Allah dostlarının sıra dışı hayatları, olağanüstü hallerinin anlatıldığı eserlere menâkıbnâme denir. Hadîs kitaplarındaki sahabe fazîletlerinin anlatıldığı Kitâbü'l-Menâkıb bölümleri bu türün ilk örnekleri olarak kabul edilmiştir. Türklerin İslâmiyet'e girmesi ve tasavvufun Türklerin arasında hızla yayılmasıyla Türk İslâm edebiyatı sahasında menâkıbnâme türü içinde değerlendirilebilecek birçok eser te'lif edilmiştir. XIX. yüzyılın ikinci yarısı ile XX. yüzyılın ilk çeyreğinde yaşayan Süleyman Giryânî, manzûm menâkıbnâme alanında eser veren divan edebiyatının son dönem şairlerinden biri olarak değerlendirilebilir. Şairin "Eimme-i İsnâ Aşer Menâkıb Hâllerinden Bir Şemme Beyân Olunur" başlığını taşıyan bu eserinde On İki İmam'ın isim, lakap ve unvanları; anne-baba adları; kerâmetleri, nerede, nasıl yaşadıkları; kaç yaşında, kim tarafından şehit edildikleri ve na'şlarının bulunduğu mekânlar anlatılmıştır. Eimme-i İsnâ Aşer Menâkıbnâmesi'nde coşkun bir Hz. Ali muhabbeti tablosu çizilmiştir. Metinde Âl-i Muhammed muhabbeti hakkındaki âyet-i kerîmeler ve hadîs-i şerîflerin ağırlıkta olduğu görülmüştür. Bu çalışmada öncelikle bir edebî tür olarak menâkıbnâmelerin kaynağı, bu sahada ortaya konulan eserler ile manzûm On İki İmam menkabeleri hakkında genel bir bilgi verilmiştir. Ardından Giryânî'nin hayatı ve edebî yönü üzerinde durularak müellif tanıtılmıştır. Eimme-i İsnâ Aşer Menâkıbnâme'sinin muhtevâ özellikleri sadedinde ana hatlarıyla On İki İmam manzûmeleri mensur olarak özetlenmiş, âyet ve hadîslerin tasbiti yapılarak kaynaklarına ulaşılmaya çalışılmıştır. Tek nüsha halinde tasbit edilen yazmanın şekil husûsiyyetleri hakkında bir değerlendirme yapılmıştır. Son olarak Menâkıbnâme'nin tertip ve vezin özellikleri incelenmiş; metnin büyük bir bölümü transkripsiyonlu haliyle verilmiştir.
