Abdullah Çakmak The city of Jerusalem, which is considered sacred by Muslims, Christians and Jews, dates back to BC. It has an ancient history dating back to the 4000s. The dominance of states belonging to these religions in Jerusalem for different periods paved the way for the formation of holy places belonging to three religions in the city.
Various zoning activities carried out by the state in Jerusalem, which came under Ottoman rule in 1517, increased the quality of life of the city. One of the breaking points for Jerusalem in this period of domination that lasted until 1917 was the process that started with the French occupation of Egypt in 1798 and continued until the end of the Kavalalı Mehmed Ali Pasha rebellion in 1841. The emergence of the troubles in different parts of the state, such as the Wahhabi and Greek rebellions, in this time period, caused Jerusalem to be indirectly affected by these events, since it hosted different nations together.
In this study, which deals with the policy of the Ottoman Empire in Jerusalem between 1798-1841, the political events and administrative changes, the prominent activities in the approach of the state to Muslims, the rights granted by the state to non-Muslims and the ways of communication of the people with the state are examined.

Batuhan Buğra Akartepe In the commercial relations that human beings have entered, they can pay the price of the products they buy in cash, or they can pay them in deferred payment by way of borrowing. Today, the majority of commercial relations are made by borrowing method and the maturity of the debts in question is long, causing the person or institutions in the position of creditors to have cash problems. The creditor party sells the receivables in question, which we expect to be collected from the debtor, in order to meet his cash needs and to eliminate the loss in the best way possible due to the debtors' insolvency. The book evaluates this practice, which has become widespread because it is a current issue that concerns the majority of the society, in terms of Islamic law. The amount of debt in the economies has increased as a result of the fact that commercial dyestuffs are not based on cash payments and are carried out mostly by borrowing. Due to the effects of economic crises and other factors, difficulties were experienced in repayment of debts and the loss of the creditor came to the fore. Various methods have been used to eliminate this damage. One of the theories operating in this context is the asset management companies that come to the forefront with their assignment of receivables. The purpose of this book, which deals with the assignment of receivables practices performed by asset management companies, is to determine the principles and provisions of Islamic law that are revealed from the subject of assignment of receivables, to analyze the activities of asset management companies in the field of application, and finally to evaluate the current practice according to the principles of Islamic law.

Yusuf Dinç Growth is the most basic phenomenon that we encounter in all areas of life in the capitalist model. Because the model based on supply has indexed its sustainability to growth. In order to spread and sustain the capitalist codes of the system, societies are also organized with the motivation of growth and with rational or irrational codes according to the period. But this ideal, which the masses and societies are dragged after, is a cheap fiction and illusion. Because capitalism is a model of withholding. Growth is only the growth of the capitalist, and its benefits are denied to others. The treatise of utility reconsiders the theory of utility from the perspective of Islamic economics with its concrete (material) and intangible (spiritual) aspects. On the basis of production-consumption indivisibility, the author proposes a solution to the problem of the distribution of the produced income of capitalism with the principle of effort. The work, Hâce Yûsuf b. With the imagination that Ayyub al-Hamedânf placed on the theory of Rötbetü'l Hayat, he explains the economic structure of the utility dimensions ignored by capitalism with mathematical relations. While discussing the philosophical background that feeds the utility theory in the work, the details of the common set of fitra are examined. At the same time, while the financial intermediation paradigm is being questioned, determinations on the collective role of Islamic economic institutions are included.
Yunus Kutval, Özgür Kanbir In this book, which is the seventh book in the Pocket Books series, which covers the basic institutions and issues of Islamic economics, the subject of environment and ecology has been tried to be explained in a content that can be easily understood by people of all levels, rather than a theoretical depth. Today, capitalism is largely abstracted from moral values. It sees the damages as human, global warming and environmental disasters. Islamic economics, which is shaped within the framework of the principles of the religion of Islam, rises as an alternative to these corrupt production relations based on exploiting human and nature. According to the religion of Islam, the vicegerent of Allah on earth is man. According to the human model defined by Islamic economics, which is shaped within the framework of Islamic principles, nature should be seen as a trust from the creator, all living and non-living beings should be respected, and economic activities with ethical values ​​should be carried out, not production-consumption oriented. In this sense, the book approaches the subject of ecology and environment from the perspective of Islamic economics and offers solutions on the subject.
