Perhaps the structure of the question "What is the meaning of life?" It seems meaningless. But reflecting on the meaning of the word "meaning" helps to determine the meaning or meaninglessness of this question. Philosophers of the meaning of life believe that if the three meanings of "goal, value and function" are replaced by the word meaning, we are faced with a meaningful question. As a result, when the meaning of life is discussed, the concept of meaning should be understood first, then its connection with the three categories of purpose, value and function should be determined. The word meaning is used in the works of Attar Nishaburi in the meaning of truth, interior, theme, case/story and reason. Among these, truth can be replaced by the word meaning, so that the meaning of life, according to him, is to find the truth of life. According to him, finding the truth is necessary. Accordingly, meaning is a matter of discovery; That is, it is something to find, not to build; A category that should be sought beyond nature. Since the truth is a distant thing and is hidden in the depth of being, Attar has made this category comprehensible in the form of images, each of which shows the nature, value and function of the truth. It should be mentioned that with this approach, no research was found regarding Attar's works. The research method is library and based on content analysis
