A Critical Study on the Criticisms about Rumi's Tolerance Thinking in the Recent century
Rumi is the master of the great Masnavi is free-thinking mystics who has made and introduced peace and tolerance with other thinkers as one of his intellectual and behavioral foundations. In his works, in various languages and ways, he has exhorted and promoted this idea, and has called upon all to follow this individual and social conduct. Like many of his other views, Rumi's tolerance thinking has been criticized and denied. In the present study, the critiques about this Rumi's idea have been investigated with an analytical-critical approach and using scientific methods of text and citation analysis. The purpose of this assessment, in addition to presenting and critiquing the views of the disbelievers in the present age, is to arrive at a clearer and more realistic understanding of this way of Rumi's thinking. According to the studies, it is understood that the peaceful coexistence of the followers of different religions in the society (social pluralism) in Rumi's thinking, following the sources and foundations of Islam, has a special place. But religious pluralism, in spite of some similarities and homogeneities, is not about Rumi's acceptance and approval. It is also clear from the analysis and citation of the Rumi's anecdotes that in fact the pluralist reading of the Rumi is a flawed understanding that some intellectuals or critics have mistakenly or fallaciously acquired in the thoughts and ideas and inappropriate citations of Masnabi's quotes and anecdotes.
