Cluster types in Classical Turkish Literatüre: Ricalülgayb/Heavenly Hosts

Classical Turkish poetry, which has survived for nearly six hundred centuries, is rich in cultural sources. Folk beliefs and beliefs constitute one of these sources. The rijâlülgayb / ghayb erenleri, who have gained an important position in the society, reveal the belief elements of the society by reflecting the historical, social, cultural and religious phenomena in the background with their typeappearances in classical Turkish poetry. In this study, the group type appearances of the rijâlülgayb group, which is a part of the field of Sufism, in classical Turkish poetry are included. With an interdisciplinary study, after giving the dictionary and Sufi meanings of the layers in the hierarchy of rijāl al-ghayb, which Ibn al-'Arabȋ finalized with an interdisciplinary study, the type appearances of the concepts were evaluated and shown by translating them into contemporary Turkish through the couplets in 167 Divan scanned. Of the 62 concepts of rijāl al-ghayba analyzed, 35 types were found to be reflected in classical Turkish poetry. The metaphorical elements of 88 people who lived in real life and had political, social and religious identities in society were explained through witness couplets.
