Abstract

Karrâmiyya, about which there are insufficient studies in Islamic intellectual history, appears at the end of h. 3rd century and gains a lot of followers in Khorasan and Transoxiana regions. In the beginning, Karrâmiyya, which emerged in Murji’ah, turns into a sect that has a specific theology and fıqh. However, the sect could not reach the present day despite its strength in the region, and the pioneering scholars’ works, notably Muhammed b. Karrâm. For this reason, the existing data about Karrâmiyya consists of opponents’ perception of Karrâmiyya in their resources. Our aim in this paper is to illuminate the perception of Karrâmiyya that dominates Mâturîdî recources and the background of this perception
