Masnavi
The Masnavi or Masnavi I Ma'navi (also translated as Mathnawi or Mesnevi) is a six book collection of texts, poems, teaching stories and prayers written in Persian by Jalal al-Din Muhammad Rumi the well known Sufi saint and poet. Considered by some to be the most important work of literature in the Moslem world outside the Koran when it was first translated into English many passages were translated into Latin as the passages would have been scandalous in Victorian England due to the ribald and salacious nature of some of Rumi's writings.
