Abd-Allah Hatefi, commonly known as Hatefi (also spelled Hatifi; ; 1454 – 1521) was a Persian poet and nephew of the distinguished poet Jami (died 1492).

==Life== Hatefi was born in 1454 in Khar Gerd, a village that formed a district of the town Torbat-e Jam, which was in turn a dependency of the Khwarezmian city of Herat. Hatefi's mother was a sister of the distinguished poet Jami (died 1492). Unlike his Sunni uncle, Hatefi was a Twelver Shi'a. Jami spent most of his whole life in his hometown, where he served as the custodian of the mausoleum of the Timurid-era poet Qasim-i Anvar. Hatefi became part of the literary elite after prevailing in a test set up by Jami. In the late 15th century, Hatefi travelled alongside fellow poet Amir Homayun Esfaraini to Iranian Azerbaijan and Lower Mesopotamia. Between 1485 and 1490, Hatefi stayed at the court of the Aq Qoyunlu ruler Ya'qub Beg () in Tabriz in northwestern Iran.
