Abstract
The research about some of the common quatrains in Divan-e Kabir indicates that the involvement of such quatrains can be proven based on existing sources, but it is not possible to identify their real and original poets based on the same documents. Common quatrains with unknown poets are quatrains that are mentioned in the early or contemporary prose texts of Rumi, or in poetry collections and safinas without mentioning the poet's name. Out of a total of 96 quatrains of this type, 70 quatrains have been analyzed in this research, of which 42 quatrains are the quatrains that Rumi has quoted from numerous and ancient literary sources that she was familiar with. 12 quatrains are quatrains that Rumi took one verse from the quatrains of earlier poets, and made the other verse hersel. The remaining 16 quatrains also share the same verse with the single verses found in prose texts. However, due to the lack of clarity and lack of access to the other verses of these single verses, we cannot say for sure that Rumi quoted these quatrains completely from other sources, or only one verse of them from others, He quoted and wrote the other verse himself.
