- Notes
- The Muḥammedīye (محمديه) is a Turkish verse translation of the author's Arabic Maghārib al-zamān (مغارب الزمان). Prefaced by a chapter on Creation, the work treats the birth of the Prophet Muḥammad and life and events up to the deaths of Ḥasan ibn ʻAlī, d. 670 and Ḥusayn ibn ʻAlī, -680. The third section covers the end of the world and Judgment Day. Consisting of more than 8700 couplets, the Muḥammedīye (محمديه) was completed in Jumādá al-ākhir 853 [1449 CE] in Gelibolu (Turkey). The author states that he wrote the third section after having a dream in which both the Prophet Muḥammad and Hacı Bayram Veli, -1429 appeared.
- Composed for the edification for a popular audience, this work was often recited in public performances during the Ottoman period.
