Abstract

 This article explores the artistic and philosophical role of imagery and symbolism in classical literature. Through examples from literary texts, it analyzes the function of imagery as a means of aesthetic expression and the representation of deep spiritual and moral meanings through symbols. Special attention is given to the works of classical poets such as Alisher Navoi, Bedil, and Sufi Olloyor, highlighting the harmony between imagery and symbolism and their artistic weight within the ghazal genre. The article also examines how divine truth is artistically expressed through symbolic language in the context of Sufi thought.