Melek Yıldız Güneş The educational institution Darülfünun, which was established as the university leg of the innovation movement in the last period of the Ottoman Empire, is an indicator of many things in the name of innovations and transformations made in the educational sense with the effect of the periodic break. In this sense, the moral lessons taught in Darülfünun also took their share from the transformation and breaking character of the period. In the book, the teachers who teach the moral courses, the syllabus and the works taught in the course constitute the subject of the research in an inseparable integrity. The follow-up of these elements shows the importance given to moral education at the university level at that time, the educational background of the teachers and the intellectual effects they have, as well as the moral understanding they defended with the moral studies they brought into being.
This book; By revealing how the innovations and regulations made in Darülfünun affect the existence of moral courses, how often they can be included in the curriculum, who the teachers who teach the ethics courses are, what education and intellectual inclination they have, what the works of these teachers about morality are, what effects they have, In addition to being a research that seeks answers to questions such as whether the change and transformation observed in moral courses can be extended to Darülfünun in general, it also reveals the transformation of moral understanding that emerged in the process in Darülfünun.
İsa Yılmaz In this work, which is the fifth book of the Pocket Books series, which covers the basic institutions and issues of Islamic economics, the subject of value is tried to be explained in a content that can be understood by people of all levels, together with its theoretical and practical dimensions. In today's world, an economic understanding that we call capitalism, which has become global, seems to be universal and without alternatives, is dominant. Therefore, as people born into the modern world, we establish our economic relations within the limits set for us by capitalist production, consumption and distribution techniques. We think that we have no alternative but to speak the language of the dominant economic understanding and produce practice. We can attribute a suprahistorical role to these concepts by ignoring that the settlement of some concepts in the society in this created language has a historical process and context and that they continue to undergo a continuous change and transformation of meaning. This attitude makes us passive in economic relations and ties our hands in the construction of alternative economic systems. This work is part of the Pocket Books series based on the reinterpretation of basic concepts in economics. With this study, which deals with the concept of value, one of the most important concepts of economics, the meaning of a "value-free" economic thought based on unquestioning acceptance for many of us, the effect of this thought on our daily relations and the construction of a value-laden economic system beyond the current economic understanding. starting points are discussed.
Zeyneb Hafsa Orhan Islamic economy/economics, which emerged as a concept in the 1930s, started to develop theoretically after the 1970s and became an academic field of study. This work presents the positions of the basic micro and macro issues of economics in this new field of study, both theoretically and
It is intended to demonstrate in practical terms. In this context, subjects such as methodology, political economy systems, state-market relations, fiscal and monetary policy, consumer and producer analysis, institutions are included. This book, which is structured to be used as an introductory one-semester course book in Islamic economics in terms of subject progression and segmentation, is also preferable for anyone interested in the subject because it does not have a heavy academic language. With the hope that it will contribute to the field as an original work written in Turkish, as well as related translation works published by İktisat Publishing until today...
Muhittin Kaplan In this book, which is the eighth book in the Pocket Books series, which covers the basic institutions and issues of Islamic economics, the subject of utility is tried to be explained in a content that can be easily understood by people of all levels, rather than a theoretical depth. The book examines the meaning, role and importance of the concept of utility in modern economics and Islamic economic theory, taking into account the evolution of the concept over time. Accordingly, the book is organized into four parts. In the first part; The approach in which utility is defined as the ability of goods to meet human needs is discussed. In the second part; The approach in which benefit is defined as the satisfaction, pleasure and happiness obtained from the consumption of goods and services, that is, the "cardinal approach to benefit" has been examined. In the third part; The modern approach to the concept of utility, the "ordinate to utility" approach, in which utility is included in the analysis as a way to rank consumer preferences, is explained. In the fourth chapter, the framework of the concept of utility in Islamic economics is drawn and its differences from mainstream economics are explained.
Mehmet Saraç While the theoretical questioning of finance, which is a relatively young specific field among the sciences, is actually being questioned, the world view and human perception on which neoclassical economics is based, and perhaps beyond that, neoclassical economics is also questioned. While doing this, the source of knowledge, the methodology of science, how the Enlightenment process gave direction to these issues and the future of the concept of scientific knowledge are also included in the discussion to a certain extent.
