Hafez
Baba yake aliitwa Baha-ud-Din alikuwa mwuzaji wa makaa akafa Hafez alipokuwa mdogo. Mvulana alivutwa sana na kumbukumbu jinsi baba alisoma Qurani akajitahidi akaweza kushika Qurani yote alipokuwa na umri wa miaka 8.
Lakini alisikia pia mashairi ya Maulana Rumi na Sa'di. Inaaminiwa ya kwamba alipata mafundisho katika madrasa.
