description This article seeks to explain the political views of two famous mystics holding different mystical views than those of Khanghah-Sufis, Jami (9th century AH) and Najm al- Din Razi (7th century AH), through the study of their anecdotes, Haft Aurang and Mursad al-Ebad. Although entering the realm of politics and affiliation with the court has long been a point of contention for intellectuals and mystics, mystics like Abd al-Rahman Jami and Najm al- Din Najmuddin Razi have provided advice for improving the state of the society. The political aspirations of these two mystics can be examined from four perspectives: how the king was elected, the religiosity and policies of the king, how the oppressed of the society were organized, and criticism levelled at the government's policy for earning money. This descriptive study, by citing representative examples from Hafte Aurang stories and quoting the teachings of Najm al- Din Najmuddin Razi, seeks to examine the political ideals of these two mystics, who lived in two different social conditions, so that the differences between the roles played by them and the reasons for their involvement in the political activities could be determined. The results of this study show that due to different social conditions in these two eras, there are fundamental differences in the political thoughts of these two mystics of the 7th and 9th centuries AH.
