Özet:

It is a work created with information collected from some main sources that provide important information about Vekâyi et-Turkmân, Dulkadir Beyliği and other Turkmen. It also provides important information about the Ottoman and Timur, including the Memlûk. Vekâyi' et-Turkmân contains the 58-year events related to the Turkmen people from the year h.850 (m.1446/1447) by collecting the dates of Ibn Hacer and al-Aynî and the works of other historians. Therefore, the work is an important source of collective information about the Turkmen. But, despite this importance, Vekâyi-et-Turkmân is both unknown and not sufficiently established. One of the most important reasons for this situation is that the work is in Arabic and that there are few historians using Arabic sources. Another reason is that the handwriting of the work has not yet been examined and has not been translated into Turkish. The work, on the one hand, is an important source about the Turkmen in Southeast Anadolu and northern Syria, and on the other hand, is an important source about the forces that dominate the Middle East geography of the time. In this context, a better understanding of the political and cultural life of the period requires the importance of Vekâyi et-Turkmân. In this study, the collection work named Vekâyi et-Turkmân, which is in an important source benefit about Dulkadir Beyliği and other Turkmenists, will be discussed and evaluated. It will also be given information about the work of the authority of Ibn Bahadır and will be focused on the subject of the Vekâyi et-Turkmân and the importance of it.
