Özet

The article studies the life and work of Haji Molla Mahammad Nakhchivani, who is important for the study of manuscripts about Nakhchivan in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, which are still unknown to the scientific community. Thus, the structure, philological-textological analysis and palaeographic features of his works “Sahabad-Dumu”, “Kashkulun-Nur”, “Mazahir al-Anwar”, “Gurratul-Absar”, “Durratul-Abrar” were widely studied and certain scientific conclusions have been reached. Based on the research, it was determined how rich and comprehensive the creative activity of H.M Nakhchivani is. Also, along with the structural analysis of these works, which are a valuable product of his intense creative work, it was determined that their palaeographic features are even more scientific for the modern period. Purposeful research on the life and work of prominent scientists formed by the Nakhchivan environment in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries shows that authors with truly rich knowledge and skills beme indelible figures in history. The works of Nasreddin Tusi, Ekmeleddin Nakhchivani, Najmaddin Nakhchivani, Hindushah Nakhchivani, Nematullah Nakhchivani, Mahammadali Nakhchivani, Huseyn Javid, Mirza Jalil, Mahammad Taghi Sidgi, Mammad Said Ordubadi and others, who made remarkable efforts in enlightening of Azerbaijani people, could find their worthy place. The works of such well-known personalities have found their rightful place. Any work written by them was included in the list of pearls of human culture and has been serving mankind for centuries. These valuable sources of philosophical, literary, artistic, scientific, historical and logical ideas created by our thinkers save their value by passing down from generation to generation as our national treasure. One of such thinkers is Haji Molla Mahammad Nakhchivani, who was born in Nakhchivan in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and received material and spiritual nourishment from this land.
