Sıar Al-Sharif, the Poetical biography of the prophet by Shady Zhangiruly of Turkestan Region (Text-review)

In the inscriptions that have reached us there are thankful expressions with the theme of "Tengri's grace" for his help and goodness, regarding the belief in the Gök-Tengri of the Turks. After the Turks started to become Muslims in the 8th century in large groups, they experienced changes in many fields, such as thought, literature, culture and language, and they partially adapted to this change. In our study, we aimed to examine a poetic biography written in Eastern Turkish in terms of the conditions of the period, the effects of geography and its language. In the introductory part of our study, the classification of religious-literary products, genres with the theme of siyar, famous sirahs and the development of siyar in the Turkish world are discussed. Our author, Shadi Tore Zhangiruly (1855-1933), about whom we have little information, is the subject of the first chapter with his life and works. The introduction of the poetic sirah, where we can access two lithographs and one printed edition, was made in the second part. The transcription of the text is also included in the third chapter.
