Özet:

Abstract The eminent religious scholar Ibrahim Al-Gulshani, a well-known Turkish mystic, lived at the end of the 15th and beginning the 16th century. He was a seventh-generation descendant of Oghuz Ata and his arrival was noted by Mawlana Djalaladdin al-Rumi in a poetic couplet. As for Gulshani, he wrote his Mas'nawi in forty thousand couplets, imitating Mawlana. Many mystics descended from Gulshani, spread the religious order of the Gulshanites in İstanbul, Egypt, Edirne and Diyarbakır and contributed to the teaching of Islam in these communities. Ibrahim al-Gulshani also established relationships with the sultans. Süleyman the Great invıted him to İstanbul to treat his eyes and entered into his path. Yawuz Sultan Selim also joined his path with all his military staff of Janisseries. The Gulshani religious order retained its influence in Diyarbakır until 1950, for Gulshane had founded four takkash and many khalifs and students were trained by him there. İn this paper, I will outlined the historical development of the Gulshani religious order in Diyarbakır, describing the period in which Gulshani lived, his activities, the scholars he trained, and the services he performed, as well as shedding light on the path and the takkahs established by him. This study will help us to understand the high level of mystical life in Diyarbakır during the Ottoman period. Key words: Tarikhat, Halvetiyye, Celvetiyye, Gulshani, Mystisizm, Takkah.
