abstract="The present study aims at comparing Gandhi and Rumi in terms of the concept of &quot;non-violence.&quot; Non-violence is Gandhi's most important thesis and one of the most significant keys to approaching his thought. The results of this study, conducted in a descriptive-comparative way using content analysis, suggest that non-violence should also be considered as a pillar of Rumi's doctrine. Given the numerous passages in Masnavi that explicitly discourage violence, one is led to infer that non-violence has an indispensible anchoring point in Rumi. Implicitly, it is argued, a large part of Rumi's thought is linked to Gandhi's idea of non-violence. This is because Rumi is mindful of the infrastructures in addressing any phenomenon. In other words, all of Mowlana's beliefs such as tolerance, altruism, modesty, anonymity [avoiding conspicuity], the unity of human nature, the unity of religions, and inclusiveness are directed toward human spiritual development and excellence. The result is nothing but a self-made and perfected person who is in peace with himself/herself and all parts of the world. Above all, it is the idea of love in Rumi's thinking which alone repudiates violence in all its manifestations.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
