What is the role of mysticism in classical Persian poetry?
Mysticism, particularly Sufism, is a central theme in classical Persian poetry. Many poets, including Rumi and Hafez, used mystical motifs to explore the relationship between the human soul and the divine. Through allegorical language and metaphor, these works express profound spiritual journeys, the quest for enlightenment, and the unity with God. This mystical aspect has made the poetry appealing to spiritual seekers worldwide.
