In what ways do the writings of Hafez meet or defy your expectations of Islamic thought? What elements strike you as consistent or inconsistent with your own understanding of Islam? Use specific quoted passages from the Rubaiyat of Hafez and from the article that contains passages from the Quran to illustrate your answers. Remember that your response should be a minimum of 200 (meaningful and intellectually stimulating discursive) words.
