* Brief introduction of Kamral Abdal (1286-1210) *
#Kamral_Abdal's name is noteworthy in the history of the Ottoman Empire, he is mentioned in history in two books in Turkish language, one of which is named Tawarikh-ul-Uthman which was written by Ashiq Pashazad. He is mentioned in another Turkish book, Hasht Behesht, which was written by Idris Batalisi. Hasht Behesht means the eighth heaven.
Ashiq Pashazad writes that Kamral Abdal was born in the year 1210, but history is silent on the area in which he was born. According to historical references, his name was Turgat or Darut. He was a close disciple of Sheikh Adibali. Sheikh Adibali lived in those days in a village called Atbarno, where Sheikh Sahib used to teach people religious as well as secular sciences. Because according to history, Sheikh Adibali was also an important part of an organization of honest professional craftsmen which is in Turkey and in Arabic is called Akhya Tehreek. And the skilled people associated with this movement used to adopt different professions keeping in view the Islamic principles. There, Kamral Abdal was present in the service of Sheikh Adibali and after receiving religious education from Sheikh Adibali, he also taught other people who came there according to his order. It is said that when Usman Ghazi stayed at the house of Sheikh Adibali, he had a famous dream. And after waking up, when he told his dream to Sheikh Adibali, Kamral Abdal was also there. Sheikh Adibali had sent the interpretation of this dream about the establishment of the empire to Usman through Kamral Abdal. When Kamral Abdal announced the good news that he would lay the foundation of the empire, Usman Ghazi gave his sword and cup to Kamral Abdal as a reward.
According to the famous Ottoman historian Idris Batalisi, Kamral Abdal was a dervishes who took active part in the jihad against the infidels. And they lived in the city of Yeni before the establishment of the Ottoman Empire. They discovered about Uthman that this boy would lay the foundation of a great empire in the future. And since then he has enthusiastically participated in the wars of Usman Ghazi. Kamral Abdal used to hold Uthman's flag in Uthman's wars. According to Idris Batalisi, Usman Ghazi also built a house in Yeni city for Kamral Abdal and named the adjoining villages and fields after him.
The date of death of Kamral Abdal is given in the year 1286 and this time is around the death of Ertugrul Ghazi. Friends, there is a contradiction between the two historians. If we accept the date of death of Kamral Abdal as 1286, then he had died before Usman Ghazi became the Sultan. And according to both of them, Kamral Abdal's residence was in two different places.
In addition, another Turkish historian, Ahmad Dede, who was born in 1631, mentions the historical facts of Idris Batalisi in his book, but he also adds that "Kamral Abdal had a dream. I visited Hazrat Khidr (as) who gave the good news of a long lasting kingdom to Kamral Abdal. And then Kamral Abdal gave this good news to Usman Ghazi.
Kamral Abdal's mausoleum is located on Bursa Eski شہرehir Road in Y یldیرr District of Belyچk Province, Turkey. Kamral Abdal was a Sufi and a fascist as well as a sage. When the mysteries of the universe appeared to him, he did not remain in his senses and began to live in a state of absorption. In other words, their condition became as if people call us Qalandar. But even in this world of passion, his words were full of knowledge and cognition. Kamral Abdal Sahib Karamat was an elder. He also performed many miracles which are mentioned in history. In the world of this passion, he would often say things that ordinary people may not understand, but they were full of knowledge and cognition. Many places in Turkey are also named after Kamral Abdal. However, Kamral Abdal is a really real person and this character is based on reality. However, they are very important in the history of the Ottoman Empire.
