The pre-revolutionary poetry is full of Quranic themes, despite the anti-Quran and religious evasion common in that era. After the Islamic revolution, Persian poetry turned to Quranic concepts and themes with great thirst. In fact, contemporary poets are heirs of fourteen centuries of Islamic rule in Iran and Iranian Muslims who are accustomed to reading their divine book and have adapted from this holy book in their works and writings, and many words, interpretations, proverbs and wisdom It has found its way into the language of the people. In this article, evidence of the influence of the Qur'an in terms of themes and stories, style and structure, words and compositions in contemporary Persian poetry and its two different and separate branches has been presented.
