Özet:

Turkish Sufi literature has brought up important personalities from Ahmet Yesevi, who is considered to be its founder, to the present day. These personalities used various literary genres as tools for the purposes of carrying mystical subjects to the future and teaching. Shathiye, as a type of poetry, are works that express deep mystical subjects in an incomprehensible way, sometimes exceeding the creative-creative boundaries, and carrying both apparent and semantic depth. It is also stated that it is the manifestation of a divine state of ecstasy. For this reason, in order to understand them, the annotations of Sufis who have a good command of Sufi issues and who have zahiri and ledun knowledge were needed. In this study, the work of Âşık Veysel, who is considered one of the most important representatives of Alevi-Bektashi literature and Âşık literature in the 20th century, is discussed. Consisting of nine quatrains, this shathiah is a successful example of the shathiya tradition in Sufi literature in terms of both art and content. This work, which can be called Şathiyyat-ı sûfîyâne, includes the evaluation and interpretation of deep mystical issues from the perspective of Âşık Veysel. Âşık Veysel has a point of view that professes mystical concepts in general, even though he has sometimes been ostentatious and crossed the boundaries in his discourses as a servant. In the poem, important issues such as unity and oneness, manifestation of light, various qualities of Allah, the realm of secrets, creation and the beginning of worldly life, unity of body, test and destiny are mentioned. Âşık Veysel, who proved that he is well-versed in these mystical terms, completes his verse by saying that the mind will have difficulty in understanding mystical issues, therefore it should be spoken less and that the real owner of the secret is Allah. Such poems require the reader to think and learn some religious-mystical concepts.