Today, the most questionable point of conventional economics and the finance discipline derived from this understanding is that the epistemology of the economics and finance understanding and the assumptions on which it is based do not fully grasp the reality of human and existence. For this reason, post-modern humanity struggles with crises, cannot establish a sustainable economic system and is deprived of a fair distribution of wealth. This book deals with the debates, critical views, new trends and new paradigm searches, which have become more evident especially after the crises, regarding the theory of finance as a scientific field of study and the global financial system in terms of practice.
Mustafa Fayda, Mustafa Sabri Küçükaşçı, Azmi Özcan, Casim Avcı, Mehmet Özdemir, Hasan Hüseyin Adalıoğlu, Ali Satan, Uğur Demir, Abdulkadir Macit The caliphate, one of the most important institutions in the history of Islam, is among the critical concepts of the literature of Islamic political thought. The way the concept takes place in Islamic sources and its forms that have been the subject of theological and political thought have responded to the states' search for sovereignty and authority since the first periods of Islamic history.
This book, which includes 9 articles, puts forward the issues such as what kind of process the caliphate followed in the pre-modern period and what functions it fulfilled, and what discussions took place about it. It aims to benefit from the past experience in the determination and criticism of current issues.
It is hoped that this study/work, which contains the papers of the workshop held on the occasion of the 500th anniversary of the succession of the Caliphate to the Turks, will be instrumental in many more new/original researches and will serve to commemorate and understand this great historical heritage correctly.
Ahmet Dağ, Ayhan Çitil, Esra Kartal Soysal, İbrahim Bahçi, İbrahim Halil Üçer, İhsan Fazlıoğlu, Kamuran Gökdağ, Kasım Küçükalp, Latif Karagöz, Ömer Türker, Rıdvan Şentürk, Tahsin Görgün Today, we see that an approach that set out to give a complete and precise explanation of reality gradually loses its power to explain reality and abolish reality itself. The reason why C0VID-19 pushes us to rethink reality, human, god and society as much as other epidemics, but more powerfully than them, is that the understanding that established the modern world has turned reality into a superstition on its way to show reality free from superstitions. It is precisely in this situation that we need to re-remember the reality that we have exchanged for a virtual image and learn from the consequences of this bad trade. This book, which invites us to direct our thinking holistically to reality, to the principles that establish it, and to man's relationship with these principles, says that just such an orientation is a good start for the lessons to be learned.
Hakan Ertürk, Ceyda Kükrer Mutlu, Emre Selçuk Sarı, M. Halil Çonkar, Hamdi Döndüren, Ali Togay, Murat Çizakça There have been people who are creative and have new ideas throughout history. These ideas led to the development of alternative models outside of the ongoing economic habits and opened the door to innovations.
Today, many innovations, especially in the field of technology, emerge as a result of the maturation of such ideas. Venture/venture capital is an important financial instrument in this respect, which refers to being a partner in these initiatives in order to meet the funding needs of individuals and companies with new ideas. It is an important feature of this partnership that one party takes the risk and aims to earn long-term returns by putting forth the capital of the other party and the creative thinking of the other party. In this respect, venture capital is an alternative model different from classical financing models. The profit-loss-based partnership structure in venture capital is suitable for the objectives that Islamic Economics wants to achieve. For this reason, it is an important investment tool that public and private institutions, universities and companies can apply, especially participation banks. This book in your hand examines the history, current situation, legal structure, economic opportunities, tax and accounting dimensions of venture capital. In this respect, it aims to fill an important gap in this issue, which has been neglected in terms of both theory and practice.

This shows that technology has permeated every aspect of life.
As a result of the rapid increase in the use of technology, individuals, business world and government institutions store or transfer their critical intelligence, economic and personal information through these technology tools. It is becoming more and more impossible for people to participate or contribute to business life without smartphone technologies. Social media applications have now become a very important information strategy product within the scope of cheap, flexible, effortless and crypto features. However, with the development of technology, security concerns have emerged in information systems depending on globalization. From the theft of personal data to the use of the Internet and social media as a propaganda tool by terrorist organizations, negative aspects that affect individuals and states have emerged.
