The Status of Pious Women in Sunni Islam: a Study on the Public Religious Practices of Women in Ankara THE STATUS OF PIOUS WOMEN IN SUNNI ISLAM: A STUDY ON THE PUBLIC RELIGIOUS PRACTICES OF WOMEN IN ANKARA A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF SOCIAL SCIENCES OF MIDDLE EAST TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY BY FİGEN UZAR ÖZDEMİR IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY JULY 2017 I hereby declare that all information in this document has been obtained and presented in accordance with academic rules and ethical conduct. I also declare that, as required by these rules and conduct, I have fully cited and referenced all material and results that are not original to this work. Name, Last name: Figen UZAR ÖZDEMİR Signature : iii ABSTRACT THE STATUS OF PIOUS WOMEN IN SUNNI ISLAM: A STUDY ON THE PUBLIC RELIGIOUS PRACTICES OF WOMEN IN ANKARA Figen Uzar Özdemir Ph.D., Department of Sociology Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Ayşe Saktanber July 2017, 262 pages The aim of this dissertation is to demonstrate how pious women‘s undertaking of public Islamic practices shapes their social status within the private domains such as their families and neighborhoods and public spaces of the mosque and Quran courses in urban Ankara in contemporary Turkey. I conducted an ethnographic field study in the Quran courses in three districts of Ankara, namely Bahçelievler, Çukurambar and Sincan which are middle, upper middle and lower middle class respectively. This study focuses on the findings of my participant observation within congregational prayers, Quran recitation and ―sohbet‖ sessions of the Directorate of Religious Affairs (DRA) and 26 semi-structured interviews conducted with pious lay women and female preachers. I aim to find out despite their subordinate status within Islamic practices, how pious women enhance their status through their practicing of Islamic rituals. iv The main finding of this study is that a pious woman‘s social status is enhanced by the performance of public Islamic rituals juxtaposed with factors such as religious knowledge, display of emotions during ritual and the negotiation of daily chores with religious duties. This finding reflects both the fact that practicing Islamic rituals grants agency to pious women by enhancing their social status and also the fact that gender and religion work together in maintaining the subordination of women, and control of them by the patriarchal society. Keywords: Sunni-Islamic rituals, social status, agency, pious women, Turkey v ÖZ SÜNNİ İSLAM‘DA DİNDAR KADINLARIN KONUMU: ANKARA‘DA KADINLARIN KAMUSAL DİNİ PRATİKLERİ ÜZERİNE BİR ÇALIŞMA Figen Uzar Özdemir Doktora, Sosyoloji Bölümü Tez Yöneticisi: Prof. Dr. Ayşe Saktanber Temmuz 2017, 262 sayfa Bu tezin amacı günümüz Türkiye‘sinde Ankara kentinde yaşayan dindar kadınların kamusal İslami pratiklerinin aile ve komşuluk gibi özel alanlardaki ve cami ve Kuran kursları gibi kamusal alanlardaki sosyal statülerini nasıl şekillendirdiğini göstermektir. Bu amaçla Ankara‘nın orta sınıf, üst orta sınıf ve alt orta sınıf üç semti olan Bahçelievler, Çukurambar ve Sincan semtlerindeki Kuran kurslarında etnografik bir alan çalışması yaptım. Bu çalışma, Diyanet İşleri Başkanlığı‘nın ―sohbet‖ ve Kuran okuma pratikleri ile cemaat namazları sırasında yaptığım katılımcı gözlemin ve ―sıradan‖ dindar kadınlar ve vaizelerle yaptığım 26 yarı-yapılandırılmış mülakatın bulgularına odaklanmaktadır. Bu tezde İslami pratiklerdeki tabi kılınan konumlarına rağmen, dindar kadınların İslami ritüeller yoluyla aile içinde, komşuları ve arkadaşları arasında statülerini nasıl iyileştirdikleri sorusuna yanıt arıyorum. Bu çalışmanın temel bulgusu, kamusal İslami ritüeller yaparak dindar bir kadının statüsünün iyileşmesinin dini ritüel performans ile dini bilgi, duyguların ritüel esnasında dışavurumu ve günlük işlerin dini görevlerle dengelenmesi gibi etkenlerin bir araya gelmesi sonucu gerçekleştiğidir. Bu bulgu, ibadet etmenin dindar kadınların statüsünü iyileştirerek onlara bir faillik kazandırabildiğini göstermektedir. Bu bulgu, vi aynı zamanda, toplumsal cinsiyet ve dinin ataerkil toplum tarafından kadınların kontrol ve tahakküm altına alınmasını sürdürmede beraber çalıştıklarını da göstermektedir. Anahtar kelimeler: Sünni-Islami ritüeller, sosyal statü, faillik, dindar kadınlar, Türkiye vii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my advisor Prof. Dr. Ayşe Saktanber for her continuous support, patience, motivation, and enthusiasm.

