Rumi was probably born on 30 September 1207 in the province of
Balkh in the district of Wakhsh in Khorasan (now in modern
Afghanistan/Tajikistan). He died on 17 December 1273 in Konya in
Seljuqid Rum (now modern Turkey). He was laid to rest beside his
father, and over his remains a splendid shrine was erected. A
hagiographical account of him is described in Shams ud-Din Ahmad
Aflaki's Manaqib ul-Arifin (written between 1318 and 1353). This
hagiographical account of his biography needs to be treated with
care as it contains both legends and facts about Rumi. For example,
Professor Franklin Lewis, Chicago University, in the most complete
biography on Rumi has a separate section for the hagiographical
biography on Rumi and actual biography about him. -wikipedia
