Abstract

The fifth century, within the historical course of the formation and evolution of Sufism, is one of the golden eras of this ideology and profession, in terms of growth and development. Different epochs of this century have actually witnessed the existence and emergence of many great figures and the appearance and perfection of famous scholars. The study of the surviving authorities of the great scholars of this century reveals that there have been relations of a kind of mastery and discipleship as well as friendship and companionship and sincere familial ties among a large number of them, regardless of simultaneity of time and place. Two of the most famous Sheikhs and the most well-known scholars of this century are Abolghasem Qoshairi and Abu Sa'id Abul Khair, although some researchers have denied the relationship of these two Sheikhs with each other, and have tried to consider any relevant existing historical documents as fake. The present study seeks to clarify the relationship of these two Sheikhs based on the existing ancient documents, and through citing what confirms the authenticity of such documents. The second general purpose of this research is to demonstrate the historical route and the gradual evolution of writing technology in Persian. The third aim is to prove that lack of mentioning the names of some scholars of different ages in a number of classic books or in other sources of Sufism, cannot rule out the absence of relationship among them.
