Praising Imam Riḍā (as) has a special place in contemporary poetry, especially after the Islamic Revolution. Each of the poets, according to their own spirits, emphasizes certain aspects of the characteristics of that Imam. Some poets use the epic elements of poetry more due to their more familiarity with the literature of stability and sacred defense when praising the eighth Imam, on the other hand, some people prefer to praise that Imam with a lyrical and romantic tone and portray their inner and personal feelings with him. For the author, the question has been raised as to what specific features of Raḍavi poetry bring it closer or farther away from the literature of stability. Therefore, the purpose of writing this article was to provide objective and documented examples of the effects of sustainability literature after comparing the two Raḍavi lyric poems. For this purpose, by comparing the Raḍavi lyric poems of Qaisar Aminpour and Mohammad Ali Bahmani, we have examined two different ways of contemporary poets in praising Imam Riḍā (AS). In order to achieve this goal, we have compared the two sonnets separately in terms of thought, literature and language and have shown that Aminpour sonnet is more in line with the characteristics of sustainability literature. According to the findings of this study, Aminpour's poetry has collective tendencies at the intellectual level and Bahmani lyric is more introspective. At the linguistic level, Aminpour employs dynamic words and verbs, in contrast, the words and actions of Bahmani lyric are passive, finally, among the literary elements, the weight and imaginative forms of Aminpour's poetry are more related to the epic tone than Bahnami's sonnet.
