Shams Tabrizi (bahasa Persia: شمس تبریزی) atau Shams al-Din Muhammad (1185-1248) adalah seorang penyair Persia[1] yang dianggap sebagai guru spiritual Jalaluddin Rumi dan dirujuk dengan penuh penghormatan dalam karya-karya puitis Rumi, khususnya Diwan-i Shams-i Tabrīzī (Karya Syams Tabriz). Tradisi menyatakan bahwa Syams mengajar Rumi dalam pengasingan di Konya selama empat puluh hari, sebelum melarikan diri ke Damaskus. Makam Shams-i Tabrīzī baru-baru ini dinominasikan sebagai Situs Warisan Dunia UNESCO.
He may also have met the great Persian mystic Shams al-Din Tabrizi there, but it was only later that the full influence of this latter was to be exerted on him.
The Persian mystic Shams al-Din Tabrizi arrived in Konya (Asia Minor)
In a poem from Rumi, the word buri is mentioned from the mouth of Shams Tabrizi by Rumi. Rumi translates the word in standard Persian as biyā (the imperative “come”). This word is also a native word of the Tabrizi Iranian dialect which is mentioned by Persian Sufi, Hafez Karbalaie in his work Rawdat al-Jenān. In the poem of Baba Taher, the word has come down as bura (come) and in the NW Iranian Tati dialects (also called Azari but should not be confused with the Turkish language of the same name) of Azerbaijan, in Harzandi Tati it is biri and in Karingani Tati it is bura (Kiya 1976). Shams Tabrizi was an Iranian Shafi’ite like the bulk of the Iranian population of Azerbaijan during the pre-Mongol and post-Mongol era.
