Biographical notes

Turkish mystic poet and Ḫalvetī shaykh, who is the only Anatolian Safavid poet with an extant dīvān prior to the politicization and Shî’itization of the order. His real name is İsmā‘il, سماعیل His pen figures as" Kemāl Ümmī" in all historical sources but is used as both " Kemāl Ümmī" and " Ümmī Kemāl" in his Dīvān (دیوان), tough the first form hagiography. Biographical sources state that Kemāl Ümmī was born and raised in Karaman (Turkey), in the town of Lārende. The Sālnāme of Bolu (Turkey), however, mentions that he was from Bukhara (Uzbekistan). The place of origin of Khurāsān (Iran) which appears in his hagiography composed by a certain Dervīş ‘Aḥmed can be a generic place name indicating his dervish circle and temperament. According to his hagiography, the poet lived in Bolu (Turkey) for a long time and established a lodge in a rural area in the vicinity of the city. He had three sons. His son Sinān was a sober, educated man who criticized his father for being "ümmī". His son Cemāl was an ecstatic who was unjustly executed by the sultan of the period. Oral tradition in Bolu (Turkey) also states that he had a sister named Şehribān, together with whom he had moved from Khurāsān (Iran) to the village of Çal in the area of Dörtdīvān, Bolu. According to information in the Bolu Şer‘iyye Sicilleri, Kemāl Ümmī was married, had children and his lineage continued in Tekke Köyü, Dörtdīvān, Bolu and more recently in Gerede, Bolu. In a fermān sūreti dated1117 AH [1705 CE] , written to the qāḍīs of Bolu (Turkey) and Dörtdīvān, Bolu, it is mentioned that some previleges had been granted to his descendants since the time of Sulṭān Süleymān. Kemāl Ümmī's choice of pen name indicates that he did not have an official education. His Dīvān (دیوان) includes a mers̱iye for his master Şeyḫ Ḥamīdüddīn Aḳsarāyī or with his better known name Somuncu Baba (d. 1412), who was also the master of Ḥacı Bayrām Velī (d.1430). It also includes a mers̱iye and a medḥiye for Şeyḫ ‘Alī Erdebīlī (d. 1429), the grandson of Ṣafiyyü’d-dīn Erdebīlī (d.1334). The connection between Kemāl Ümmī and Şeyḫ ‘Alī Erdebīlī (d. 1429) is thus established through his master Ḥamīdüddīn Aḳsarāyī , who visited Şeyḫ ‘Alī Erdebīlī (d. 1429) and stayed with him for some time. Parts of Kemāl Ümmī's Dīvān suggests that he may also have done the same. We learn from Kemāl Ümmī's mers̱iye that he became the disciple of Muẓafferü’d-dīn Lārendī, one of his master's ḫalīfes, after the death of his master. Among the people in Kemāl Ümmī's circle were Ḥacı Bayrām Velī (d.1430), presented by his hagiography as his close friend, and his two disciples Aḳçavaḳlı Ṣarı Müderris and Yaġlucalı ‘Alī Kevkeb Ḳutbu’d-dīn. According to his hagiography, the followers of Kemāl Ümmī were called “Kemāllü”. He did not consider himself a master and did not leave any successors. His hagiography presents him as the inventor of ẕikr from the throat, also called ḳoyun ẕikri or bıçḳı ẕikri. Reference is also made to Kemāl Ümmī in Vilāyetnāme-i Sulṭān Şücā‘ü’d-dīn (ولایتنامۀ سلطان شوجاع الدین) , where along with Seyyid Nesīmī and Ḳayġusuz Abdāl he travels to Seyitġāzī to see Sulṭān Şücā‘. His disrespect towards Sulṭān Şücā‘'s leads to Sulṭān Şücā‘'s prophecy that he will be hanged. This account is taken up by some of the biographical sources where it is stated that he was executed. Kemāl Ümmī's date of death appears as 880 AH [1475 CE] in Ottoman sources. His grave is situated in the village named Işıklar (with the old name of Tekke in the area of Sazak 39 km. southeast of Bolu (Turkey). He also has various maḳām in places such as Karaman (Turkey), Manisa (Turkey), Niğde (Turkey).

Biographical notes

The pen-name of Cemālī is also used by Sufi poet Meḥmed Cemāleddīn (d. 1164/1744), which may result in a confusion of the two in mecmū‘a and cönk collections. In many of these the same pen-name also appears for Cemāl-i Ḫalvetī (d.899/1494), again leading to a possible confusion.

Cemālī is the nephew of famous court poet Şeyḫī (d. 832/1428-9).He may have also been called Şeyḫoġlı Cemālī or Şeyḫoġlı, leading to his confusion with the poet Şeyḫoġlı (d. after 803/1401-- before 812/1409). His date of birth is unknown. However it is generally accepted that he was born around 813-815 [1410-1412 CE], inferred from the estimation that he was around the age of twenty when he wrote an appendum to Şeyḫī’s Ḫusrev ü Şīrīn. Cemālī was most probably from Karaman, although he may also have been from Bursa. In addition to the nisba of el-Aḳşehrī, the nisba of el-Aḳsarāyī also appears in some manuscripts. Both towns indicate a Karamanid origin. Cemālī may have received his education in the Germiyān Beylik (Kütahya), the home town of his uncle Şeyḫī. Poems in Arabic and Persian in his Dīvān show that he was well-educated and versed in these languages. He may also have been a musician. A number of inscriptions in Bursa composed by Cemālī indicate that he may have spent part of his life in this city. Cemālī moved to Istanbul during the reign of Meḥmed II. His Dīvān includes several poems in praise of the conquest of Constantinople.Cemālī’s own reference to his old age at the time of his participation in the siege of Albania (Siege of Shkodra) in 883 AH [1478 CE] is our only definite source to the last years of his life. Cemālī’s Dīvān abounds in poetry dedicated to Meḥmed II to whom his other works are also dedicated, but no reference is made anywhere to Bāyezīd II. In contrast to the statements found in biographical dictionaries, where Cemālī is shown to have lived to the end of the reign of Bāyezīd II, we must thus conclude that he probably died at the end of the reign of Meḥmed II or in the early years of the reign of Bāyezīd II. In Osmanlı Müellifleri it is stated that his grave is located near the lodge of Emīr Buḫārī outside of Edirnekapı.

Notes

Cemālī’s Dīvān was written after Meḥmed II’s siege of Albania in 883 AH [1478 CE]. Its only extant copy consists of 54 folios. It includes several poems in praise of Meḥmed II and the siege of Constantinople. Also in the Dīvān are poems in Arabic and Persian.
