Having subordinated the banks of the Mankishlak, Seyhun and Jeyhun and the foot of Mount Köpet, Oguz Han returned to his homeland. On his return he invited all his sons and grandchildren for a large banquet. Oguz Han gave gold, silver, and precious fabrics as gifts. Then he said:

“Oh my sons, I am now old. Death is approaching for me. Listen carefully to my advice! See my advice as wise words on the way of truth and live your life in accordance with my advice. Pass my advice on to your children and your tribe! And may they also follow my advice forever! May they also pass my advice on to all their descendants. If your tribesmen conform to my advice, forever and ever, you will be the masters of the world; no enemy will be able to overcome you! Follow my advice, and you will not change your religion. Obey my advice, and you will be prosperous in this life and in the next. If they do not keep their word and do not follow my advice and orders, they will certainly fall out with each other. Each tribe will find itself in a different climate, a different region.