In this book, different topics such as cyber security, social media, nuclear and military technology, terrorism and technology relationship, artificial intelligence technologies, urban security and technology, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) technologies, border security and technology are discussed and basically the relationship between technology and security. In this context, how technological progress will change security paradigms in the future and how it will affect individuals and states has been revealed.
Yusuf İzzettin Aktaş Although the nomenclature of Islamic Philosophy has an ancient history in terms of meaning, it is a fairly new composition as a name. In the first quarter of the 20th century, Islamic philosophy courses, which found a place in the curriculum as a result of the reforms in the field of education, which was an important pillar of the Ottoman modernization attempts, appear as an important area where this composition was transferred to the field of existence. In a time when Western values ​​and thoughts make their presence felt, and sometimes domination, in the Islamic world, with which arguments Muslim Turkish intellectuals and scientists re-presented and defended their world of thought, how they meet and understand the criticisms and accusations against their realm of existence, and how they are trying to attract and/or dispose of; How they define the history of Islamic philosophy/thought within the current conditions and conditions remains among the intriguing questions.
This study in your hand II. It examines the formation process of philosophy and Islamic philosophy courses in Darülfünun and madrasah, which started to be included in the curriculum with the reform movements that took place in the field of education after the Constitutional Monarchy, and the teachers of these courses, the texts taught in Islamic philosophy courses, and sheds some light on our modernization history.
Lütfi Sunar, Büşra Bulut There are two basic dynamics of shaping contemporary thought in Muslim societies. The first of these is related to internal developments and the other to external conditions. Including? as intellectuals and ulama; They encountered issues such as the meaning and maintenance of tradition, the structure and change of Muslim identity, interpretation of new social problems and producing solutions, and making sense of political developments. In this framework, the main agenda has been formed within the framework of the problematic of Islamic renewal, and the second dynamic is external factors. In this respect, the confrontation with modern technology, industry and bureaucracy in the 19th century caused Muslim societies to go into a serious crisis. While this crisis caused Muslim societies to not be able to maintain their own intellectual lives, the need to respond and overcome it also gave a new form to thought. This communication with the outside has created various intermediate forms by interacting with Islamic concepts and thoughts.
Discussing the basic elements and limits of Islamic thought and examining its counterpart in the contemporary world has become a necessary ground. These discussions are possible by understanding the explanation of the basic concepts of Islamism, its use and transformation throughout history. Since the second half of the 19th century, the concepts of revival, reform, and reform have come to the fore as an offer against the problems that Muslim peoples are dealing with. These are concepts that have a deep-rooted history in the tradition of Islamic thought and politics, although they have been transformed in modern discourse and used in some places before the other.
The workshops, which were held within the scope of the Islamist Journals Project, with the banner of Basic Issues and Concepts, aim to add new dimensions to the rooted discussions of Islamist thought. As a product of this effort, this book is an enhanced version of the presentations made by Mehmet Ali Büyükkara, Özgür Kavak and Murat Kayacan at the "Improvement" workshop held on November 23, 2019. This book is an in-depth analysis of the issues and approaches on which Islamist thought is built. serial offer.
Eşref Altaş, Fatma Turğay, Hacı Bayram Başer, Hatice Umut, Hülya Alper, İbrahim Halil Üçer, Mehmet Zahit Tiryaki, Murat Kaş, Ömer Türker. Şaban Haklı, Sümeyye Parıldar, Tuba Erkoç Baydar, Yunus Cengiz. Ziya Erdinç From the moment we were convinced that man was born without a given meaning and was defined by the functions or roles he was assigned from the moment he opened his eyes, it became increasingly difficult to expect anything from man. Moreover, such expectations were always confronted with demands for freedom. This book is "What can we expect from a free man?" It grew out of a strong belief that the question can still be asked in a meaningful way. The different conceptions of man in the Islamic tradition of thought, despite all their differences, are optimistic about our expectations of man. However, how this expectation can be grounded. He found different answers within the philosophical, theological, mystical and jurisprudential perspectives in the tradition of Islamic thought.

