The ghazals of Hafez-e Shirazi are famous for their exceptionally beautiful imagery. Within the scope of this study, the discussed image of “master magi” is derived not from Islam, but from Zoroastrianism, the religion that dominated Iran before Islam. Although Hafez was not the only poet to use this image, his deep respect for it led some religious followers to accuse him of apostasy and disbelief. This study is dedicated to revealing the main characteristics of the master magi image in Hafez's couplets.
