Iraqi Maqam المقام العراقي
Mahitabim Beyi Seyrane Mi Çiktin Bu Gece
Mullah 'Uthman al-Musili (Musullu Hafız Şaşı Osman Efendi)
c. 1920, Istanbul, Turkey.

Rare recording of Iraqi musician, Sufi icon, and maqam reader Mulla 'Uthman al-Mosuli (1854-1923) singing in Turkish, recorded in Istanbul, c. 1920.

تسجيل قديم و نادر للملا عثمان الموصلي يغني "ماهيتابم" بالتركية، تسجيل أسطوانة من اسطنبول سنة ١٩٢٠.

الملا عثمان الموصلي بن الحاج عبد الله بن عمر ولد في الموصل سنة ١٨٥٤ و توفي في بغداد سنة ١٩٢٣ ودفن في مقبرة الغزالي. اخذ المقام العراقي من الحاج عبد الله الكركوكلي ومن رحمة الله شلتاغ (١٧٩٨-١٨٧٢) و امين آغا ابن الحمامجيه. و قرأ القراءات في الموصل و درس الموسيقى و العزف و الشعر و العلوم الشرعية و كان كفيفا لا يبصر. ومن الذين تلقوا عنه اصول التلاوة و النغم الحاج عبد القادر عبد الرزاق خطيب جامع الامام الاعظم والسيد محمود الهاشمي والملا مهدي الحافظ وعبد الفتاح معروف ومحمد صالح الجوادي والحاج محمود عبد الوهاب و ابوالخليل القباني والشيخ محمد رفعه من مصر و غيرهم. كان كثير الاسفار في البلاد والتجول فيها وكان صوته غليظا أجش وفيه بحة. والى الملا عثمان تنسب عشرات التنزيلات والاشغال المولدية المستعملة الى اليوم في العراق في الموالد النبوية. و كان يحتفظ محمد صالح الخطاط باسطوانات شمعية فيها شئ من تلاوة الملا عثمان بصوته غير انها مضطربة مشوشة.
*
الملا والشيخ والحافظ والمتصوف والموسيقار والشاعر عثمان الموصلي رائد الموسيقى العربية الحديثة وكان أسطورة في التلاوة وقراءة الموالد والاذكار كما اتقن فصول المقام العراقي وسجل الاسطوانات وعلم الموسيقى والتلاوة في كافة ارجاء الدولة العثمانية. كان رئيس القراء في جامعي المرادية والخفافين في بغداد وبرزت شهرته في اسطنبول وقرأ القرآن في بلاط السلطان عبد الحميد و جامع صوفيا كما قرأ في الجامع الاموي والازهر.

هو صاحب المدرسة العثمانية في التلاوة وتنسب اليه الكثير من الالحان والموشحات والتنزيلات (مرادف البسته في الغناء الديني) منها ما نسب الى مجهول او الى التراث او الى تلاميذه، نذكر منها "زوروني كل سنه مرة" (كانت "زر قبر الحبيب مرة") و "فوكَ النخل فوكَ" (كانت "فوكَ العرش فوكَ") و"طلعت يا محلى نورها" (كانت "بهوى المختار المهدي") و "ربيتك زغيرون حسن" (كانت "يا صفوه الرحمن سكن") و"اشكَر بشامة" (كانت "احمد بحسنه سبانا") و"للعاشق في الهوى دلائل" و "ليت امي لم تلدني" و "لغه العرب اذكرينا" و"يا غزالا في الفلاة" و"يا خشوف العلى المجريه" و "صلي يا ربي على خير الانام" و"ناح الحمام القمري" و يا الهي بالتهاني" و يا راحلين اليه بالامان" و "نلت المقام الاشرف" و "نال العلا و الفضل و النجاة" و "املأ و اسقينا" و "آه يا سيدي"، وغيرها كثير.

و قد ادخل مقامي النهاوند و الحجازكار الى المقام العراقي وادخل على مقام الحجاز عناصر من مقام الديوان التركي الذي كان يغنى في الموصل وكان اول من ذيل المقامات بالبستات التى حورها من تنزيلات المولد النبوي ومنها يا صياد السمج، دزني ، لاناشد القبطان، قدك المياس، يم العيون السود، الليله حلوة، النوم محرم، يا بنت المعيدي، يا حلو يا مسليني، وطالعة من بيت ابوها. من تلاميذه عبد الرزاق القبانجي (والد محمد)، محمد خيوكه (والد حسن) واحمد الموصلي وعبد القادر الموصلي واحمد حسين الصفو و نجم الشيخلي و سيد درويش وغيرهم.

