Notes
Nevvâb's work. Kitâb-ı Ziyâ'ü'l-Envâr der Zikr-i Tâife-i Bâbiyye ve Ahbâbiyye started to be written in 1316/1898-99. In the copyright section (2a) at the beginning of the work, the Babis movement that started in Iran is criticized and it is stated that their aim is to harm Islam. The author planned to write his own work as a refutation against the Babiyya belief. The work consists of an introduction, nine articles and a epilogue. In the introduction (3b), the general framework of the subject and the sources used during the writing of this work are mentioned. Among these, the book titled Îkâna, brought from Tbilisi by Baki, an intellectual from Karabakh, and the work titled Risale-i Seyyah, presented to the author by another person, have an important place. Because the theses in both works, which reflect the views of the Babis, were subjected to serious criticism by Nevvâb in Ziyâ'ü'l-Envâr. The first article of the work is dedicated to the explanation of the origin and lineage of Mirza Ali Muhammed Bâb, the founder of the Bâbism, his circumstances, his conduct and his beliefs (Nəvvab, M-75: 7b). The second article talks about the murder of Mirza Ali Muhammed Bâb of Shiraz in Tabriz in 1266, upon the decree of the statesmen and the fatwa of the clergy (Nəvvab, M-75: 15b). In the third article, the turmoil caused by the disciples of Mirza Ali Muhammed Bâb in different cities of Iran and their suppression were mentioned (Nəvvab, M-75: 17a). The fourth article talks about the circumstances of Molla Hüseyin Büşrûye, one of the Bâb's successors, the discord and corruption he caused in Iran, and his murder (18b). The fifth article is about the activities and murder of Mullah Muhammad Ali Zanjani (20a). The sixth article talks about the lineage and life of Mirza Hussein Ali Baha, one of the Bâb's successors and the founder of the Bahá'î movement, and his activities that harmed Islam in 1269 (21b). In the seventh article, the Babis' activities in this direction are criticized on the basis that no one can change the verses of the Holy Quran (29a). In the eighth article, the experiences of Hüseyin Ali Baha and his son Abbas are discussed (35a). In the ninth article, the Mahdi belief in Shiism is in question (47b). In the Hatime (Nəvvab, M-75: 49b), a general evaluation was made about Babism and advice was given to the readers. Three manuscript copies of Ziyâ'ü'l-Envâr's authorship (M-75; Б-7052; Б-2929) are kept in the Manuscripts Institute of the Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences. The work has not been researched or published yet. For the author's biography, see. "Nevvab, Mir Möhsün". Dictionary of Turkish Literature Names.
