Notes The writings on the Seljuk, Principalities and contemporary Turkish-Islamic volumes are included in seals or sheets. Two types of seal-shaped ones have been identified. The first is the bookbinder's seals, and the second is the prayer seals. The subject of this article is the "hasbiyallah" sealed volumes, which are among the prayer seals. Hasbiyallah is an Arabic phrase meaning "Allah is sufficient for me". The phrase is found in religious and literary literature. As a result of the field and literature research, 15 volumes with the "hasbiyallah" seal were identified and the volumes were examined in detail in terms of their techniques and decorations. The common feature of the seals on the volumes is that they are all circular and their diameters are in the 4-7 mm range. It has been determined that seals are mostly applied to the inside of triangular brackets. Şemse and salbeks are also among the skin cover parts where seals are applied. The seals were found in bindings produced in the extensive period from the 13th to the 15th centuries. However, the period in which the seal was most commonly seen was the 14th century. Although the use and form of the "Hasbiyallah" seal on the bindings is similar to the bookbinding seals, it has been concluded that this seal was applied to the bindings for the purpose of trust. Inscriptions are included in a seal or sheet on the Seljuk, Principalities, and contemporary Turkish-Islamic bindings. Two types of seal have been identified. The first one is the bookbinder seals and the second one is the prayer seals. The subject of this paper is the “hasbiyallah” sealed bindings, which are one of the prayer seals.

It has been determined that the seals are mostly applied inside the triangular corner-pieces. Medallions and pendants are also part of the binding cover where the seals are applied. Seals have been found on bindings produced in the broad period from the 13th to the 15th centuries. However, the most intense period of the seal is the 14th century.
