Love is a prominent and identity-giving topic in Hafez's Divan, which can be looked at from different perspectives. In addition to the well-known research that has been done in this field, which has always focused on the mystical foundations of Hafez's love, some researchers have also paid attention to the human aspect of love. It must be said that this issue can also be analyzed from psychological perspectives.In his Ghazal, Hafez spoke about pain and healing from the perspective of love many times and called himself the "doctor of love." It can be said that Hafez, as someone who has contemplated mankind, life, and existence, has seen and defined love as an elixir that has a transformative effect on human nature and psyche.In this research, the author discusses the positive psychological functions of love according to Hafez's point of view. In conducting the work, data has been collected from Hafez's Ghazels using the qualitative content analysis method and analyzed by drawing upon various sources.In the qualitative analysis of Hafez's Ghazals from the perspective of the constructive and positive functions of love on human beings, outstanding and thought-provoking results such as happiness, human perfection, immortality, life-giving, awareness, and consciousness were observed. In this approach, Hafez can address and resolve not only the macro and philosophical issues and troubles of man but also personal problems.
