The place of Azerbaijan in Shahnameh and Iranian culture
Ferdowsi has praised and honored Azerbaijan more than any other poet in his divan.
Hakim Toos has given such a high status to Azerbaijan that he considers this land as a symbol of victory and humanity over the demonic forces. . The Holy Land of Azerbaijan empowers this hero of Iran and makes him worthy of a narrative decree . Finally, his final victory over the enemies occurs in Azerbaijan. Yes, Ferdowsi in the myth of Kaykhosrow has given a unique role to Azerbaijan and considers this land to be forever the history, the origin of Iranian movements and the manifestation of Iranian victory. . The role that Ferdowsi portrayed for Azerbaijan was repeated many times later in history. The Safavid movement emerged from this region. Achieves his most victories .
This note, with the help of Ferdowsi's Shahnameh, refers to a journey from Kaykhosrow's travels to Azerbaijan and shows the connection of the cherished region of Azerbaijan with other parts of Iran since ancient times. Points out . Kaykhosrow's first trip is to burn Azargashp in Azerbaijan, his second trip to Azerbaijan is when he sits on a throne and intends to visit other parts of Iran, and his third trip is when he hates the blood of his father Siavash from Turanian. .
In his travels to Azerbaijan, Ferdowsi refers to the burning of Azargeshp by Kikhosrow and endorses the Avestan religious tradition and national traditions in the beautiful language of poetry. slow . Ferdowsi beautifully expresses the valuable religious and national aspects of the Azarabad region in the chronicles. : According to the order of Kikaus, first Fariborz and Toos go to Azerbaijan to conquer Bahman Fortress and set fire to Azargashep, but they do not succeed. :
When the sun rose on the lion tower
The shield brought the night down
Fariborz with Toos Nozar, Daman
Come closer to Shah Jahan
Be Tus with his flag Kaviani
He put the sole of his shoe inside
Fariborz Kaus in the heart
To the inside of Tus and Pil and Sepah
When the avalanche reached the fort
The earth was like a fire
The Sinan also sold out of the heat
A man of war burned in the armor
The earth is full of fire
…
Q: From the failure of Fariborz and Toos in capturing Bahman Fortress, Kaykhosrow, which has a sacred aspect in mythological history and national and religious traditions, is commissioned by Kikavous to capture Bahman Fortress and set up Azargoshasp and demolish the devil's idol house. :
When awareness came to the freedmen
On Pir Goodarz Keshavadegan
When Tus and Fariborz returned
A very important point that can be mentioned in Ferdowsi's Shahnameh about the ancient and historical connection of Azerbaijan with other parts of the great country of Iran is the composition of the Iranian army in the battle of Kaykhosrow with Afrasiab Turani. . In these verses, Ferdowsi refers to the places from where the force was mobilized to fight the "Turanian Turks", and in the meantime, he also refers to Azerbaijan and the heroes who have been provided from this region for battle, and this is while The Pan-Turks have always tried to unite the Turanians of Turkish descent and the Turkic-speaking Azeris and to insinuate that Ferdowsi is anti-Azerbaijani and anti-Persian. These verses tell the truth and are a good answer for nonsense .
Anyone from Zabulistan
And if the elder and themselves shake hands
One was the king of Khozian
Shit battle was associated with the bed
In one hand, he killed Tus
Manushan and Khoran Farkhondeh Rai
Who were king of Persia
Manushan and Khoran Zarrin Kolah
The other Shah of Kerman during the war
You did not take it to heart, vote late
The elders from Barda and Ardabil
They were very forward
Give another army to Khorasan
Jahangji and anthropologists
Ten thousand battalions and warriors
The king chose the door of the campaign….
It is enough to pay a little attention to the above poems and find two points.….Kermani with Arani Barda and Azerbaijani Ardebili and the second .. the sanctity of the land of Azerbaijan in Shahnameh
Myth means the ideals and beliefs of the people of a land throughout history . Iranians have also crystallized their ideals in their myths . Myths whose main message is striving for justice, fighting oppression and tirelessly striving for good over evil . Kaykhosrow is one of the greatest Iranian myths that includes the historical mission of the glory of Iran and the kneeling of the enemies of this region in order to create a better and more prosperous world. . He is one of the mythical heroes of Iran who brings all the enemies of Iran to their knees and rises to the hatred of the Iranians. It has been Azerbaijan . The role of Azerbaijan in the epic of Kaykhosrow in Ferdowsi Shahnameh is a sign of Ferdowsi's sacred attitude towards Azerbaijan .
