The first works of the series of epics “Khamsa” by the great thinkers Nizami Ganjavi and Alisher Navoi are called “Makhzan ul-Asror” and Hayrat ul-Abror “. Both epics are on a philosophical-ethical theme, reflecting the social views of the great scholar-poets. “Makhzan ul-Asror” is written in Persian, and “Hayrat ul-Abror” is written in Turkish. Although these works are ideologically complementary, they are by no means a repetition of each other. A comparative analysis of both epics highlights the uniqueness of the method of expression, the different attitudes to events and happenings, and the importance of the variety of exemplary stories.

Prof. E.E. Bertels expressed the same opinion. But the Azerbaijani literary critic objected to this idea. He believes that Nizami's Hamsa has nothing to do with Hakim Sanoi's epic. We will now limit ourselves to reporting these comments. Because the issue of Industry and Nizami is a big issue. It should be considered separately. M.R.
