Abstract
The article presents the Mevlid (from the Arabic mawlid), poetic panegyrics addressed to Holy Prophet Muhammad (on whom be peace and blessings) by Suleyman Celebi. Over the centuries, mevlids and other compositions in praise off the Holy Prophet have continued to be produced in languages as diverse as Turkish, Urdu and Malay and have become established as a separate genre in the religious literature and languages of the ummah.
