Sarı Âşık Akabâlî Mirzâde Mustafa Fahreddin Mîr Seyyid Hamza Nigârî Seyyid Muhammed Şemseddin
As the ancient collections of biography do not talk about the art of Ozan-Ashik,
the antiquity of creativities cannot reach to the day-to-day like our classical
works. Sari Ashik is one of the most mysterious ozans, so a lot of conflicting
information was given about him. The article about Sari Ashik published in
the magazine “Knowledge about Azerbaijani country” in 1934, Istanbul, was
the first one about Sari Ashik appeared abroad and the third research about the
ozan after Garadaghi and Salman Mumtaz’s articles published in Azerbaijan.
Though more than 80 years passed from the publication of this article, it still
draws attention as a most distinctive research about the ashik art. This valuable
article hasn’t been worthily researched by the scholars up to now and the main
reason of it could be the lack of knowledge about the author. The author just
himself reveals the mystery of the article. The author was called Mirzadeh M.
Fahreddin. His real name is Mustafa Fahreddin Akabali (1889-1972) and he is
Mir Mustafa’s grandson, who is Mir Seyyid Hamza Nigari’s cousin. We consider
that this article, which will open the new ways to the scientific discussions
about Sari Ashik’s real name, especially, the period he lived in, will change
the contradictious opinions on this topic from the standpoint of Mirza Mustafa
Fahreddin’s “Sari Ashik, one of the Azerbaijani ashiks” and Mir Seyyid Hamza
Nigari’s “Humayu-Arsh” works. We have done our study following the three
generations of the famous seyyid descendant: Seyyid Muhammad Shemseddin
Akabali (Mir Seyyid Hamza Nigari’s great-great-grandfather), Mir Seyyid
Hamza Nigari and Mirzadeh Mustafa Fahreddin Akabali.
