Entombed Saints in Muş and Their Epics
Abstract
Ölüm olgusuyla birlikte anılan yatır-ziyaret, evliya, veli kavramları, ilkel dönemlerden günümüze taşınan ölüm kültüyle paralel giden inançlardandır. İnancın yaygınlığı ve önemiyle bağlantılı olarak da kendine özgü uygulanan pratiklere sahip olmasıdır. Bu uygulamaların en önemli ayağını ise, bugün Anadolu'nun her yerinde rastlayabileceğimiz yatırlar üzerlerinde oluşturulan menkıbelerin halen varlıklarını sürdürüyor olmalarıdır. Hemen hemen her yerde bu ziyaretlere rastlamak mümkündür. İbadetgah olarak düşünüldüğünden buraya gidişler de ritüel şeklinde olmaktadır. Belirlenen günde birden çok ziyarete sırayla gidilip buralarda ibadet edilmesi, özellikle geleneksel inanç içinde önemli sayılan günlerde buralara gidilmesi dini bir farz olarak değerlendirilmektedir.Muş ve çevresinde tespit edilen 95 yatır ve bu yatırlarla ilgili anlatılan 112 menkıbeden de yola çıkarak, Muş'taki yatırların ve bunların etrafındaki uygulamaların Anadolu ve Türk dünyasının diğer yörelerinden pek farklı olmadığını görülüyor. Dinle çelişmeyen eski Türk inanışlarının izleri ile bazı evrensel sihrî uygulamaları bir arada toplayan yatırlar, halkın çeşitli problemlere karşı pratik çözüm ihtiyacından doğmuş ve etraflarında bir inanma dairesi teşekkül etmiştir.Anahtar Kelime: Ölüm, Yatır, Ziyaret, Ritüel
