Abstract

The interest in the ideas and views of the great Turk, Khoja Ahmad Yassawi, his sect and followers started from ancient times. Like many other religious-mystical figures, poets and poets who lived in Turkestan, the personality, views and literary heritage of Khoja Ahmad Yassawi were criticised and insulted by the Soviet regime, and for a long time the works of Khoja Ahmad Yassawi were not allowed to be studied scientifically. In the 1970s, some studies conducted to objectively evaluate Khoja Ahmad Yassawi’s unprecedented services on the history of national thought, culture, language, literature and Sufism were harshly criticized and he was approached from a subjective perspective and described as a “reaction poet, mystic poet” has been criticized. Despite this, the people of Turkestan have never forgotten the holy name and wise words of this great person and never removed them from their hearts. Despite many obstacles and pursuits, Uzbek scientists tried to study the scientific legacy of Khoja Ahmad Yassawi within their own means and to disseminate it to the world of science, literature and the public. For example, in Uzbekistan, some studies on the life, works and thoughts of Khoja Ahmad Yassawi were carried out by scientists such as Abdurrahman Sâdî, Abdurrauf Fıtrat, Alim Sharafiddinov, İbrahim Muminov, Ergash Rustamov, Abdulqodir Hayitmetov, İbrahim Haqqul, Arif Usman, Najmiddin Kamilov. A few of these are articles written by the famous Uzbek academician Abdurrauf Fıtrat. In this article, these works of the late Abdurrauf Fıtrat will be analyzed and evaluated, his contributions to Yesevî studies will be emphasized.
