Tel: 0098-61-33348420 [email protected] Abstract Although Hindi poets (early 10th century to mid-12th century) composed innovative poetry; they were strongly affected by the language and rhetoric of the precedent poets, and appealed to their great works including sonnets and odes. This study investigates reflection of the Hafez's thoughts in Hindi style, it is based on the components of Hindi style, and common viewpoints that show a variety of the poets imitate the Hafez's Hindi style. The components of all styles show the poetic features of the poets, apart from the individual elements of these poems. This study aims to investigate the verbal communions, idioms, and satire in Hafez's poetry including keywords of Hafez's Divān, irony, allusions and Hafez's attitude towards the pious in his era that are observed in the poems and the views of many poets with Hindi style including Babafghani Shirazi, Ghani Keshmiri, Ahli Shirazi, Bidel and Saeb Tabrizi. Keywords: Hafez, Hindi Style, Components, Poetic Words, Verbal Communions. http://www.ijhcs.com/index.php/ijhcs/index Page 685 Special Issue INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND January 2016 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 Introduction Any literary creation results from social consciousness and life characteristics of the people as the real examples. Therefore, most of the poets appeal to the feelings and desires of their contemporary people. Every poetic work frequently reflects the views of the social class where poet lives or reflects the influence of various classes. Therefore, literature is interwoven with the social life of the poet and the effects of the social life may be observed in his or her literary works. Literary movement in late the 9th century and early 10th century called occurrence school was initially stuck in the repetition and banality and this necessitated innovations. Subsidiary method in occurrence school called Reburning (or Vasukht). Reburning in Persian-speaking Indians' dialect meant protest. In Reburning poetry, lover protests against the beloved, does not bear her airs, and chooses another mistress in spite of sonnet conventions: “No lover spoke a harsh word to the beloved.” (Hafiz translated by Homayoun Far, 2001). “Swearing by you is not honor; swearing by your foot dust is the great, too” (Saadi) Vasukht is a kind of poetry wad originally composed by Vahshi Bafghi (Shamisa, 1995). With the advent of the Safavid dynasty, spread of the Shiism and promoting the religious Shia beliefs, Safavid rulers did not pay attention to the panegyrics. Therefore, poets did not compose the odes and lyrics. These rulers also did not pay attention to the romantic poems and the terrestrial poems. Moreover, these poems seem to be in conflict with the conventional mystical teachings. Therefore, poets regarded the minor issues, advices, describing the natural affairs and changing the old themes with new one and, restructuring the advices and old parables in new language (Shamisa, 1995). Therefore, two literary incidents occurred, first, emigrating the court poets to the Indian kings that welcomed the panegyric poems of the Iranian poets and second, not limiting the poetry to the court, thereby, spreading the poetry to include the social realities of the common people life; people who may become great poets, if the proper conditions was provided. Therefore, poetry was not exclusive anymore and the applied scope of the terminologies was developed so that the people with different job could compose the poems based on their internal status, so that some poets in the period were butchers, blacksmith and so on. Poets were now seen in teahouses and caravanserais rather than the courts. This study also proposes that if any poetic style is based on the life conditions of the poets, then Hindi style should be based on the Isfahani style or affected by the poets’ emigration from Iran to India and is called Ghorbat style that needs to be verified by the great literary theorists. This paper aims to investigate the reflection of Hafiz' thoughts in Hindi style. To this end, at first two prominent figures of Hindi style namely Babafghani Shirazi and Saeb and then Bidel Dehlavī, Taleb Amoli, Kalim Kashani and Ghani Kashmiri are taken into consideration. Babafghani by creating new technique in poetry showed the first strong reaction against Iraqi style and connected two important literary style including Iraqi style and Hindi style. Saeb is one of the outstanding figures of the Hindi style. After Hafiz, he also follows his independent and distinct style and uses the language and style of its own time. It is impossible to replace his language – that was the language of Iran, India, and Ottoman and affected the tastes http://www.ijhcs.com/index.php/ijhcs/index Page 686 Special Issue INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND January 2016 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 of the people in these countries - by another one. In other words, Saeb is the most prominent agent of the virtues of some poets including Naziri, Taleb Amoli, and Kalim. Therefore, he may be called as the leader of the Isfahani or Hindi style. This style is frequently termed as the new style of the Saeb and the poets, who used this style, have been called as the follower of the Saeb's style (Shamisa, 1995). Hindi poetic diction Any style is composed of the criteria by which some poets’ characteristics may be extracted. Moreover, other individual elements may be found in their poems. Frequent use of these elements determines the features of the poets’ style. One of the elements of poetic language is poetic diction that is mainly selected by the poets and it shows the poets’ style. Hindi style is influenced by social conditions of its own diction, for example, poetic diction of the Babafaghani's Divan shows the sadness, pain, hesitation, cries of separation, hard time, and failures resulting from love. This kind of pain is not the same as the common people experience during their life: “Faghani's pain may not be written, therefore, do not carry water in a sieve!” (1423, Babafaghani Divan) Alternatively, says: “It’s a long time that we have lost our passion and forgotten happiness” (4850, Babafaghani Hindi poets who emerged in 10th century, although used innovations in their poems, but they were strongly affected by their precedent poets notably in composing the sonnets and odes. Hindi language and style in composing sonnets are more influenced by Hafiz's expression. Although is not as eloquent and fluent as Hafiz's poetry, this style uses his diction and in some cases, including sonnets by Babafaghani Shirazi and Saeb, this is more evident, so that some scholars call Babafaghani as Small Hafiz. Keywords of Hafez Divan Verbal communions, idioms, and satires in Hafiz's language gives particular beauty to his poetry, Poets of the Hindi style have tried to follow Hafiz using this kind of idioms: Apple chin / Dimple “Look not at the apple of the chin; for in the path is a pit: O heart! where goest thou? With this haste, where?” (sonnet 2, Hafiz, Homayoun Far, 2001). “Gardener has not opened the door of your garden; Saba has not smelled you apple of chin” (sonnet 496, Saeb) “I am afraid that the bad luck gets me out thirsty of the dimple” (Sonnet No. 2387 Saeb) “My heart became crazy with your dimple; Yousef fell in the well and was captured” (Verse no.1013, Ahli Shirazi, Divan) “Last night, I drank the water of life and I wished the beauty of your dimple” (verse 1638, Babafaghani Divan) http://www.ijhcs.com/index.php/ijhcs/index Page 687 Special Issue INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND January 2016 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 King of virtue Hafiz has expresses the peak of beauty and perfection of the beloved by combining the king of virtues. “You are at the height of opulence to the resurrection, O' King of virtue or and I wish your eternity” (Sonnet 407 Hafez) “King of virtue became king of time since his shadows” is one of the great shadows” (verse12046 Ahli Shirazi) “King of virtue was spending a good time with his beggar” (3186 bits Court Babafaghani) Pir of the tavern This word is used a lot in mystical literature and has various meanings: Pir of monastery, Pir of pubs, Pir of the Magians, the aged Pir, and Pir of the tavern. Pir sometimes means the master and sometimes means profligate of the tavern and sometimes wisdom (Sajjadi, 2004). “Save me O' Pir of the tavern, make me young because I am old” (Sonnet 331 Hafez) “Although I was old in monasteries, the old tavern's breathe made me young” (Sonnet 3502, Saeb) “You do not know our profligate, the dregs of wine drinking, only Pir of the tavern knows that he is the leader” “verse 1998, Ahli Shirazi” “Sufi you have come to the tavern to the Kaaba, welcome, that is your favor” (verse 4981, Babafaghani) Cloak it is a kind of dress for the Sufis. “My heart wearied of the cloister, and of the patched garment of hypocrisy: The Magians’ cloister; where? The pure wine where? (Sonnet 2, Hafiz, translated by Homayoun Far” “Cloak of hypocrisy is swollen with vanity; it is beautiful to worship God in Diba dress” (Sonnet 29, Saeb) “Insomuch that I scratch my chest with the nail. the cloak, chest and heart are torn” (verse 948 , Ahli Shirazi) “Love wanted to disgrace this wet cloak, it touched me but was in your burning fire” (verse1651, Babafaghani) Rogue Rogue may be the most difficult word in Hafez Divan.

