Shams the Sun - ROBERT SEPEHR

in history •  7 years ago 

Shams means "Sun", and tradition holds that he taught the famous philosopher/poet Rumi in seclusion for a period of forty days. Isfahan is a city in central Iran. According to Encyclopedia Britannica: "The Jews trace their heritage in Iran to the Babylonian Exile of the 6th century BC and, like the Armenians, have retained their ethnic, linguistic, and religious identity." The people inhabiting what is now Lebanon, were referred to as Phoenicians by the Greeks. The Phoenician language was very close to ancient Hebrew. Carthage, in what is now called Tunisia, was one of 300 Phoenician colonies in the Mediterranean, including Morocco, Algeria, and Iberia. Isfahan is historically also rendered in English as Ispahan, Hispahan. Iranian Jews are historically associated with the Persian Empire. So, who where the Moors?
