Shams-e Tabrizi, Absence or Martyrdom? (based on old sources specially Molana Maktoobat ) Abstract This paper, entitled “Shams-e Tabrizi, Absence or Martyrdom?”, discusses the fate of Shamsedin Mohammad […] Tabrizi, and whether he died a normal death or heachieved martyrdom. The disagreements have been around since the time of Molana himself, and, since then, has occupied the minds of Molana experts. Ali Dashti, Badi’ozaman Forouzanfar, Zabihollah Safa, […] have expressed their opinions about this. These theories could be subdivided into 4 categories. The method and the compilation ofinformation in this paper is library-dependent. And for construing data we will benefit from the Content Analyzing method. The results declare that despite of all the researchers who have expressed their doubts whether Shams was martyred or not, he was actually martyred and, Aladdin Mohammad, Molana's eldest son, is the main accused, and has had a big role in Shams’s death. Consequently, after Hallaj, Einolghozaat and Sohrevardi, we can count Shams the forth martyr of love.
