Introduction of Mawlana

Mawlana full name is Mawlana Jalaluddin Mohammad Balkhi and he is

born in 30th September 1207 in Balkh or Mazar Sharif

Explanation of Sufism
Sufism is a form of mysticism that it’s done by a special group of people
and it emphasizes on spiritual closeness with the god.
Collapse Of Khurasan
The 12 years old Mawlana learned his elementary and religious
science from his father, his family linage goes back to Abu Bakr
Sedeq who was the first Khalifa of Muslims.

In the way of knowledge

Mawlana and his family lived in Karaman peacefully for several

years, he was 18 years old when his mother Fatima Kahtoon
died and the governor of Seljuks told them that the situation in
Qonia is better for them so they immigrated there.
Getting familiar with Shams Tabrezi

Except teaching Mawlana was also reading the biggest

books of his era. Books like HEIYA OL OLOM and more
until 38 years old he was still studying, until someone came
to Qonia and destroyed all of Mawlana’s sciences and he
was Shamsi Tabrizi.

Immersed in Sufism
After disappearing of shams disciples believed that Mawlana
will return to his ordinary life and setup his educational classes
but such thing didn’t happen, totally after seeing of Mawlana
and shams Mawlana wasn’t the former Mawlana, Mawlana had
changed to a turbulent dervish he was constantly going to Sama
and ecstasy ceremony.

A little description of Sama:

Nowadays it’s known one of the rituals in Islam religion but its
history goes back to before Islam.
Appeal of Mawlana

After that no news came from shams, Mawlana fascinated to another

young boy by the name of “Salahuddin Zarkob” known as Sufi Zarkob.

After Salahaldin Zarkoob, Mawlana replaced him with Hesamuddin

Chalabi, Esamuddin Chalabi had a father that he was fame among Qonia
but they had Kurt originality and this case made the people of Qonya not
to be happy with Esamuddin chalabi as well.
