Abstract

Happiness has many examples and manifestations in our literary and mystical texts, including Manazal Al-Saerin. The point of departure of this research is based on the hypothesis that the type of happiness proposed in the mystical work of Manazel Al-Saerin corresponds to the patterns of positive psychology. In this research, using qualitative content analysis, the concept of happiness in the homes of Al-Saareen and positive psychology has been investigated. The results show: the majority of Khwaja Abdullah Ansari's votes in Al-Saareen's houses are devoted to factors and manifestations of happiness. The process and factors of creating happiness such as: satisfaction and satisfaction, hope and love in the two views of Manazel al-Saerin and positive psychology, as well as the manifestations of happiness such as: joy, taste, delight and overwhelm in Manazel al-Saerin have been compared with some components of "drowning" in positive psychology. And the difference between both fields in the two schools is in the basics, scope, depth and purpose of happiness. Also, the approach of positive psychology and Manazel al-Saerin in the concept of happiness and the three components of happiness from the point of view of positive psychology, which includes positive emotion, attraction and meaning, overlap with each other in different material forms, but in the spiritual approach of happiness based on mysticism, the main axis of creating happiness. In terms of communication with God, knowing and knowing about him, contentment, hope and love for God are summed up.
