Summary/Abstract: Hussein Lamekani (died in 1625), an Ottoman poet and mystic, left behind several mystical epistles, one of which deals with the stages (maḳāmāt) on the path of spiritual perfection of a dervish and the states (aṭvār) that his soul passes through on its return to its divine source. Today, the epistle is preserved in two manuscripts, one in Uppsala and one in Izmir, and the author presents it in translation with the necessary comments on terminology.
