A narrative of the life of Prophet Abraham from his birth to his death. The work incudes a section of 194 couplets
on the Battle of Çamurlu between Meḥmed I and his brother
Mūsā. It also contains poems in ġazel
and ḳaṣīde form. The Ḫalīl-nāme ends with a section named the Miʿrāc-nāme-i
Seyyidü’l-beşer, consisting of 567 couplets in the same meter. It narrates the ascension of Prophet Muḥammad. Although some
scholars have considered this section as a separate work, the narrative on Abraham's descendants immediately
preceeding it as well as its formal qualities do not support this assertion. Show more
