Özet: A search in the archives and rare collections of National Library, Tehran, intended primarily to find the Arabic polemics against Yezidi religion, has resulted in the discovery of another source of information on the Gūrānī literature. So far as can be discovered, this has never previously appeared in print. It contains of some Persian codices, entitled, jung in which there are unpublished material of Gūrānī literature. Most of the Persian material given in the jungs were considered by Library’s staff. However, they chose not to give details on Gūrānī fragments, and the fact that this material exists has largely been ignored by scholars up to the present day. This paper gives a presentation of this Gūrānī unpublished material, making it widely available for the first time.