  • A Comparative Analysis of Educational Teaching in Shahnameh and Iliad Elhamshahverdi and Dr.Masoodsepahvandi Abstract
    Date:12/1/18 A Comparative Analysis of Educational Teaching in Shahnameh and Iliad Elhamshahverdi and dr.Masoodsepahvandi Abstract Ferdowsi's Shahnameh and Homer's Iliad are among the first literary masterpieces of Iran and Greece. These teachings include the educational teachings of Zal and Roudabeh, and Paris and Helen. This paper presents a comparative look at the immortal effect of this Iranian poet with Homer's poem-- the Greek blind poet. In this comparison, using a content analysis method, the effects of the educational teachings of these two stories are extracted and expressed, The results of this study show that the human and universal educational teachings of Shahnameh are far more than that of Homer's Iliad. Keywords: teachings, education,analysis,Shahname,Iliad. Introduction The literature of every nation is a mirror of the entirety of thought, culture and customs of that nation, which can be expressed in elegance and artistic delicacy in many different ways. Shahnameh and Iliad both represent the literature of the two peoples of Iran and Greece, which contain moral values for the happiness of the individual and society. "The most obvious points of Shahnameh are its advice and many examples and moral commands. To do this, Ferdowsi has taken every opportunity and has made every event an excuse. Even kings and warriors are used for this purpose. "Comparative literature is also an important foundation for the exodus of indigenous literature from isolation, and it will be a part of the entire literary heritage of the world, exposed to thoughts and ideas, and is also capable of helping to identify contemplation legacies in the understanding and friendship of the various nations."(Ghanimi, 44: 1994) Epic literature includes poems that have a spiritual aspect, not an individual one.

