Файл:Sheikh Muhammad Ahli Shirazi (d. 1535); diwan, signed Mohammad Mir Miram ibn Mahmud 'Imad, Safavid Iran, dated 1581-82.jpg

Frontispiece of an early copy of Ahli Shirazi's divan. Created in Safavid Iran and dated 1581-82, this copy was written within 50 years of Ahli Shirazi's death. The particularly fine illumination of this frontispiece suggests that this copy was created for a princely patron

Ahli Shirazi (Persian: اهلی شیرازی ), full name Muhammad ibn Yusuf Ahli Shirazi, was a Persian poet who lived in Shiraz, Iran from 858 to 942H (circa 1454-1535). He is buried in Hafezieh.

It is said that his life style was retiring, he faced poverty, and his life was filled with struggle.

Ahli Shirazi excelled especially in elaborately ingenious word plays (Шаблон:Transl) and other rhetorical devices. His works include ghazals, qasidas, robais (quatrains), and other types. One ornamental ode imitates a famous rhetorical piece by Salman Savaji and was judged more successful than Salman's original; but Lotf Ali Beg commented that such rhetorical devices are not the stuff of which true poetry is made. Of Ahli's masnavis an allegory on love entitled Шаблон:Transl (completed in 1489) is interesting for its treatment not only of the standard suffering of the lover (moth), but also of the affection that the beloved (candle) develops for the suffering lover, only for the two to be parted by "cruel fate" through the agency of the wind.
