Aşık Dertli ve Divan'ında İtikadi Düşüncesi

This essay deals with Asik Dertli’s religious understanding and beliefs on tevhid (oneness of God), creation, prophecy, hereafter, fate, humanbeing and life, depending on his religious-mystical poems which have a deep extension. Asik Dertli is a sincere Muslim and an emotional folk poet that speaks about humanbeing, nature and universe. Dertli uses the verses of Qur’an directly or as a meaning in his poem which has an intensive religious and mystical content. Dertli is very closer to Ehl-i Sunnet faith in tevhid, sefaat, prophecy, hereafter World, humanbeing and destination, also he follows general principles of Islamic mysticism in his mystical approach. His poem includes some expressions that seem as like  pantheism,  as well as some narrative features of him reflect the understanding of “vahdet-i vucud”.
