Osmanlı İnanç Politikasi Üzerine Bir Değerlendirme
Abstract
The issue of the acknoll(ledgement and application of the religious
beliefs and liberties for all take places among currently most
discussed the topics. The Western scholars have always been
attracted to the juridical an social statues of non~Muslims living in
Muslim countries in the History. Today, it became a necessity in the
World that people with different faiths live together with harmony
especially because of the effect of the globalization. Anatolia has been
an enriching cultural and histarical centre in which different faith and
cultures lived together for centuries. It involved many faith and
cultures in the form of "nation" in its body in the Ottoman time. For
centuries, Turks ruled Muslims and non-Muslims in an atmesphere of
togetherness and mutual trust and respect. Ottoman dynasty did not
attempt to assimiiate non-Muslims in the melting pot of Muslims. It
assigned certain rights to non-Muslims as the requirement of the faith
it cherished. The atmesphere of liberty of thought and the tolerance
shown to faiths since the time of Seljuks can be interpreted as an
indication that Muslim Turks had strong self-confidence and an
unshakable belief and spirituality. In order to shed light into today's
. problems, it is important for us and others to know how this regime
became enable to accomplish these. This paper surveys the policy of
faith by which Ottoman dynasty ruled a wide geography and different
nations with various faith in peace during 6 century.
