Baba Rahim Mashrab is one of the sufi poets who lived in the Post-Classical Period of Chagatai Turkish (1600-1921). In this period, when there was no political authority in the field of Turkestan and the small khanates established were in constant conflict, it is possible to say that naturally artistic and literary activities were interrupted and there was no development. In general, it is seen that the poets who lived in this process wrote poems under the influence of Ali Shir Navai, who gave Chagatai Turkish its classical form and is mentioned as the most important name of Chagatai Turkish, and they could not go beyond imitating him in terms of literature. However, Mashrab is a significant person who both distinguished himself from other poets living in his time and gained a reputation for centuries with his works, extraordinary lifestyle, sufi personality and unique style. "Shah (Îşân) Mashrab Manaqibnama" is a verse-prose mixed work containing sections from the Baba Rahim Mashrab’s life story. Along with the prose parts, the poems in the work also contain poems related to the plot told in the aforementioned stories. In the mentioned poems, many subjects such as religion, mysticism, history, geography and mythology were used in line with the information the poet wanted to convey to his addressee and the messages he wanted to give. One of these issues is the staff that we have determined to be handled and processed intensively in the poems. This density and diversity in the characters, on the other hand, provides remarkable information in terms of showing the poet's dominance over the field, his ability to use these people in his poems, and the depth of meaning in the poems. In this study, we will examine the Persian mythological figures mentioned in Baba Rahim Mashrab Manaqibnama. In the study, we will classify and present how and how often the poet uses the mentioned persons in his poems, with sample texts selected from the poems and explanations of these texts, in the light of general information about the mythological persons who will form the subtitles.
