An Islamic History written in late Chagatai Turkish

Within the framework of Islamic civilization, the Central Asian Turkish language is accepted to be divided into three periods: Karakhanid, Khwarezm, and Chagatai Turkish. Chagatai Turkish, the third and the last period, existed as a common literary language in Central Asia between the 15th and 20th centuries. Many poetic and prose works were written in Chagatai Turkish between these centuries. The works of this period include translated works as well as copyrighted works. When these works are examined, it is seen that the number of poetic works is higher than the prose works. In addition to the history books written in poetic during this period, there are also those written in prose. The work entitled History of Islam, which is the subject of this article and was written in 1301 Hijri (1883-1884), is one of the history books written in prose. This article addresses the work that is documented in the National Library Manuscripts Department No A 2245, catalogued with the title of "History of Islam" and the language of "Chagatai Turkish", which is examined in the ongoing dissertation work. The author or copyist of the work is unknown. In the introduction of the article, general information about the history books written in the field of Chagatai literature is given. It was identified that the work entitled"History of Islam" is part of this literature. Then, in the section entitled Description of the Work, detailed information about the work is provided.
