This scholarly article analyzes the interconnection between the works of the great representative of Iranian literature, Abul-Qasim Ferdowsi, and Alisher Navoi, the founder of classical Uzbek literature, focusing on their shared spiritual and aesthetic sources as well as their ideological and thematic harmony. The study scientifically examines how these two eminent writers interpret concepts such as national identity, justice, patriotism, the relationship between rulers and the people, humanity, and moral purity in their works. Additionally, Navoi’s respect for Ferdowsi, the influence of the Shahnameh on Turkic literature, the harmonious elements in the portrayal of heroes, and the continuity of literary thought are highlighted based on historical and literary sources. The research also provides general conclusions, scholarly perspectives, and comparative literary analyses on the topic.
