Abstract
One of the important and basic topics of "monotheism and God knowledge" is the topic of God's attributes. The existence of many verses related to divine attributes and the quality of their design by the Holy Quran is a topic that has occupied the minds of theologians and commentators of this divine book for a long time. The discussion of divine attributes is also of special importance in discussions related to Persian literature, especially in the field of mystical literature. Persian mystical texts are influenced by religious concepts and themes centered on theology and monotheism, and it is appropriate that this issue be investigated and investigated comprehensively in these works. In this research, an attempt has been made to examine the reflection of divine attributes in Sufi prose texts in the fourth century and with a case study, the book "Al-Lama fi al-Susuf" written by Abu Nasr Siraj. The results show that the author of this work, influenced by Quranic verses, has been able to create a fundamental change in the process of Persian prose works and mystical themes; So that divine attributes are directly manifested in his work.
