  • Magosa Kutup Osman Efendi Türbe Ve Dergâhının İnşa Ve İhyası Mustafa Eyyamoğlu* – Nuran Kara Pilehvarian**
    Kıbrıs Celvetiliğinde Unutulmuş Bir Mirasın Yeniden Hatırlanışı: Magosa Kutup Osman Efendi Türbe ve Dergâhının İnşa ve İhyası Mustafa Eyyamoğlu* – Nuran Kara Pilehvarian** Reminiscence of a Forgotten Inheritage in Celvetiyye of Cyprus: The Building and Revival of the Mausoleum and Dervish Lodge of Kutup Osman Efendi in Magosa Abstract This article about the Kutup Osman Efendi Dervish Lodge, located out- side of the walls of Famagusta in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, focuses on the changes the lodge went through especially before the nineteenth century based on the archival documents, engravings, maps and the recent literature. At- pazari Osman Fazlı Efendi (1632-1691), who was among the most salient figures of Celvetiye brotherhood and who dispatched around 150 disciples, including the renowned İsmail Hakkı Bursevi, to various parts of the Ottoman Empire, ended up being exiled to Famagusta where he deceased in 1691 because of his significant degree of intervention in politics in Istanbul. The tomb of this significant figure, who was buried in the outskirts of the Ottoman Graveyard located outside of the walls of the Famagusta, was eventually lost. Seyyid Mehmet Aga, also a member of the Celvetiye brotherhood and a head royal door-keeper, who was appointed to Cyprus as a tax officer (muhassil), found his tomb and built a mausoleum for him. Even though this mausoleum is mentioned in the endowment deeds, there is no mention of the masjid built next to it. Similarly, the fact that there was a dervish lodge in that location pre- viously goes unnoticed. This article examines the mausoleum and the construction around it, the historical evolution of the area since the conquest of Cyprus, and it analyzes centuries-long archeological/cultural layers while observing the transforma- tion of this previously Christian site into an Islamic one.

The Sufi As The Axis Of The orld:W Representations Of Religious Authority In The Works Of Ismail Hakki Bursevi (1653-1725) Abstract The present study examines the ways in which Ismail Hakki Bursevi (1653-1725) d(re)defines and deploys Islamic discursive practices and institutions to assert his religious authority as the most influential Sufi master in the Celveti order after its founder. Through a literary analysis of Bursevi’s autobiographical notes and dedicatory treatises (tuhfe) to Ottoman officials, I examine how he uses the institutions of the Sufi master (shaykh), order (tarīqa), and the Celestial Axis (quṭb) to argue for his superior status vis-�-vis other members of the Ottoman religious and learned elite. I speculate argue that the particulars of Hakki’s self-representation can be viewed as early indications of institutional anxiety and contested leadership within the Celveti Sufi order, which split into subbranches in the latter part of the eighteenth century.

Doktrinde yeri olmamasına rağmen, İslam geleneğinde dinî bir zümre gelişmiş, bu zümre hem toplum hem de kendileri tarafından dinin temsilcisi olarak algılanmışlar, ancak güç olarak her zaman siyasi erkin gerisinde kalmışlardır. Bu durumda do- laylı yollardan bir nüfuz elde etme mücadelesine girişmişlerdir.

This class are perceived by society and themselves as representatives of Islam, but they were left behind as the power of the political class. In this case, they tried to gain influence through indirect ways. The article seeks to demonstrate the power struggle over the religious and political language using discourse analysis method.

  • Endülüs Ve Kuzey Afrika'nin Anadolu Tasavvufundaki Yeri*
    YAKIN Doğu ÜnİversİTesİ İslam TeTkİklerİ merkezİ Dergİsİ, Yıl 3, Cilt 3, Sayı 1, Bahar 2017 (61-86) EndülÜs VE KuzeY AfrİKA’nin AnaDolu TasavvufunDakİ YERİ* Ömer BOZKURT** Özet Bu çalışmada Endülüs ve Kuzey Afrika coğrafyasının sahip oldu- ğu tasavvufî birikiminin yapısı, oluşturucuları, kaynakları, içeriği ve niteliğini ortaya koyduktan sonra, İbn Arabî’nin bu birikime katkılarına değindik. Daha sonra, ortaya çıkan bu birikimin İbn Arabî tarafından Anadolu’ya nasıl taşındığını vurguladık. İbn Ara- bî’nin Endülüs ve Kuzey Afrika tasavvufunun Anadolu’daki yeri ve önemi için sembol bir isim olduğu aşikârdır. Zira onun Anado- lu’ya gelişinin ardından bu coğrafyanın düşünürleri onun eser- lerini çevirmiş, şerh etmiş, yorumlamış, değerlendirmiş ve yeni eserler ortaya koymuştur. Günümüze kadar devam eden bu du- rum, Endülüs ve Kuzey Afrika tasavvufunun Anadolu tasavvufu üzerindeki etkisini göstermektedir. Bu çalışmada sözü edilen bu konularla ilgili bir takım tespitler sunulmuş ve şahsiyetlerden ör- nekler de verilmiştir. Anahtar Sözcükler: Tasavvuf, Endülüs, Kuzey Afrika, İbn Arabî, Sadreddin Konevî The Place of Andalusia and North Africa on The Sufism Of Anatolia Abstract In this study, after presenting the structure, agents, resources, contents and characteristics of the sufistic accumulation of the geography of Andalusia and North Africa, we touched on Ibn Arabî’s contributions to this accumulation. Next, we emphasized how this accumulation was transported to Anatolia by Ibn Arabî. It is obvious that Ibn Arabî is the symbol for the influence of An- dalusia and North Africa on the Sufism of Anatolia.
