Reflection of Hafez's Odes in Malhamat-Al-Harafish Novel by Najuib Mahfouz

Fiction of Malhamat-Al-Harafish(The Harafish) written by Najuib Mahfouz includes 13 couplets of odes of Hafez Shirazi in Farsi language and it is stupendous that some couplets of Hafez’s odes are included in one of the most prominent fictions of this known Egyptian writer and winner of Noble Prize in 1988. Seven movies have been producedbased on this story so far. These couplets, which are heard from Takyeh recluses in Farsi language and whispered by them in their mystical song, are regarded as a violation in Arabic fiction and indicate familiarity of the greatest Arabic novelist with Hafez poems. Yet, the main question is that what the relationship between these couplets and fiction space is. Principe of these couplets in Hafez’s poetical work with its application in fiction has been studiedusing the library anddescriptive-analytic method. It can be observed that these couplets have been applied based on mystical space of the fiction and the fiction has reached to its peak elegantly by using them.
