- Aḥvāl-i Ḳıyāmet
- A mes̱nevī of 289 couplets on aspects of afterlife. The mes̱nevī has subsequently been revised by Şeyyād ʿĪsā, who also added 55 couplets.
- Dāstān-ı Yūsuf u Züleyḫā
- A mes̱nevī of 1529 couplets narrating the tale of Yūsuf and Zulaykhā. It is an abridged version of the work by Süle Faḳīh. Five moral commentaries (nükte) are interspersed throughout the tale. The poem’s tone and narrative devices resemble those of folk narrative. It is written in plain Turkish, with relatively few Arabic and Persian words, resulting in a meter which is frequently erroneous and/or ambiguous.