Hakim has given such a high status to Azerbaijan that he considers this land as a symbol of victory and humanity over the demonic forces. …
The enemy of Ferdowsi is not only the enemy of Iran, but also the enemy of Azerbaijan and, according to Hakim Toos, the land of the free.…
It goes without saying that in all historical and mythological texts and religious and national narrations (Including Shahnameh) Along with other regions of Iran, the region of Azerbaijan is mentioned, but the importance of Kaykhsaro's works in Azerbaijan has made this region have a symbolic value for all Iranians. Hakim Abolghasem Ferdowsi has also expressed it in a very epic and beautiful way, among other things that Ferdowsi In it, he mentions Kaykhosrow. Kaykhosrow's journey after sitting on the royal throne is to important parts of Iran, where he also talks about Azerbaijan.:
I want to see the whole earth
All borders of Iran with Afarin
All the canvas of Iran went around
It passed into ruin and destruction
Each of them was inhabited
He was evil and was devastated
Sit in every city and make a bed
Such as the canvas of lucky people
Such in Azarabadgan
Be with the elders and the free
The wind blew the horse
Come to Khan Azargashsab
He praised the creator of the world
He prayed at the fire temple…
(Ali Ajami Azarabadgani)
Poems about Azarabadgan in Ferdowsi Shahnameh:
Noshin Ravan's reign was forty-eight years > The beginning of the story
The first Khorasan mentioned him and made the hearts of famous people happy
The other bad beneficiaries of Qom and Isfahan were the institutions of the elders and the place of Mahan
It was the interest of the Azerbaijanis who forgave the freedmen
Kingdom of Bahram Gore > Eat a few bites like this
Vazan took the place of Lashkar-e-Andar and marched towards Azarabadgan
Chou won a large army from Persia. Such was the vote of the elders and wisdom
Bahramshah, who fled the war, went to Azar
Kingdom of Khosrow Parviz > My paradise is the sun
My paradise is the sun
From the doorway, the sound of the air of the ebony corps rose
The army chose Azazadegan to come to Azarabadgan
Kaykhosrow's reign was sixty years > Kaykhosrow's reign was sixty years
And there you went to another city with May and Takht and you became an officer
He went to Azarabadgan, Aba, the elders and the freedmen
Sometimes the wind blew and sometimes the horse attacked and came to Khan Azargashsp
Kingdom of Bahram Gore > Chou was built as a fire temple
Chou was built as a fire temple in the same place as Nowruz and the celebration of the century
Come to your Azarabad people and celebrities and freedmen
The worshipers became pre-Azar and all the priests shook hands
Forgive the worshipers of the fire temple on the sharp foundation
Noshin Ravan's reign was forty-eight years > Chinese Khaqan war with the Italians
Towards Ctesiphon, there was no treasure and no army left from Yalan
All Azdagan Special Battalion should come to Azarabadgan
Troops come from every country from Gilan and from Diliman Lashkari
Hello.
Azerbaijani Turks have fought with many other Turks throughout history, Safavid Turks with Ottoman Turks, Ghaznavid Turks with Seljuk Turks, Khwarazmi Turks with Mongols.…..
This does not mean that the Azerbaijani people who fought with the Turani Turks mentioned by Ferdowsi are not Turks!!!
You see, I understand the value of your work, and this work of yours deserves the best, but many reject the prohibitions of the Turanians being Turks. .
Almost no source denies that the Turks were Turanians.
Tour + Ran Tour + K If it is in the past, the main origin of this breed was in Central Asia, like the Turks..
The Scythians had many traditions, including nomadic pastoralism, warfare, and a disorganized army. Of course, it must be said that the Turanians may not have been just an army of Turks. Maybe they will be involved in this issue, if it is in the chronological order of Turan's attack on Iran, neither the Japanese nor the Koreans will start to show their power on the world map, and even the Turks themselves ! (I will not name the Mongols's because the number of Mongols is so small today that many doubts remain and many agree that the Mongols are in fact a group symbolizing the Altaic language.)
Thank you, it was very useful
Hello, I am an Azeri and I am proud of being Iranian and Azeri, and also to the great Ferdowsi. The yellow Turks are the skin of Central Asia. The Mongols are also cracked. Are we similar in appearance?
The Islamic Revolution has also flourished and come to fruition in Azerbaijan. Do not be ashamed to say this.
