Answer 1

quote from the first website I found for you: "Islamic scholars consistently have interpreted the relationship between Rumi and Shams as an example of the Sufi call to open one's heart to another human, in order to open one's heart to God. At the same time, Rumi's frequent use of ardent, earthy imagery to describe his affinity with his beloved Shams also is in keeping with the conventions of Persian love poetry, which sometimes used sexual imagery to depict platonic love between men."

I also found a few descriptions of his life. It was apparently not an easy life, not due to religious persecution or anything like that, but because of invading Huns or something.
