It highlights that Rumi’s work holds a significant place in the history of philosophy and pedagogical thought. His "Masnavi," dedicated to topics such as human upbringing, activity, morality, and the role of individuals in society, is one of the most widely read and utilized texts among both his successors and contemporary youth. The reader is informed that Rumi, in his work, extensively explored issues such as education, humanism, positive and negative moral qualities, characteristics, beauty, compassion, respect, and influence. He analyzed these subjects from his unique worldview, incorporating pedagogical-psychological, ethnic-philosophical, and socio-political perspectives.
