Abstract :The Mongol invasion can be considered as one of the most interesting events in generalWorld history, particularly in Islamic history. As a result of it, almost all Turkish Muslimsliving in Central Asia had to move to Anatolia, where they had established the OttomanEmpire. The relation of Mongols with the Ottoman Turks had been based on the enmity.However, in the years before the World War I, due to the spread of the West currentsamong the Ottoman intelligentsia, there appeared some studies dealing with therelationship between the Turks and the Mongols, and the resemblance of these twonations in linguistics and cultural area. Some Muslim historians, disappointed from mostof these studies, and in turn they also published some articles about this matter. Taheer al-Mawlawi, in particular, issued a series of article entitled as "to the Muslim soldier”. Inthese articles, he gathered most of the accounts that had been recorded by Muslimhistorians, and he also cited the Mongol cruelty and collected them under the title "Cengizve Hülagû Mezalimi” (The cruelties of Genghis and Hulagu), [1906, Istanbul]. His work isregarded as a good concise work on Mongol invasion, in particular against the IslamicWorld.
