The Scientific and Educational Importance of the Remembrance “Nasoyim Ul Mukhabbat”

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the scientific and educational significance of Alisher Navoiy’s Nasoyim ul-Muhabbat, particularly in relation to Sufi thought, the lives of Sufi figures, moral and didactic values, and its contribution to Islamic literature and intellectual history. The study employs a qualitative-descriptive approach using textual analysis and content analysis. The primary data consists of Nasoyim ul-Muhabbat, while supporting data is drawn from books, scholarly articles, and previous studies relevant to Navoiy, Sufism, tazkirah, hagiography, and education. The research findings indicate that Nasoyim ul-Muhabbat functions not only as a tazkirah that records the lives and thoughts of Sufis but also as a source of spiritual and moral knowledge. This work embodies the values of patience, humility, asceticism, self-control, the pursuit of knowledge, and the cultivation of the ideal human being. Furthermore, elements of poetry, wisdom, historical information, and intellectual connections lend this work literary, historical, autobiographical, and encyclopedic value. Thus, Nasoyim ul-Muhabbat holds significant relevance for the study of Sufism, education, literature, history, and Islamic culture.