  • Classical Persian Literature Bahman Solati (Ph.D), 2015 University of California, Berkeley [email protected]
    Classical Persian Literature Bahman Solati (Ph.D), 2015 University of California, Berkeley [email protected] Introduction Studying the roots of a particular literary history enables us to better understand the allusions the literature transmits and why we appreciate them. It also allows us to foresee how the literature may progress.1 I will try to keep this attitude in the reader’s mind in offering this brief summary of medieval Persian literature, a formidable task considering the variety and wealth of the texts and documentation on the subject.2 In this study we will pay special attention to the development of the Persian literature over the last millennia, focusing in particular on the initial development and background of various literary genres in Persian. Although the concept of literary genres is rather subjective and unstable,3 reviewing them is nonetheless a useful approach for a synopsis, facilitating greater understanding, deeper argumentation, and further speculation than would a simple listing of dates, titles, and basic biographical facts of the giants of Persian literature. Also key to literary examination is diachronicity, or the outlining of literary development through successive generations and periods. Thriving Persian literature, undoubtedly shaped by historic events, lends itself to this approach: one can observe vast differences between the Persian literature of the tenth century and that of the eleventh or the twelfth, and so on.4 The fourteenth century stands as a bridge between the previous and the later periods, the Mongol and Timurid, followed by the Ṣafavids in Persia and the Mughals in India. Given the importance of local courts and their support of poets and writers, it is quite understandable that literature would be significantly influenced by schools of thought in different provinces of the Persian world.5 In this essay, I use the word literature to refer to the written word adeptly and artistically created.

Abd Ar Rahman Jami expresses this quest from virtual love toward real love in “Layla and Majnun” eloquently in literature history. Scholars and poets point to words like love, beloved, lover, request, and requestor in their speech. Jami uses these words in his poems explicitly and repeats them as allegorical stories implicitly. This article tries to investigate the meaning of love from Nur ad-Din Abd Ar Rahman Jami view point. KEYWORDS: Abd Ar Rahman Jami, love in Persian literature, Layla and Majnun. INTRODUCTION “Nur ad din Abd Ar-Rahman Nizamad din Ahmad Ben Mohammad Jami is one of the Persian poets of fifteen century. He wrote his triplet divans in 1517 in three periods of his life and he called them “Fatihat al- Shabab”, (the beginning of youth), “Wasitat al-'ikd” (the central pearl in the necklace), and “Khatimat al- hayat” (the conclusion of life). Certainly, he considered Amir Khosro Dehlavi as a great poet of fifteen century in this work and he divided his divans into three periods. Triplet divans of Jami involves sonnets, elegy and quatrain (review and sentiments of Jami works: 1999:90) .Haft Awrang (seven thrones) is his major poetical work.

