Kadı Asker Şerif Mehmed Molla Efendi'nin "Melhame-i Davudiyye" sinin tahkiki

It is seen that people have made great efforts to get news about the future throughout history. For this reason, they created and developed fortune-telling, divination and astrology overtime. Traces of melham, which is similar to these species, are also found throughout history. Looking at the historical process, it is seen that the traces of the Melhames go back to the Chaldeans. In this process, we can see the presence of Melhames in every civilization, especially in Babylon, Egypt, Iran and Europe. Melhames, which are also included in the Islamic history, are used for social news works for the future and great bloody wars based on some natural events such as the eclipse of the Sun and Moon, lightning, thunder, earthquakes. There are many examples of melhame written in this genre and even though they look different when looking at them, same topics are included in the content. We see that the Melhames are also included in Judaism, Christianity and Islam. However, although Melhames has been included in Islam, care has been taken in this regard. The careful approach of Islamic scholars to the subject of melhame is due to the content of the subject includes unseen news. In addition, Melhame, which is defined as the bloody war, has an important place in terms of Armagedon / Melhame-i Kübra, which is among the history of religions subjects. The "last war" which is Armagedon in Judaism and Christianity and Melhame-i Kübra in Islam, is the most violent and bloody war that is believed to take place before the apocalypse. One of the many works written on melhame is a manuscript called Kitâb-ı Melhame-i Davûdiyye. This work, which gives information about future social, political and agricultural events based on natural events, consists of twenty two titles. The style of the work was written as conditional sentences (if it is like this, it will be like this).
