Besides beautiful description of affective emotions and love, Vis and Rāmin love story by Fakhruddin As'ad Gurgani includes religious beliefs of pre and post Islamic era. Through the challenge of ardent love of two main protagonists of the story, we encounter some crucial points on importance and necessity of oath and abstinence from its denial. This issue led the writer to analyze this theory of ancient Iran and even the main pillar of Islamic judgments (the oath of the parties and witnesses that their speeches were correct), besides how and why it was used in this poem as a fundamental element, as well as the importance of paying attention and engagement to it. Probably, the key element in the genesis of this love story is the oath of Shahru , the mother of Vis vis –à-vis Monikan priest

Keywords: Oath in Persian Literature, Fidelity to oath in Literary texts, Vis and Rāmin, Persian classic Poem Analysis
