Persian Short Stories by Jalaluddin Rumi | Bookcast #149
from A Book A Day - A Literary Podcast from India · host Kalampedia
Rumi was a 13th-century Persian poet, Hanafi faqih, Islamic scholar, Maturidi theologian, and Sufi mystic originally from Greater Khorasan in Greater Iran. While mostly known for his poetry and Sufism, Rumi has also written a few short stories - written in his own poetic style, of course - which are quite popular across the world. I narrate a couple of these short stories in this podcast.
