Mustafa R？h？ from Kilis's Na’t Discovered in a Poetry Journal

Poetry journals are one of the references that have a great importance in terms of literature history. Sometimes journals help the main sources of the literature history, other times they function as the only source, because of that they fill a great void in literature history. Since journals harbour may poets, poems, varieties and documents that are not used in tezkires which are the main sources of the literature history, they are taken into account as one of the sources of the literature history. Today through journals we can reach some of the poems that are not in printed divans, we can find many poets who cannot be seen in tezkires, that we do not have any knowledge about their divans and poems. As a matter of fact Na’t of R？h？ from Kilis that subject to our paper was found in journal, registered with number 06 Mil Yz A 3259 in Milli Kütüphane. Na’t is a poetry type that tells about Hz. Muhammed’s love, praise and grace; subjects His prophecy, miracles, hijra, sufferings, and supernatural events that He experienced like his intercession and his ascension to heaven. Writing Na’t became a tradition among Turkish poets and usually came after tawhid and münacaat in organized Divans. Mustafa R？h？ from Kilis also followed this tradition and wrote a na’t with 115 couplets in mesnevi verse form. In this paper, the Na’t of R？h？ from Kilis that found in journal which registered with number 06 Mil Yz A 3259 in Milli Kütüphane will be investigated in terms of form and content and na’ts ？evriyaz？l？ text will be given
