On the other hand we know that there is a document type called Ikhvaniyat in the the Munsheat Journals of Great Seljuks Empire Period. For the fact that these documents have private content, they can open a new perspective for the historian. Because İkhvaniyat documents reveal the mentality and the sense of that age. They contain personal opinions and they make references to the ideas which were considered sin or negative.In this study two contemporary Munshis’ Rashid Al Din Watwat, Atabeg al- Juvayni ikhvaniyat samples were examined