These are the first words with which Dowlatshah Samarqandi begins the notice he devotes to Hafez in his Tazkerat al-sho‘ara in 1486. Then he adds: ‘His excellence (fazilat) and his perfection (kamal) are endless and the art of poetry is unworthy of his rank. He is incomparable in the science of Qur’an and he is illustrious in the sciences of the exoteric (zaher) and the esoteric (baten).’1 Although Hafez died in 1389, his poetry was widely celebrated one century later, as shown by Dowlatshah’s eulogy.

  • The Grounds of Sufis' Aversion of Sharia
    ’ The Grounds of Sufis Aversion of Sharia Hassan Yusofian1 Received: 2018/09/22 Accepted: 2020/12/05 Abstract Of alleged Islamic mystics, there are few who have been negligent of sha- ria and have sometimes established their aversion of sharia on reasons. In this descriptive-analytic research, I analyze such aversion, aiming to con- sider certain deviations among the Sufis and mystics from compliance with sharia. Their grounds for aversion of sharia include the following: (a) the truth is not in need of sharia, which is explicitly or implicitly indicated by some of these mystics; (b) the guardian of the saints is contrasted to the prophethood of prophets. Certain pseudo-mystics cite hadiths attributed to the Prophet to talk of the infallibility of the saints in the sense that eve- rything is permitted for them; (c) a sacred goal justifies the deployment of non-sharia means. Thus, they believe that certain mystics made love to handsome teenage boys not because of personal lusts, but because of see- ing the divine beauty in their faces, and (d) intoxication removes religious duties. This applies mostly to the so-called “the sane of the insane” whose reason is taken away from them by God and are thus set free from duties. Keywords Sharia, tariqa (path), truth, aversion of sharia, guardianship, pederasty, intoxication. 1.

  • Muslim Saints of South Asia
    MUSLIM SAINTS OF SOUTH ASIA This book studies the veneration practices and rituals of the Muslim saints. It outlines the principle trends of the main Sufi orders in India, the profiles and teachings of the famous and less well-known saints, and the development of pilgrimage to their tombs in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. A detailed discussion of the interaction of the Hindu mystic tradition and Sufism shows the polarity between the rigidity of the orthodox and the flexibility of the popular Islam in South Asia. Treating the cult of saints as a universal and all pervading phenomenon embracing the life of the region in all its aspects, the analysis includes politics, social and family life, interpersonal relations, gender problems and national psyche. The author uses a multidimen- sional approach to the subject: a historical, religious and literary analysis of sources is combined with an anthropological study of the rites and rituals of the veneration of the shrines and the description of the architecture of the tombs. Anna Suvorova is Head of Department of Asian Literatures at the Institute of Oriental Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow. A recognized scholar in the field of Indo-Islamic culture and liter- ature, she frequently lectures at universities all over the world. She is the author of several books in Russian and English including The Poetics of Urdu Dastaan; The Sources of the New Indian Drama; The Quest for Theatre: the twentieth century drama in India and Pakistan; Nostalgia for Lucknow and Masnawi: a study of Urdu romance.

Mohammad Ali Shamsaldin, Leonean poet had maximally influenced by Hafez. When we read book “Fi Shirazat” complied by Mohammad Ali Shams-Al-Din, we will found this important issue that he and Hafez smashed together. His odes in this book has indeed occurred by using his natural creative force. When reader looks at the volume of book “Fi Shirazat”, he can see the name of Hafez Shirazi in the right side of the book and name of Mohammad Ali Shas-Al-Din in the left side and expression “Shirazat” at the middle of both; consequently, he would find the clear technical and spiritual cooperation between both poems. This paper aims to prove the influence of Hafez on Mohammad Ali Shams- Al-Din according to French School; for this purpose, the author has sought for required references and books in national and international libraries; by analytical methodology, the poems of Mohamamd Ali Shams-Al-Din were analyzed and compared to Persian Poems of Hafez to prove that he has influenced by Hafez’s Poets.

From the viewpoint of communication sciences, Saba Wind demonstrates the components and concepts of a communication process. Saba Wind has many communicative roles in Hafez’ poetry: an informed source; a sender giving information; it conveys the message; as a channel, it transmits concepts and messages; it is sometimes a harbinger; it receives messages; it shapes meaning in the mind of the receiver. Performing case studies of Hafez’ poems and comparing and contrasting these cases resulted in a tree diagram which shows that Saba Wind plays six major roles consisting of eight subcategories. Analyzing the communicative roles of Saba Wind, this paper is intended to investigate the quality and degree of its roles.