The study, which includes fourteen articles, investigates the answers given by different disciplines in the tradition of Islamic thought and the different schools within these disciplines to the question of what a human is and what is really expected of him. For these perspectives, which all consider human life as a long story that progresses in a constant test, human is always something that is "being". The main factors that direct our ability to "be", where this ability should lead, and the areas of accrual constitute important topics in the evaluations of what a human being is. The articles in this study proceed through these questions, while investigating the nature of human beings in the traditions of philosophy, theology, mysticism and fiqh, on the other hand, they deepen the current possibilities of these perspectives.
Adem Levent, Ahmet Karakaya, Esra Kartal Soysal, Hakan Ertin, Kasım Kücükalp, Latif Karagöz, Lütfi Sunar, Metin Özdemir, Mevlüt Göl, Olkan Senemoğlu, Şaban Ali Düzgün The conceptions of the nature of man, the ethics of human actions throughout history. determined his political and metaphysical orientations. Therefore, it can be said that many emerging structures, from moral choices to social organizations, from state orders to education systems, are a direct or indirect manifestation of the answer to the question of what human is. For this reason, the question of what man is is central to any conception of the world. modernity. By radically transforming the classical conceptions of the nature of man, he revealed one of the most important breaks in human history. It is therefore a way of achieving a correct understanding of the modern period. It is through identifying and analyzing the transformations of human imagination in this period.
In this book, the debates about the nature of human being in modern Western thought are discussed and the effects of different definitions of human in these fields on the formation and transformation of various scientific disciplines are evaluated. In addition, the book also includes various debates in contemporary Islamic thought, providing an answer to the question of how the transformations that emerged with modernity affect human conceptions in the Islamic world. In this way, readers will have the opportunity to follow the simultaneous and simultaneous effects of the radically changing universe and human imagination.
Cahid Şenel, Eşref Altaş, Hacı Bayram Başer, Harun Kuşlu, Hümeyra Özturan, İdris Cevahir, İzzet Gülaçar, Müstakim Arıcı, Osman Demir Ethics is a field that has been widely discussed in Islamic thought, from practical philosophy to various religious sciences. In this respect, while morality is accepted as one of the philosophical sciences, it is also discussed with different aspects in religious sciences such as hadith, kalam, fiqh and mysticism. In order to examine and present morality, which is at the intersection of multiple disciplines, with all its dimensions, these sciences should be considered in terms of their own internal dynamics. Such an effort seems essential for understanding the morality in Islamic thought with all its dimensions.
In line with this need, roundtable meetings titled "Basic Characteristics of Islamic Moral Literature" were held between March 2013 and March 201A within the scope of the "Islamic Moral Thought Project" carried out by the Scientific Studies Association (ILEM) and the Science Culture and Education Association (ILKE), and the literature on morality has its own discussed in terms of their specifics. This book in your hand consists of the articles of the presentations made at these meetings.
Harun Kuşlu, İbrahim Aksu, İbrahim Halil Üçer, Kübra Bilgin Tiryaki, Metin Aydın, M. Zahit Tiryaki, Sümeyye Parıldar, Yunus Cengiz The debate about whether the biological and hereditary characteristics inherited in the formation and differentiation of personality, which can be expressed as human nature in the most general sense, or whether the diversity of experiences are of fundamental importance, points to a problem that can be traced back to the early periods of philosophy and continues to exist with the same vitality today. The theories of temperament, as a way of explaining human nature, are related to physics and medicine, while their results are directly related to human actions and being in this world.
The book in your hand is an expanded output of the roundtable meetings held in 2015 on the theories of temperament in Islamic thought within the scope of the Islamic Moral Thought Project. Articles in the book; It focuses on the temperament theory, which has a very central place in the understanding of human personality and character, after Hippocrates (375 BC) and Galen (d. 200), and more specifically, the appearance of the problem in some Islamic philosophers and theologians. The book aims to be a start for readers who want to deal with the subject and to contribute to new reading, understanding and interpretation processes that will be made in comparison with the new aspects of the problem.
Hatice Toksöz This study, which is an attempt to analyze the etymology of the concept of love (al-mehabbe), aims to reveal the expansions of the concept of love in Islamic thought regarding its metaphysical, physical, moral and political dimensions.
In the study, by pointing out the difference in nature of the love of Allah and the love of the creatures, the problems that Islamic thinkers discussed around the concept of love were included, thus providing the opportunity to compare the writings of Islamic philosophers, theologians and mystics about love.
