Later Life
As time passed the impact of the trauma waned. Whatever Shams had essentially represented to him Jal¥l al-DÏn now found within himself and in close companions like ßal¥^ al-DÏn Zark‰b, a simple, pure-hearted goldsmith from the bazaar of Konya; and ¤us¥m al-DÏn ChalabÏ, a saintly individual who was a faithful and capable helper to his teacher and the chief inspiration of the latter’s masterpiece, the MathnawÏ. His equilibrium thus regained, R‰mÏ lived on for over twenty years, supervising the training of disciples and teaching through discourses, letters, and poetry. His death in 672/1273 was mourned not only by Muslims but also by Konya’s large Christian population. The direction of the brotherhood passed into the hands of ¤us¥m al-DÏn, and then to Jal¥l al-DÏn’s son Sul~¥n Walad. Founder of what would become the MawlawÏ, or Mevlevi, Sufi Order (>arÏqa), Walad was also an able administrator and an author; his works include discourses, a DÏw¥n, and some long poems including a valuable account of his father’s life.
