THE IMAGE OF RIND AND THE INTERPRETATION OF HERMITISM IN THE GHAZALS OF ALISHER NAVOY

Abstract

The article examines some aspects of Alisher Navoi's ghazals, glorifying wine. When analyzing these ghazals, the author focuses on the image of rind and opposes it to the image of zokhid — a hermit. In highlighting the basic concepts of the ghazals with the rind and hermit (zokhid) images, attention is paid to the artistic and philosophical interpretation of the basic concepts, such as riya, tawba, takwa, sidk, ikhlas (hypocrisy, repentance, piety, devotion). The author relies on scientific and theoretical sources and the opinions of Eastern thinkers. It is noteworthy that the author studied the issue of denying rind by Sharia, which ensures the priority of the hermit, with the help of which he tried to reveal the essence of rind and the movement associated with it. Unlike a spiritually immobile hermit (zokhid), rind strives for spiritual growth and the author analyzes this process based on such concepts as riya, tawba, taqwa, sidk, ikhlas in Navoi ghazals. Exploring the opposite sides of rind and zokhid, the author reveals the spiritual world of the protagonist of these ghazals - rind, who aspires to the Almighty, to eternity.