This work, which reveals the analysis of the concept of love in the light of the texts written on Islamic thought, aims to inform its readers that love is an indispensable trait for the individual to gain moral competence and to establish social cohesion perfectly.
Ömer Faruk Tekdoğan The partial reserve system, which we can call the basis of modern finance, has been the subject of discussion from past to present due to its weak structure, the role it played in economic instability and the problems it created. This interest-based system, which ensures that most of the money supply is dematerialized, has led to a macro-ribâ system that envelops economic life. The full reserve system, which was developed as an alternative to this system, could not find its place in practice. From the point of view of Islamic economics, the fact that the current system is riba-oriented and causes an unfair distribution of resources has necessitated the evaluation of the alternatives put forward from this perspective. The fractional reserve system operates based on confidence that commercial banks and central banks will provide sufficient liquidity when needed, and thus in essence it is prone to financial crises.
is weak and fragile. From this perspective in the book, the problems that are claimed to arise in economies with the discovery of fractional reserve banking are examined, the applicability of full reserve banking and how sufficient it is for a solution are examined, and the suitability and drawbacks of both systems in terms of Islamic economics are discussed.

Adem Esen This work examines the concepts of property, property and market, which are the main subjects of economics, from the perspectives of both Islamic and conventional economics. Goods are the basis of economic life, because goods are the name of the means that meet the needs of people. Man has material and intangible needs. A person pursues them all his life. If his material needs are met, he will be prosperous, and if his intangible needs are met, he will attain happiness. People try to acquire property from the moment they know themselves. The name of owning and owning a property is called property. Property entitles people to that property and provides the right to dispose and use it. This is also called "possession". Normally, people buy the goods by giving their money. The sale process is also done in the bazaar, in the market. The word market, which comes from Italian, is used in the sense of market. The movable goods are both displayed and sold in the bazaars, shops, week markets, stock exchanges, formerly fairs and now fairs. Real estates are bought and sold in the land registry offices of the state.

Muhammed Hüseyin Mercan Studies on Islamic movements, or more specifically the Muslim Brotherhood, have often focused on ideological foundations or tensions with the political regime. Although there are a limited number of analyzes on the organizational structure of the movements, the way they are organized, the method of education and ideological indoctrination in these studies, the factor of institutionalization has always been left out of consideration in these analyses. The most important reason underlying this is that Islamic movements are not accepted as political institutions. Considering that political institutions are structures that attribute value and identity to their members, Islamic movements should be accepted as political institutions and their institutionalization processes should be taken into account, since they have similar characteristics. In this context, the book in your hand tries to answer the question of how the institutionalization processes of Islamic movements should be analyzed based on the assumption that they are also political institutions. In the book, in the example of the Muslim Brotherhood, which is considered the pioneer of Islamic movements, the institutionalization problem of the Movement is analyzed over six parameters, and the level of institutionalization of the structure is analyzed within the framework of its relationship with the Egyptian regime, in addition to the internal tensions and debates it has experienced since 1928.

Muhammed Emin Durmuş The concept of mukâtaa is used to express practices that have different legal consequences in foundation law, as in Ottoman financial law. In this study, the focus is mainly on the practice of mukataa, which means renting the foundation land to anyone who wants to build a building or plant a tree, with the right of decision and ownership of it. The foundations of the mukâtaa practice date back to before the Ottoman Empire, and the Ottomans further developed this practice, which they inherited, with some arrangements and used it for centuries. However, Ottoman lawyers, who saw that the mukâtaa practice caused the abuse of foundations over time, did not insist on this practice, on the contrary, they developed the more advantageous icâreteyn practice for foundations. This shows that mukataa paved the way for the practice of icareteyn. In this book, the historical background, nature, different practices, conditions, legal principles and rights of the mukataa contract in the 16th and 17th centuries have been tried to be revealed, especially based on fatwa journals and sharia registers.

Lütfi Sunar, Büşra Bulut Recent developments in the world and in Turkey have accelerated the studies on the history of thought and brought these discussions to the center.

What we want to do with this book is not to confirm the information and fact in the printed sources, but to approach the period under study in different ways.
