Abstract
The approaches of Sukri and Sahwi have had a profound effect on the formation of some concepts and terms and their semantic expansion in Sufism. Each of these groups have included components in the definitions according to their intellectual atmosphere. In this article, which is written in a descriptive-analytical method, after extracting the definitions of love and affection from mystical texts up to the 7th century, the important components mentioned have been identified and then according to the ideas of Sahvi or Sukri extracted from them, typology has been done. Based on this, two general types can be observed in Sofia's definitions of love and affection. First, the definitions expressed in poetic and Sufi language, using rhetoric, have references to romantic situations and the effect of love on the seeker, which often belong to the people of Sukr. The second general type is the phrases that the Sufis express their theoretical point of view in this matter by using mystical components and terms, which are divided into three subtypes. In the first subspecies, which is reserved for people of Saho, the extracted components are related to mujahidat and acquisition. In the second subspecies, which belongs to the people of Sekar, components such as extinction, destruction, and existence are observed. But the third type contains components whose words are common in the definition belonging to the people of Saqr and Sahoo, but their meanings are different in a way that is in harmony with the intellectual atmosphere of the two schools.
