DİVAN ŞİİRİNDE HZ.İSA
JESUS CHRIST IN THE DIVAN POEM

Summary/Abstract: The name, titles, unique nativity, mother, miracles and the whole life of Jesus Christ as a Prophet have been studied in many ways and scales in the Divan poems for ages. Since the Divan poets provide the knowledge about him from the same source, Quran and Hadith, there is no doubt that they believe him and his prophethood. He has been respected deeply by all the Divan poets. That's why there is no single line which could be interpreted to humiliate or insult him in the Divan poems. Like Jesus Christ, his mother, Virgin Mary, is respected by the Divan poets as having virtue and chastity. There are plenty of references about her pregnancy and giving birth to Jesus Christ in the Divan poems. In these references, the birth of Jesus is explained clearly by Allah that he was born by a virtues mother as a miracle without having a father. Though Divan poets believed that it had been altered within the ages, they included the Holy Book Bible and its miracles in their poems respectfully. The most referred miracle of Jesus Christ was his resuscitate. Divan poets often compared their own forgiving characteristics with Jesus Christ's resuscitating the dead. Apart from the references above, Divan poets stressed ascending of Jesus Christ to Allah, his bachelorhood, his poverty, and his humbleness.
