She thoroughly analyzed Fuzuli's ghazals and other works, exploring his approach to themes of love, wisdom, and divine affection.

The students and specialists participating in the open lesson deeply analyzed Fuzuli's poetic language and philosophical thoughts, discussing how these themes were significant within the social and cultural context of his era.

The students examined the poet's language and style, addressing the complex structure of his poetry, rich artistic imagery, and profound philosophical content.
