Abstract

Persian poetry is replete with profound reflections, persistent messages and global thoughts, and delving into it would yield a comprehensive understanding of universal culture, thoughts, and knowledge. Nizami Ganjavi is one of the elite poets, whose poetry is so full of human and widespread aspects and plays a significant role in the universality of Persian literature. His Quinary (Panj Ganj/ Five Jewels in Persian) contains valuable messages which can helpthose stuck in a crisis to be able to resolve it. The present paper investigates Nizami?s global messages for the contemporary human and delves into and analyzes such matters as life crisis, psychological and emotional crisis, peace and security crisis, and belief and spirituality crisis.Nizami has clear messages for those stuck in the aforementioned drawing upon which can cater to the needs of the contemporary human, who is dealing with these crises. the life crisis can be managed by seeking refuge in and giving the self over to God; emotional and ethical crises can be resolved by peace and joy, avoiding tension, exercising balance and beneficence, self-knowledge, contentment, happiness, and keeping good company; peace and security crises can be overcome by forgiveness, avoiding injustice and tyranny, justice and mercy and kindness towards people, and philanthropy. Nizami ultimately points out to belief and spirituality crises, claiming that humans must fall back on religion and religiosity to keep their balance in addressing the crises.
