Stylistic Functionalization of Words and Phrases Related to Sufi Mysticism in Alisher Navoi’s “Nasoyim Al-Muhabbat”

Ubaydullaev Abdullo Khabibullo ugli , Lecturer, Oriental University, Uzbekistan

Abstract

This paper examines the stylistic and linguistic features of Alisher Navoi’s Nasoyim al-muhabbat, with a focus on the functionalization of Sufi terminology and symbolic expressions. Inspired by Jami’s Nafahāt al-uns, Navoi’s work demonstrates a distinct narrative style, rich in mystical imagery and spiritual symbolism. The study analyzes how terms like Mahbub (Beloved), Soqiy (Cupbearer), Lab (Lips), Qosh (Eyebrows), Bel (Waist), and Ko‘z (Eyes) are recontextualized to convey deeper Sufi meanings. A particular emphasis is placed on the use of parcellation—a stylistic device that separates syntactic units for expressive and communicative effect. The article argues that this technique enhances the poetic and aesthetic quality of the text, especially in dialogues. Through textual analysis, the study reveals how Navoi’s language reflects a profound engagement with Naqshbandi teachings and Sufi thought, elevating his work beyond mere hagiography into the realm of spiritual philosophy and stylistic mastery.
