Abstract

The purpose of this article, which is of a qualitative type, is to examine the actions of the broker in the story of Rabia and Baktash in Athar Neyshabouri's theology, based on the mediator theory as one of the components of individual help. Data were first collected by reference to library resources and note-taking methods and analyzed by relying on content analysis and inductive methods (part to whole). The results of the research show that the broker observes such items as: "Accurate knowledge of the client's problems and mastery in communicating with him", "Accurate knowledge of the client's initial position and take the necessary measures accordingly" and "Correct assessment of the client and those around him" The role of an individual helper has played an important role in the evolution of Rabia's epistemology and has played a pivotal and undeniable role in his realization of his spiritual abilities. By rehabilitating and motivating the main characters of the story, Dallaleh has provided a suitable platform for promoting their individual and social life. Despite these similarities, in some cases, the role of the broker has been different from the mediator function. Among other things, the broker has taken a biased and mostly one-sided approach to resolving Rabia's problems. Also, unlike the mediator who is present to resolve the dispute between the parties, Dallaleh has entered the narrative process to solve Rabia's personal problems.
