DIVINE JUSTICE AND THE PROBLEM OF EVIL IN MEHMET AKİF ERSOY’S POEMS
Abstract
One of the controversial issues of philosophy is the problem of evil and divine justice. The problem is very concerned with the relation of God and universe, responsibility of man, ethics and politics. Remarks of a thinker is naturally related to other thoughts of him as well. In Mehmet Akif’s, who is one of the important figures of the movement of Islamism, poems when it is considered from the holistic plan, with the statements reminiscent of şathiye genre of poems, understanding the problem is very difficult. In the particular plan, man as a responsible being in the establishment of justice and order in the world is emphasized. One of the significant thinkers of the last period Mehmet Akif’s explanation, on this complicated and inexplicable question, deserves enquiry in order to understand his thoughts on the order of being, belief principles, politics and ethics.
