Mokalemate Moqim va Mosafer (transl. Conversation of the Resident and the Traveler, Persian: رساله مقیم و مسافر) is a political treatise by Noorollah Najafi Isfahani. The treatise was published in Isfahan in July 1909.[1][2] This treatise was written in the years between the first and the second Persian Constitutional Revolution. In this treatise, the author presents an Islamic version of the constitutional political system.[3][4] The treatise Moqim va Mosafer, which was written in constitutional history, took a prominent place in its political treatises and explored the concept of constitutional jurisprudence with the idea of a "powerful government". The treatise Moqim va Mosafer proved by the powerful principle that injustice of the constitutional state are less than monarchy and almost controllable; yet it believes that if the constitution leads to mass despotism, there will be a great deal of tyranny that cannot be easily reformed.[5]

On the first page of the book, in the four corners of the page, are the words justice, dignity, equality and freedom.
