Abstract :Nabi in his pilgrimage narrative called Tuhfetü`l-harameyn quotes a number of verses from such classical Persian and Turkish poets in order to compose the narrative in a prose style accepted in his period. Most of these quotations are from 15th century Persian poet Muhyi`s Fütuhu`l-harameyn, which was also attributed to the distinguished poet Abdurrahman Cami for a long time. Despite of all these quotations, Nabi`s narrative can not be regarded as an imitation of Muhyi`s verse narrative Fütuhu`l-harameyn. Tuhfetü`l-harameyn undoubtedly remains original from the point if its content and prose style. Because it is a narrative based on Nabi`s real journey to Urfa, Damascus, Jerusalem, Cairo and Mecca in the years 1089-1090/1678-79.
