Gently place eggs in a medium pot. Fill pot with cold water and bring to a rapid boil. Remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 9 minutes, then transfer eggs to an ice-water bath to cool.
Peel cooled eggs. Cut each in half lengthwise. Separate yolks from whites. In a medium bowl, mash together yolks, preserved lemon, harissa, chopped capers, oil, mayonnaise, and salt. Transfer mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a star tip (or a plastic bag with one corner snipped off). Fill whites with mixture; garnish with lemon zest, parsley, saffron, and capers; and serve.
