Political Thought in Maturidi

Abstract

The aim of this article is to determine Ebû Mansûr el-Mâtürîdî’s political thinking. Although this issue is not included at the theoretical level in the Qur’an, concepts such as council, efficiency, justice and great command are various verses of political terms. Examining Mâtürîdî’s interpretations of the verses mentioned in the Te’vîlâtü’l-Kur’ân will help us to understand his way of thinking. His management philosophy and principles of governance are based on mental foundations while carrying o religious character. In addition, historical examples and sociological approaches are the factors that determine his opinion on this subject. In Mâtürîdî, the characteristics of the government ruler are related to the foundations of political administration. Justice, grace and counceling are the essential parts of it. Contrary to the idea of Shia Imamate the view that the state ruler is not absolute and innocent indicates that Mâtürîdî knows and opposes Shia’s opinion. Mâtürîdî’s political opinion, which has not ignored the rumors on the issue of Imamate, seems to be based on transplantation and reason. In this article, Mâtürîdî’s interpretations of political concepts in Te’vîlâtü’l-Kur’ân will be analyzed by source examination method.
