Abstract

This article provides with the general information about “Mahshar” novel, there are some references for various studies related to this novel and also it was made some assumptions. The article brings to notice that the scenario of “Nasimi” movie was written by Isa Muganna in 1973, and the materials about Nasimi brought by Rasul Rza from Syria were of great importance.
As long as the subject of this research is the creation of autobiography in the novel “Mahshar”, it was studied the reflection of some certain moments arising from Isa Muganna’s fate and character in the image of Nasimi. It is emphasized in the article that Azerbaijani poet Imadeddin Nasimi in his conversations with Shirvanshah Ibrahim and the ruler of the Timurid Empire notes that the world is based on science, not on fear. Hence the poet is able to prove his own point of view to rulers. The similar case happened in Isa Muganna’s life. Isa Muganna fought with his pen and thoughts arguing against wrong and unfair criticism of the Soviet regime. Amir Teymur’s faith in Nasimi ideas shows us that the science and knowledge have the greatest power. Each person lives not with fear but with understanding of his life when he turns to science in order to build his way of life and existence. Notwithstanding the fact that Isa Muganna drawn inspiration from ideas and works of Nasimi, with great skill he showed his autobiographic moments in the image of the poet in novel “Mahshar”.
