Notes
A Persian prose work written by Fuzûlî, based on the debates of two types who are in constant conflict in classical Eastern literature. The work includes 75 ruba'î, 54 stanzas, 18 couplet mesnevi in which the ideas in the prose parts are expressed in verse, and there are also syllables and verses in the narrative. Rind u Zahid, written in an aesthetic prose language, has a plot that is mostly constructed in the form of Zahid opening a topic and Rind responding to it and refuting Zahid's ideas with evidence, with a tahmid and a short introduction. In the work, the conflict between the types of zahid and rind, conveyed through the mouth of the father and son, can actually be read as the ebb and flow of a person, his irreconcilable aspects at different ends, his internal conflict and transformation. In Rind ü Zahid, topics such as whether poetry is halal or not, the superiority of poetry and prose, ascetic or unadulterated life choices, dealing with agriculture, doing business, ways to be close to administrators and the drawbacks of this situation are discussed in the form of debate. Zahid does not like Rind's life based on poetry and love, and gives advice for him to lead an ascetic life like himself and to engage in a useful job. Rind highlights the negative aspects of each profession or craft he recommends. With the answers Rind gives to his father in this process, the narrative evolves from the father-son conflict to the axis of the conflict between the types of Rind and ascetic. After these irreconcilable discussions, when Rind brought up the idea of going on a journey to his father, Zahid said that he wanted to accompany his son on this journey, thinking that his son would not be able to cope with the dangers on the road. Thus, Rind and Zahid set off together. Their first stop is a mosque. Here they talk about external and internal sciences. After leaving the mosque, they come across a tavern. Zahid speaks very negatively about the tavern. Rind, on the other hand, tries to justify the tavern in Zahid's eyes by talking about the wine of divine love. Zahid waits outside for Rind as he enters the tavern. Rind discusses some matters of theology and philosophy with Pîr-i Rûşen-zamir in the tavern. However, in these discussions, Rind almost appears as an ascetic who expresses his father's views; Pîr-i Rûşen-zamir plays the role of Rind, who tries to persuade him. At the end of the discussion, Rind is convinced by what Pir-i Rûşen-zamir said and drinks the wine of divine love offered to him by Pir-i Rûşen-zamir. Meanwhile, Zahid, who was waiting outside, enters the tavern. He sees his son in a drunken state. Upset by this situation, Zahid started talking with Pir-i Rûşen-zamir about will-destiny, merciful-devil, and reward-sin. At the end of these discussions, Zahid is convinced of the wrongness of his own ideas and agrees with his son and his rational thought in the person of Pîr-i Rûşen-zamir. Rhint and ascetic are two types of classical Eastern literature that are in constant conflict. This conflict is parallel to the conflict between mind and heart, madrasa and lodge, and Sufism and theology. The types in question turned into a mystical-symbolic story in Fuzûlî's work. Both types represent different aspects of the ordinary person in the person of the narrator/narrator. While Zâhid points out the side of man that is bound to religious orders and prohibitions, Rind represents his more kind-hearted and tolerant side (Mazıoğlu 1997: 69). Rind ü Zâhid was translated into Turkish by Sâlim Efendi in 1219/1804 under the name Muhâvere-i Rind ü Zâhid, and was printed in 1285/1869 at the Tasvir-i Efkâr Press. However, this translation is made in a very artistic prose style and is more difficult to understand than the Persian original. Kemal Edip Kürkçüoğlu prepared the critical text of the work based on four copies (1956); The critical text prepared by Kürkçüoğlu was translated into Turkish by Hüseyin Ayan under the title Rind and Zâhid (1993, 2012). It was translated into Azerbaijani Turkish by K. İlhami in Baku in 1995 and included in the book titled Works of Fuzuli; Finally, it was published as a review and text by Hüseyin Muhammedzâde Sıddîk in Tehran in 1389 (Hş) under the name of Physician Molla Mehemmed Fuzûlî Rind ü Zâhid.
