The universal culture has turned about some binary elements.
An Obvious indication of this state is the contrast between spoken and written language, which has, in turn, influenced the human culture to the extent that Derrida considers it as the source of errors in the two-millennium tradition of Western culture. Any reform in the world communities has been attributed to the above contrast and the so- called revolution of the written language. In Islamic culture, the revelation of the Holy Quran is considered as the first revolution of the written language and Adonis has beautifully illustrated the written / spoken dialectic in the Islamic culture. In this declaration, he discusses the position and role of Rhetoric as an art of speech and explores rhetoric from various perspectives: substantial features, its functions, training and persuasion, ultimate goal and significance as well as its triadic underlying principles; commonly agreed upon by rhetoric scholar's composition, harmony and style. Also, it covers such topics as anatomy of rhetoric, its status in the Ignorance era and the Islamic age as well as its impact on Arabic poetry and rhetoric.
The paper proceeds with highlighting the major distinctive features of speech and prose and sheds lights on their functions as well as aesthetics.

The literature scholars of the subcontinent were the vanguard and the pioneers in various fields in Persian language, such as rhetoric, biography and especially lexicography. Unlike the Iranian literati, they are the initiator and founder of the theoretical basis of lexicography, rhetoric, biography and even criticism to the extent that the theoretical principle of each of these arts can be extracted from the content of the works in each subject. In this article, first we briefly review the development of Persian language in the subcontinent during different periods, and then we discuss the lexicography in the subcontinent and show how effective the subcontinent was in the formation and development of this process. Therefore, we will explore the written dictionaries in India and mark their most distinguishing features. In the end, we point out the important functions of these dictionaries.

There are so many similarities between some cultures and civilizations as to say that the principle of Communicating Vessels is common among them. Therefore, Sufism in Iran has the status of philosophy in Greece, especially the Sufism of the first period – before the sixth century – which has been interpreted as Sufism of the intuition in contrast to the Sufism of later centuries, i.e. Sufism of the rhetoric and of the deception. The ideas and concepts in the Sufism of the first period as well as the words and deeds of some famous Sufis, especially the Sufis of Khorasan, confirm this proposition. For example, manifestations of Greek rationality, crystallized in the behavior and speech of Socrates of Athens, can be found in the behavior and speech of Abu Sa'id Abu'l-Khayr of Mihana. In this paper, using the analytical-descriptive method and the comparative approach, we have determined the commonalities in the words and deeds of Socrates and Abu Sa'id Abu'l-Khayr, and have tried to prove the principle that “water stands at the same level in all communicating vessels”.
