Figurative Features of the Images of the Planets in the "Khamsa" of Alisher Navoi

Alisher Navoi Traditional ceremonies in each of the "Khamsa" epics are given against the background of seven planets. Why exactly seven planets? Because this number is the most famous of the magical numbers, especially in the East, it is highly revered. While giving information about the origin of this number and its connection with the planets, S. Hasanov explains in connection with the religious beliefs of the Sumerians who lived south of Babylon. In the literature, the interpretation of the Sumerians as the ancestors of the peoples of Central Asia is common. In the "Gilgamesh" epic, which is considered to be an example of the creativity of this people, the harmony of seven as a sacred number is considered as one of the important images.
