrisy and pretense more than any other issue, and in this way, he has taken advantage of the barman writing and lyrical literature. Shamelessness and disloyalty of people, cruelty of friends, supremacy of the ignorant over the wise and the discredit of grace and knowledge are some of the most important issues that have been addressed in this complaint. With the social analysis of these issues, we can come to the conclusion that the main factor in the Safavi period is excessive attention to appearances, misuse of science and mysticism, valuing appearances and forgetting the real values among the court and consequently among the society.
