One of the most Popular love  ancient story in the middle east and Islam world is the story of "Shirin and Farhad" …

This is story has know  in the Islam's world because lots of the theoretician and spiritual of Islam's  world who live  in Iran was poet and has lots of poems for describing the love between them … or they were Muslim Scientists who  were poets too ….
