Mevlana, like Plato, Aristotle, Farabi and other philosophers before him, believes that God can be proved rationally and he explains the relevant proofs in his Mesnevi with metaphors, stories, and fables. These indicate that it is possible to deduce the most perfect Being from the imperfect things in the universe; it is also possible to deduce the existence of God from the fact that what is known and seen cannot come to exist without any cause, or that there must be a Creator for the things that are created
