Klasik ve Modern Dönem Hadis Fetva Kitaplarının Muhtevalarına Yönelik Bir Mukayese
A Comparison of the Contents of Classical and Modern Books of Fatawa Al-Hadithiyyah

Summary/Abstract: In this paper, I analyse the issue of “hadith fatwas” (al-fatawa alhadithiyyah), which has not studied enough in academic ground. The literature of hadith fatwas is consisted of the questions asked by all Muslims, whether they have academic interest in Hadith or not, to the scholars and the answers given by the scholars. The most famous samples of this literature, which dates back to 3rd century AH, were written in the 9th and 10th century AH. One of the most distinguishing features of this genre is that it addresses all Muslims. Various modern works can be included in this literature, which are similar to hadith fatwas in terms of the form and the audience addressed by them. However, the works of the pre-modern and modern eras differ in the sense of the questions and the answers. In order to introduce this genre and compare between its samples in two different eras, I examine the works of as-Sahawi, as-Suyuti, Ahmet Yücel and Yavuz Köktaş. In this study, I focus on writers’ wording and method, sources and content of subjects of fatwas.
