{"title":"Texts Attributed to Qara Khalil Efendi, Jalaladdin Rumi’s Contemporary, in Manuscript Repositories","authors":"Shirinova Rubaba Bahadir","doi":"10.32955/neujsml2025141103","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.32955/neujsml2025141103","url":null,"abstract":"We have not found any information in the sources regarding the date of birth of Khalil bin Hasan bin Muhammad al-Birgali (1123/1711) al-Rumi al-Hanafi al-Ghazi, the son of Birgali Hasan bin Muhammad and known by the nickname Qara Khalil Efendi. One of the Ottoman scholars, Qara Khalil Efendi is remembered with the names Rumi, Hanafi, Birgali, Aydini and Tirali. Information about his works is provided in a number of authoritative sources. Examples of these sources include: “Ottoman scholars” by Muhammad Tahir Bursali, “Hadiyyatul arifin” by Ismail Pasha Baghdadi, “al-Alam” by Khairaddin Zirikli, “Mojam muallifin” by Omar Riza Kehali, etc. Gara Khalil Efendi wrote a footnote to the work “Jihatul-vahidah” by the 16th-century Azerbaijan scholar Muhammad Amin Sadraddin al-Shirvani Mollazadeh Aghdashi (1036/1626) and called it “Hashiya ala Muhammad Amin”. The work is about logic. We have discovered yet two old printed copies of this work at the Institute of Manuscripts named after Muhammad Fuzuli of the Academy of Sciences of Azerbaijan. These copies are protected under the codes XVI-1692; V-526. Both books were published in Istanbul in 1288/1871 at the “Amira” printing house. On the first page of the V-526 cipher printed book, the phrase “Rajab month 1292/1875, Abdulghani” is written in black ink. Therefore, this book is from the collection of Abdulghani Efendi Nukhavi Khalisagarizadeh. Shamsaddin Muhammad bin Hamza al-Fanari (751-834/1350-1430) wrote a commentary on the work “Isaghuji” by Azerbaijan scholar Asraddin Mufaddal bin Omar al-Abhari (663/1265) and called it “Sharh al-Risala al-Isaghuji”. Some sources have given the name of this commentary as “al-Fawaid al- Fanariyya”. Qara Khalil Efendi wrote a footnote to this commentary and called it “Hashiya Qara Khalil ala al-Fanari”. Two old printed copies of the work “Hashiya Qara Khalil ala al-Fanari” are preserved at the Institute of Manuscripts of ANAS under the following codes: XVI-1789 and V-422, the copy coded XVI-1789 was printed in 1307/1889 at the “Sinaya” printing house in Istanbul. The copy coded V-422 was printed in 1874 at the “Haji Muharram Efendi Busnavi” printing house in Istanbul. On the first page of the book, the phrase Haji Abdullah Ibn al-Imam al-Nukhawi is written in black ink. This means that this book was also from the collection of Abdulghani Efendi Nukhawi Khalisagarizadeh.","PeriodicalId":66906,"journal":{"name":"文贝:比较文学与比较文化","volume":"1 4","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://dergi.neu.edu.tr/index.php/neujsml/article/download/1103/589/5412","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147905813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"A Modern Example of Discourses Between Christians and Muslims: Samiha Ayverdi’s Correspondence with Christian Missionaries and Her Views on Certain Doctrines in Christianity Through the Lenses of Sufism","authors":"Ilahe Memmedova Kurshun","doi":"10.32955/neujsml2025131078","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.32955/neujsml2025131078","url":null,"abstract":"It is well-documented that from approximately the 8th or 9th century onward, Christians and Muslims engaged in theological discourses and even composed refutations against one another. This article examines the correspondence of Samiha Ayverdi, a contemporary Turkish Sufi, with Protestant missionaries operating in the country, through which she engaged in intellectual and theological discourse. Her interpretations of the fundamental doctrines of Christianity, such as the Trinity, the Bible, the crucifixion, and original sin, have been discussed in detail. What makes the article original is her approach to these doctrines from a Sufi perspective. In this context, our study presents a unique example of Muslim-Christian discourses in modern times within the field of the comparative history of the religions.","PeriodicalId":66906,"journal":{"name":"文贝:比较文学与比较文化","volume":"1 3","pages":"97-111"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://dergi.neu.edu.tr/index.php/neujsml/article/download/1078/547/5029","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147891137","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
