Özet:

 The concept of death, which is as real as life for human beings, has been a subject that humanity has grappled with throughout history. Understanding and addressing death have been essential matter for humankind. Questions surrounding the nature of death, the afterlife, the state of the deceased, and the intricate relationship between the soul and the body that sustains life have consumed human thoughts. Monotheistic religions, with their diverse beliefs and philosophical perspectives, have presented various explanations for the concept of death. Broadly speaking, these beliefs and understandings suggest that humans transition to a different realm upon death, where they continue to exist, and that they will experience resurrection in the world after death. In all instances, death has evoked fear, sadness, and trepidation in human beings. Literature, which serves as a reflection and expression of human life, emotions, and thoughts, has not remained apathetic to the profound concept of death. It has delved deeply into this significant issue and found profound resonance within literary works. While didactic works explicitly address the subject of death to warn and capture peoples attention, literary works often seek to evoke a sense of death through symbols or implicit expressions. Ebubekir Rifat Efendi of Crimea, a representative of the later period of Divan poetry, not only explored the concept of death in various poetic forms within his divan, but also in his verses composed as masnavi poetry, specifically the works titled Nazm-ı Rüyâ ve Tabîrân-ı Rüyâ. The poet portrays the moment of death through the realm of dream fiction. In the masnavi titled Tabîrân-ı Rüyâ, he endeavors to interpret the aspects related to death. The poets primary aim is to express his emotions and thoughts regarding death. In this study, it will be examined how the concept of death is understood in various belief systems and Islamic belief and how Rifat Efendi looks at the subject in the aforementioned masnavis.

 İnsanoğlu için hayat kadar gerçek olan ölüm mefhumu insanlık tarihi boyunca anlaşılması, çözülmesi gereken bir mesele olarak görülmüştür. Ölümün mahiyeti, ölümden sonra ne olacağı, ölen insanın durumu, hayatiyeti sağlayan canruh ve beden ilişkisi; insanoğlunun zihnini sürekli meşgul etmiştir. Tek tanrılı dinlerde, çeşitli inançlarda ve felsefî düşüncelerde ölüm kavramı farklı şekillerde açıklanmıştır. Genel olarak insanın ölümle birlikte farklı bir âleme gittiği, orada varlığını devam ettirdiği; öldükten sonra varlığını sürdürmekte olduğu dünyada tekrar dirileceği inanış ve anlayışlarıdır. Her durumda ölüm insan için korkutucu, üzücü ve ürküntü verici olmuştur. İnsan hayatının, duygu ve düşünce dünyasının bir yansıması, bir ifadesi olan edebiyat ürünleri de insanın en önemli meselesi olan ölüm mefhumu karşısında ilgisiz kalmamış, yoğun bir şekilde edebî eserlerde terennüm edilmiştir. Ölüm konusu didaktik eserlerde insanı uyarmak, dikkatini çekmek maksadıyla tüm gerçekliği ile ifade edilirken sanat yönü olan eserlerde sembollerle veya üstü kapalı ifadelerle daha çok sezdirilmeye çalışılmıştır. Divan şiirinin son dönem temsilcilerinden olan Kırımlı Ebubekir Rifat Efendi, divanında ölüm mefhumunu farklı nazım şekillerinde dile getirmekle birlikte yine divanında yer alan Nazm-ı Rüyâ ve Tabîrân-ı Rüyâ adlarıyla mesnevi nazım şekliyle kaleme aldığı manzumelerinde de işlemiştir. Şair, rüya kurgusuyla ölüm anını tasvir etmektedir. Tabîrân-ı Rüyâ başlıklı mesnevide de ölümle ilgili durumları anlamlandırarak yorumlamaya çalışmaktadır. Şairin asıl maksadı ölüm konusundaki duygu ve düşüncelerini dile getirmektir. Çalışmada ölüm kavramının çeşitli inanç sistemlerinde, İslam inancında nasıl anlaşıldığı ve adı geçen mesnevilerde Rifat Efendinin konuya nasıl baktığı incelenecektir.
