It is in Meydani's Majma Al Amsal that 1000 Arabic proverbs of Al Movaledun have been defined:"Amsal hasn't Arabic identity, they have been borrowed from other cultures to Arabic language".  Meydani has no idea about the identity of Amsal , but whereas commentators believed that Iranian culture has been excessively influenced by revolving Arabic literature, it is lost to approve Iranian origin of Amsal to show Iranian cultural face before Islam through different events. Since there are multiple studies have been conducted to show Iranian identity of Amsal by examining concepts, and vocabularies of Iranian works. This study has tried to compare the concepts of Amsal Movaled and Iranian Tales of Amsal, in order to show the veins of Iranian identity in Amsal, because, Iranian culture and literature show the tales which conclude to those of Movaled proverbs, therefore, there is no doubt on their origins. While Meydani believes that all of the tales of Amsal were quoted, there is no tale to support the documentation of the study, it shows that the tales were not famous in Arabic literature in Meydani career. Such tales of Persian literature and culture are examples of Arabic Amsal in Iranian culture.
