Özet:

Khamsah the most important work of Niẓāmī Ganjavī (D.1140-41), one of the most famous masnavi poets in Iranian literature, consists of five masnavies written in Persian. These masnavis are titled:'Makhzan al-asrār', 'Khusraw u Shīrīn’, ‘Laylā u Majnūn’ and 'Haft paykar' and 'Iskandarnāmah'. Since its writing, Khamsah has been among the most popular works in the Islamic world, especially in Iran, and copies of manzum and miniature have been prepared in many languages such as Persian, Arabic and Turkish for the palace and other dignitaries. In this study, Niẓāmī's Khamsah, which is thought to have been produced in Sultan Ḥusayn Bāyqarā's palace in 1495/96 and is now stored in the British Library of London with the inventory number BL or.6810. Laylā and Majnūn masnavi which is included in the manuscript Layla and Majnun in miniatures named are “(106v) Laylā and Majnūn at school”, “(128v) Majnūn was visited by Salīm in the desert”, “(135v) Laylā mourns her husband Ibn Salīm”, “(137v) Fainting of Leyla and Mecnun”, “(144v) Majnūn's death in Laylā's tomb” figures of miniatures were analyzed. It has been revealed that the traditional composition patterns specific to the muralist are used in the designs, and proportional areas are created in the composition with the balanced intersection of the vertical and horizontal axes and the figure of Leyla and Majnun in each miniature. Chronologically, the transition from youth to old age was considered, the sadness and suffering of the figures were clearly reflected in their facial expressions, and these figures were depicted with the traditional clothes and jewelry of the geography they lived in.
