Mawlānā Jalāl ad-Dīn Muhammad RūmīTransliteration of the Arabic alphabet into English varies. One common transliteration is Mowlana Jalaluddin Rumi. The usual brief reference to him is simply Rumi. (, Turkish: Mevlânâ Celâleddin Mehmed Rumi) (1207 — 1273 CE), also known as Muhammad Balkhī (), but known to the world simply as Rumi, was a 13th century Muslim Persian poet, jurist, theologian and teacher of Sufism.
Rumi was born in Balkh (then a city of Khorasan, now part of Afghanistan) and died in Konya (in present-day Turkey). His birthplace and native tongue indicate a Persian heritage. He also wrote his poetry in Persian and his works are widely read in Iran and Afghanistan where the language is spoken. He lived most of his life and produced his works under the Seljuk Empire.
Rumi's importance transcends national and ethnic borders. He has had a significant influence on both Persian and Turkish literature throughout the centuries. His poems have been translated into many of the world's languages and have appeared in various formats. He was also the founder of the Mevlevi order, better known as the "Whirling Dervishes", who believe in performing their worship in the form of dance and music ceremony called the sema.
