In the Ottoman Empire, which adopted the religion of Islam, it is seen that religious themes were transferred to the literature by the connoisseurs of the pen. The miraj event that happens to prophet Muhammed is only one of these religious themes reflected in literature both in verse and in prose. It is seen that the works written about miraj in Ottoman literature is handled with general motifs and the source of these motifs is based on the surahs of Necm and Isrâ. Lebib Efendi's Mirajiye, in which the miraj event is handled with general motifs, is one of these works. There is not much information about the author of the Mirajiye, which is thought to have been written in the 18th century. In the work, which is a mixture of verse and prose, it is seen that different motifs are processed together with typical motifs. Mirajiye carries the earliest fevaid record dated 1792 and was found in a manuscript library abroad. It has been noticed that this identified manuscript was not evaluated in academic studies in previous compilations on this genre.
