ABSTRACT
The article analyzes the problems of studying and
teaching verses written with reference to religious expressions in a number of
examples of Azerbaijani classical literature in accordance with the original.
The necessity of studying and teaching national literature together with
religious values during the period of Azerbaijan's independence determines
the relevance of the work. This also arose from the need to analyze a people
belonging to the Islamic civilization and its literature on both national and
human values. Methods and techniques such as inductive, deductive, descriptive,
statistical, analysis and synthesis were used during the research. The article
reanalyzes the expressions, verses and verses with religious motives and
references to religion and the Qur'an found in classical literature, as well as
in the work of great artists such as Kh. Shirvani, N. Ganjavi, I. Nasimi, M.
Fuzuli, in the light of the requirements of the period of independence. It has
been shown that Khagani's "Qasidayi shiniyya" was written with
reference to the Surah "Nun wal Qalem" of the Qur'an and that
specific expressions were used. One of N. Ganjavi's minajats was written in
full accordance with the Surah "Ikhlas" of the Qur'an. In Nasimi's
works, "mazaghil basar" and similar specific examples acquire a
unique essence and content as references from the Qur'an.
