Abstract
The book Maqamat-i Zhendepil, written by Sadid-al Din Muhammad Qaznavi, on Sheikh Ahmad Namqi's Keramat (Wondrous States) is one of the linguistically valuable and significant works of literature which was edited by Mo'ayyed in 1340/1961. Maqamat mirrors popular thoughts, beliefs and habits of the people of that era. From the linguistic point of view, it contains colloquial words and expressions. Also thematically, it is considered as a Sufism-oriented book, which is also about the everyday life of those living in that era and geographical location (namely Torshiz, and Khorasan in general). There are flaws in the linguistic corrections and clarifications written by the editor. The purpose of this article is to use the examples found in other books of Dari literature and to refer to them in order to find these flaws and present them accurately.
