The importance of manuscripts that hold both scientific, scientific and aesthetic values together is an undeniable fact. Manuscripts, which are among the most important elements that form the culture of a nation, are now available in the manuscripts library of many cities, especially Istanbul. Study examined on; Istanbul University Manuscripts Library is registered to the Turkish manuscripts section. XIX. It is a work written by Muhammed Rasim Hikmet in the 19th century, which includes hab-name in terms of subject, but also touches on different subjects. In the introductory part of our study, firstly, the "hab-name" genre and the studies in Turkish literature related to this genre are included. Later, the work was handled in terms of its physical features and style. In addition to the imprint and copy information, the work was evaluated in terms of language and style. Subsequently, the work was examined thematically. It is seen that the author examined seven main titles (starnames, palmistry, garments, prophets, menakibnamas, religious-mystical explanations of some terms and concepts) in his study. In this work, which is the product of an allegorical work, the author has made some animals (camel, horse, lion, peacock, panther, bird, ant, rabbit, phoenix, pigeon, turtle ostrich) talked and continued the majority of the work in the form of question and answer. He provided the work of uniformity. Muhammad Rasim Hikmet used more than a hundred verses and hadiths in Hab-name, which often benefited from religious-mystical sources. Among the Sufi sources, he made the most of Muhyiddin-i Arabi's works named Fütuhat-ı Mekkiyye, and cited many basic sources of Sufism.
