Summary/Abstract: Sects, even if criticised, are a part of the history of Islamic thought. It is a historical fact that some events that are difficult to confirm have occurred among the followers of these formations. However, it is also an undeniable fact that the aforementioned organizations contributed greatly to the formation of the Islamic thought. Because each difference has given rise to new theses and each thesis has caused the development of related anti-theses. This intellectual mobility has crowned Islamic thought with a cultural richness that has not been bestowed on any other civilization. Khâridjites are the first occurrence in the history of Islamic thought related to the subject matter. In the historical process, the Khâridjites were first divided into groups within themselves and only the Ibâdites of these groups have survived to the present day. From the very beginning of their formation period, Khâridjites have become more famous for sword-shield than being famous for an intellectual literature. This tendency also prevented them from devoting enough time to scientific activities. That’s why, the Khâridjite literature which has been formed in the historical process is extremely scarce compared to the other sects. However, this does not mean that there are none of their works. In this study, the exegetical literature of the Khâridjite/Ibâdite schools, from past till today, is examined.
