Ḳānūnī Sulṭān Süleymān “Muḥibbī” (r. 1520–1566) was one of the most important poets in the 16th century in period that could be rightly termed the golden age of Ottoman poetry with authors like Ḫayālī, Ẕātī and Bāḳī. Most Ottoman poets in this period composed poetry in Turkish, only a few of them felt the necessity to write poems in Persian. Though the majority of the poems of Sulṭān Süleymān are in Turkish he also composed poetry in Persian. His small Persian divan was first published in 1995 by Coşkun Ak who based his edition on two manuscripts. One of them is preserved in the Topkapı Palace Library, the other in the library of Istanbul University. The present paper besides introducing a hitherto unnoticed manuscript from Israel copied during Süleymān’s life that contains the Persian divan as well also aims at giving a detailed analysis of Muḥibbī’s Persian imitation poems.
