Notes
The author's work on religious mystical issues. The work was first introduced by Sa'îd-i Nefîsî under the name Mesnevî-i Hüccetü'l-Ebrâr. Probably because the name of its author is not known, it was recorded as Seyyid Mürşid Dervîş-i Yesevî. Sa'îd-i Nefîsî says that this work was written in Istanbul in 996/1589, about the sheikhs of the Yesevî sect, and that it was written by the Ottoman sultan III. He stated that it was written on behalf of Murad (Sa'îd-i Nefîsî: I, 407). The work was written in nestalik script and consists of a total of 2020 couplets. According to the catalog information, the text, whose number of lines varies between 11 and 15, is bound in Ottoman binding and dated to the 11th/17th. It was copied at the end of the century and has dimensions of 80x145 and 140x210 mm. Hazînî talks about the names of Allah in verse and the beauty of mentioning these names (vr.103b), the importance of basmala, the fact that the end of a work started without basmala is cut off, the need to always remember the names of Allah (vr.104a-b-105a), the importance of science. Because of its importance, Hz. From the hadith of the Prophet, "Take knowledge even if it is in China", that it is possible to reach Allah with both open and secret dhikr (vr.105b, 107b.108a...), that one should not deny the dhikr of jahri, that the devotee should be like Hazrat Abu Bakr next to the Prophet in his suluk (vr.106a), the importance of the dhikr of erra, the cure for diseases. He talks about dhikr, the need to know the saints as real doctors (vr. 106b-107a), the evils of the evil soul (vr.109b) (Kunt 2002). In the continuation of the work, Na't-ı Nebî (vr.110b), thanking God for the sect he belongs to (112b), praying for the Ottoman Sons and sultan Murad III. In the work where praises (113a-116b) are included, information is given about the reason for the copyright of the work. Starting from 125b, the author gives some advice under the title "Der beyân-ı mukaddime": Accordingly, reunion is not possible without a guide and the sheikh of the one who does not have a sheikh is better than your reward. However, he says that poverty and good manners are required for spiritual maturity (133a). Later in the work, there is information about Yesevi's family, hometown and legends. Almost all of the information here is parallel to the information in Cevâhiru'l-Ebrâr and Menba'u'l Ebâr. When it comes to the Yesevi lineage, the author re-expresses his loyalty to Molla Emin. (143b) Starting from 147a, a long section is devoted to Seyyid Mansur's ascetic life and legends in the lodge. According to this much more detailed information in Cevâhiru'l-Ebrâr, Seyyid was the Master of the Universe for 66 years and left twelve caliphs, the last of whom was himself, Hazînî said that he served at the door of Seyyid Mansur for twelve years. and he states that he is now fifty-six years old. Since the copyright date of the present work is 996/1589, it is understood that the author was also born in 940/1534 (149b). Hazînî, who later went on to provide information about the sheikh Seyyid Mansur, tells the story of Seyyid Mansur's coming from Belh to Diyarbakır for the purpose of pilgrimage and his death there, which is also told in the other two works with some minor differences. (150b). Hazînî, who had been in Istanbul for a long time when he wrote the book, expresses his desire to return to his country and spread Yeseviism, but he hopes that this treatise he wrote to go on this journey will fall into the hands of Sultan Murad III and lead to his help (154b). The last few pages of the work consist of various prayers and wishes. It contains some of Hazînî's information and hopes about his own work. Accordingly, the work was written in 30 days (170b). Hazînî is worried that the value of his work will not be appreciated in Istanbul and he wishes for his work to reach Persian-speaking places such as Samarkand, Bukhara, Hocend and Hisar. He says that it was a blessing for their community. The only known copy of the work is located between vr. 102a and 173b, which is the third part of the magazine containing three works, registered in the Persian Manuscripts Department of the Paris National Library, number 263 (Paris Bibliotheque Nationale, Pers. A.F. 263). For the biography of the author, see. "Hazînî".Turkish Literature Names Dictionary.
