Abstract
Allegory is a rhetorical method that a poet or writer uses to achieve a coherent structure in order to present his ideas and concepts and presents moral, mystical, philosophical, etc. concepts to the audience in an indirect way. The present study has explained some selected mystical terms in a library way through the analysis of allegorical stories in Haftaurang Jami's masnavis. The hypothesis of the research is an emphasis on the fact that in order to convey his mystical thoughts to the mind of the reader, Jami used allegorical stories and expressed his mystical approach and worldview through the definition and explanation of mystical terms. The findings of the article showed that some of the most important mystical terms based on allegorical stories in Haft Aurang Jami are: Abdal, Adab, Asthghna, Ikhlas, Tajli, Tawheed, Unity of Being, Hijab and Love. The result of the research indicates that most of Jami's mystical 
thoughts in Haftaurang originate from the worldview of mystics before him, and Jami has acted creatively in the way of expressing these thoughts through allegorical stories and in simple language
