Hazrat Ali is praised in lots of Islamic sources during the history of Islam, and you can find his virtues in these sources easily. In Turkish literature, there are some poets who try to express the love and loyalty of him. One of these poets is Dervish Muhammed Yemini who lived between fifteenth and sixteenth century. Yemini, using such a wording that keeps the Hazrat Ali’s love alive, valued the love of him above everything in his work, Faziletname. In Faziletname, written in 1519 and had 7409 couplet used the type of Mesnevi, the poet wrote up many topics from the birth of Hazrat Ali to sahada of 12 Imams. Apart from these topics, Yemini created such a miracle book that he tells about the miracles of Hazrat Ali nearly the whole book. The miracles likes, talking with The Prophet before his birth, saving the birds from adragon, resuscitating someone and talking to him, entering the brick oven but not burning because of the prayer of Hazrat Ali, are declared as narration. In this study, it is talked over the miracle, carrying his own coffin that was told for centuries and written in tables. After telling about some miracles in Faziletname, this narrative text was analyzed and evaluated. To prove the miracle, the narrative text is supported with some other poets’ poetry from Sufi literature apart from this study. By analyzing and paraphrasing similar miracle that is told in Hac? Bekta? Veli’s Velayetname, it was attached to the study. Finally, about the general of the work, by the some visiuals taken in fieldworks, reflection of the art disciplines apart from the literary works was increased. As a result, it is concluded that the topic of miracle is still alive among people.