  • he smelled the fish an said "My son, this is another fish!"..in 1917 I had met him in Baghdad, without talking I kisses his hand, he took my hand and he had recognized me. In the Modi Hüzzam, Nihavend, Bestenigar, Sabâ, Hüseynî and Rast he have beatiful songs. His time of dead I couldn't found. ....."

    I think that the photo's, with arabic letters, Uthman Al Musilli, is taken in Baghdad.

    but unfortunately the Gazels belong to Sasi osman Efendi my brother.

    do you have listnen Hafiz Sami?

  • @friendsofmehdi

    i read that hafiz osman sasi may be a different person from musullu hafiz osman, but unfortunately, there isnt much information in Arabic here about their recordings in Istanbul, and even their voice sounds very similar to me. so I'm sure there is a mix up somewhere. the only way to make sure is to find an odeon catalogue from that time period so we can make sure.

  • correction to your info: he was born in mosul in 1853. he bcame blind because of smallpox. traveled to baghdad in the 1870s then to syria and egypt and stayed many years in istanbul between 1905 and 1912 as recitor for the ottoman court and he taught many turkish singers the iraqi gazel and maqam style of mosul. he has at least 2 records with tanburi cemil. he was blind and played qanun, ney, tabla and daf. his teachers were iraqis from baghdad, im sure u r mixing him up with another osman.

  • The Singer Is Hafiz Sasi Osman Efendi

    but the pictures is of Musullu Hafiz osman Efendi, he was blind

    he played Kanun

  • @friendsofmehdi

    They are the same person. I have three cylinder recordings of him in Arabic recorded in Iraq (1895-1905) and it is the same voice and style. Ask people who know about it and please don't troll my videos and type stuff without research. There is another Hafiz Osman but he was younger than Mulla Uthman and had a much different voice.

  • @IraqiMaqam

    In the book "Hos Sadâ" witch means Beatiful Sound" of Ibnul Emin Mahmoud Kemal Bey (1870-1957), the book is about biograpy's of musicians, composers since 1750 until 1918, there you can read the life of Uthman Al Musili, he was born in 1840, he was getting blind because of his foster mother, his theachers was zekai Dede, Bolahenk Nuri Bey and the Mawlawi sheikh of the Bahariye zawiye Houssein Fahraddin Dede, you can see at the picture Osman wearing a Mawlawi Turban;)

  • @friendsofmehdi

    Thanks for your information. Where can I find this book you mention? I have several books and articles in Arabic about his life. My information is directly from students of students of Mulla Uthman who are still alive in Iraq. He composed many famous Iraqi and Turkish songs. Some of his melodies from religioius muwashah are still being played as "folk songs" and "Turkish songs" in Balkan countries and some compositions are now attributed to others (such as sayid darwish).

see all

    they are the same person, i am almost sure, their is a radio broadcast show in Iraq, that speaking about him and giving the Isfahan Ghazel in the end, says also that he recorded with Tanburi Cemil Bey, all of the records mention "Sasi".........

  • Ibnul Emin Mahmoud Kemal bey says in his book: "...Musili, had his personal Kanun style, he had beautiful dua and Hutbah improvusations, in Çemberlitas (istanbul) he had a bookshop, there he had meetings with musicians. in Incir Köyü we had once a week meetings, there we eat and do music conversations and play music, Musilli osman participated with his Kanun, onetime he was late, everybody had 'Pisi" fish on his plate, but wen he come it was finish, Osman got another fish, a "Uskumru",

  • my brother

    this is a very wrong information and a big mistake in the name of the Gazelhan Haffiz Sasi Osman Efendi, in many internetsites comes his name over as "Uthman al Musili (Musullu Hafiz Sasi Osman Efendi)".. first of all Musullu and Sasi are different persons, like i say before, the gazels, Ussak, Isfahan, Acem Kizi, belongs to Hafiz Sasi Osman Efendi, Not Mussullu Hafiz Osman, Sasi is diffirent, Musili is Diffirent, Sasi is famious with that gazel, and Musilli has another background

  • @IraqiMaqam

    my friend

    first you can hear how the accent is, its a pure clearly Istanbul-accent, he sing it in Turkish its a "Gazel" what we call

    and second, these record are from the albums of the great Musician Tanburi Cemil Bey

    if you read his life, you can see that Cemil Bey also had worked with hafiz Sasi Osman efendi, Sasi means Squint-eyed, you can see the name of Sasi Osman efendi at the musiclist, Acem Kizi, Isfahan Gazel, Ussak Gazel, Cifte Telli, is of Sasi Osman Efendi
