Summary/Abstract: In Sa‘dī’s art there is something that the rest of our great writers have almost never cherished aand that is Sa‘dī’s “experientiality and empiricism” in a vast polygon called life and in different planes of social and individual life. He talks about his numerous journeys and experiences pertaining to various guilds that we have heard of and know of, but some of his experiences remain unknown to us. This paper will discuss one such hidden segment of Sa‘dī’s experiences, more precisely the tradition of spiritual nobility whose origin is related to ‘Alī, the leader of the spiritual noblemen. The analysis of Sa‘dī’s stories about spiritual noblemen and their characteristics will point out this aspect of his thought.
