Abstract
Attar’s Mantiq Ut-Tair is a magnificent masterpiece in mystical literature that through presenting the most essential ontological issues invites humans to contemplate them. This interdisciplinary study seeks to analyze the journey in parallel universes in Mantiq Ut-Tair based on the principles of quantum physics to achieve a rational plan for responding to the paradoxes of this literary work; since in quantum mechanics actualizing all probabilities and paradoxes is feasible. According to the findings, Attar is in search of an exact twin of his own (Simorgh) in another world by creating such a story. In view of the contradiction in time travel, the starting part of the journey is based on the hypothesis of "compatible dates" and the final part of the journey is based on "periodic dates". The mirror symbolizes the "Wormholes" (launching platform to the parallel world) and "Mount Ghaf", like the "event horizon", is a passageway to enter other life dimensions along the borderline between this world and the parallel world. In addition, there is a structural palindrome among them and Nur Alnur can also be a factor for launching forwards into a parallel universe. Attar intends to reach the truth of universe by attaining integrity and completeness. Einstein also intends to read God's mind through integrity theory. However, both Attar and physicists believe that one cannot enter parallel worlds by the existing knowledge.
