  Martin Seligman's theory of well-being focuses on positive emotion, engagement, relationship, meaning, and achievement (PERMA) to assess prosperity. The six virtues of wisdom/knowledge, courage, humanity, justice, temperance, and transcendence and twenty-four character strengths form its foundation. The aim of the current research is to study comparatively the indicators of Seligman's well-being theory in Hafez's ghazals using analytical-descriptive method. The research findings indicate that both literary and mystical works and positive psychology share common goals. These goals include finding satisfaction from the past, harboring hope for the future, and obtaining happiness in the present, all with the aim of personal growth and flourishing. Hafez's worldview, influenced by the conditions of his time, emphasizes the significance of happiness and love as essential elements in healing humanity. Consequently, his message transcends time and location, remaining relevant across different eras. Throughout Hafez's ghazals, the elements of Seligman's well-being theory manifest themselves, further emphasizing their compatibility. This interdisciplinary research provides a platform for comparing Hafez's and Seligman's perspectives on happiness. Manuscript profile