The aim of Sufism is also to educate self-ego and to preserve the belief within this moral axis. Seyyid Burhaneddin Tirmidhi is an important Sufi who was born at the end of the XII century and lived in the first half of the XIII century. His significance comes from his being the first master of Rumi by teaching him theological and mystical aspect of Islam for a long time. This article examines theological opinions of Seyyid Burhaneddin who has a significant place in the Sufi circles and the Anatolian Islamic culture. Keywords: Seyyid Burhaneddin, Rumi, Sufism, Faith, Tirmidhi, Kayseri I. Introduction Science of Kalam, first of all explores the vahdâniyet among the God's essence and attributes.1 It also determines the principles of Islam about faith and actions through nass (the Qur‟an and the Sunnah) and builds them on the basis of rational method.2 Sufism brings the truths of Islamic Theology toward general issues into very simple level which let also everyone will be satisfied.

    ARIT NEWSLETTER American Research Institute in Turkey Number 55, Spring 2013 LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT President A. Kevin Reinhart Last spring the Council of American Overseas Research Centers (CAORC, based at the Smithson- Immediate Past President ian) kindly provided ARIT the services of a “fund-raising consultant” – Nanette Pyne, an old friend G. Kenneth Sams of mine, as it turns out, from back in my Cairo (ARCE) days. She generously and patiently worked Vice President with Nancy Leinwand and me to teach us the ways of fundraisers. We hope it will bear fruit this year. Nicolas Cahill ARIT was fortunate to receive a grant through the National Endowment for the Humanities, Divi- Secretary sion of Preservation of Access ($40,000) to assist in planning the management of the archives of the Linda Darling American Board of Missions (ABM) that we obtained last year. The American Board was a Protestant Treasurer mission agency founded in 1810 that dispatched missionaries around the world for religious ends Maria deJ. Ellis chiefly, but also to pursue general altruistic labors, including founding schools and medical facilities. Directors Bülent Gültekin Between 1820 when the American Board’s first personnel arrived in Izmir and 1920, at the start of Gottfried Hagen the Turkish Republic, the ABM organization established more than 20 mission stations, 50 boarding Nina J. Köprülü and high schools, and ten colleges in Anatolia and its surrounding areas. Unquestionably, the ABM Kathleen Lynch Beatrice Manz was the most significant American presence in the region during this era. Over the year archivist and Catherine Millard librarian Diane Ryan will twice visit Istanbul to determine the cataloging protocols for the archive, Sylvia Önder and to help set conservation priorities for the materials still in bundles (some still tied with string, Christopher Roosevelt sitting in the climate-controlled vaults of SALT).

    COMMUNAL RELATIONS IN ĐZM ĐR/SMYRNA, 1826-1864: AS SEEN THROUGH THE PRISM OF GREEK-TURKISH RELATIONS by N. Feryal Tansu ğ A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations University of Toronto Copyright by N. Feryal Tansu ğ 2008 ABSTRACT COMMUNAL RELATIONS IN ĐZM ĐR/SMYRNA, 1826-1864: AS SEEN THROUGH THE PRISM OF GREEK-TURKISH RELATIONS by Feryal Tansu ğ Doctor of Philosophy Department of Near and Middle Eastern Civilizations University of Toronto 2008 This dissertation examines the level of social and cultural interaction between the Greek and Turkish communities of Đzmir and the impact of the centralizing Ottoman reforms on the society of Đzmir during the age of the Ottoman modernization. It focuses on the years between 1826 and 1864 that marked a turning point in the administrative history of the Ottoman Empire. Analyzing this subject requires understanding the social-cultural and economic dynamics of Đzmir that played a crucial role in the formation of the social fabric of the city. Ottoman-Turkish archival material and to some extent Greek newspapers of the time are used as primary sources. The sources discussed in this dissertation demonstrate that the central authority attempted to re- integrate Đzmir into its administrative and political structure in accordance with the centralizing or repressive Tanzimat reforms. However, Tanzimat reforms did not disturb the social cohesion of Đzmir, which the city produced over the centuries with its local character and some peculiar dynamics. The evidence also indicates that the Empire did not aim to mold social relations in Đzmir, instead benefited from city’s already existing social-cultural and economic situation, which was well suited to its modernization program.
