Sufism is a
significant science that was shaped within Islamic civilization and formed a
basis for Turkish Islamic Literature. The existence and its quality and the
relationship among man, world and God are the basic issues of sufism. The
properties of nafs and the purification of nafs are the matters that are dealt
within sufism. In this context, sufis tried to explain nafs in stages and wrote
books that are named atvar-ı seba. One of the authors who wrote a book within
the scope of this tradition is Nidâî Ankaravî. Nidâî, famous for his doctorship wrote Risâle-i Tarikat-ı Nidâî’ that is about stages of nafs. In this study, the
content of Risâle-i
Tarikat-ı Nidâî will be evaluated. Then,
the transcribed text will be given. We aim to reveal the ideas of Nidâî about
the properties and stages of nafs and the purification methods of nafs.
