Journal Title: İlahiyat Tetkikleri Dergisi - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 49
Abstract
Muhammed Vehbi, also known as Terzi Baba, lived in XIX. century. He devoted himself to Mawlânâ Khâleed al-Baghdâdî (d. 1242/1827), the founder of the Halidiyye branch of the Naqshbandi cult through ‘Abdullah Makkî, and became his caliph. Terzi Baba had undertaken important duties in spreading the Hâlidî branch of the Naqshbandi cult in Erzincan and its surroundings. He expressed mysticism with poetic expressions in his work Kenzü’l-Miftâh. In this article, the thoughts reflecting Muhammed Vehbi’s mystic understanding will be examined in the context of his only work, Kenzü’l-Miftâh which is the only surviving work of his. In the first part of the manuscript, which consists of two parts, Muhammed Vehbi’s life and works will be dealt with; and in the second part, his sufistic ideas mentioned in his work Kenzü’l-Miftâh will be examined. In the conclusion part, an evaluation about the subject will be done.
