Although the autonomous positions of waqf, which is one of the important features of decentralization, weakened as a result of the centralization policies that began to be implemented after Tanzimat, the awqaf continued to maintain their importance in the social and economic life of the society. In this period, there are many awqaf in Siverek, mainly belonging to mosques and other place of worship owned by Muslims and non-Muslims and endowed for both charitable purposes and filial conditions. This study asserts that the awqaf in Siverek continued to maintain their roles in the society considering their diversity and functionality even in the time when decentralization policies were implemented. This article attempts to reveal the problems of the awqaf in Siverek, which gave clues to the social mentality of the post-Tanzimat era, on the basis of the Sherʻiyye registers.
Tanzimat sonrasında uygulanmaya başlanan merkezileşme politikaları
sonucunda, adem-i merkeziyetin önemli unsurlarından olan vakıfların özerk
konumları zayıflasa da, vakıflar toplumun sosyal ve iktisadi hayatındaki
önemlerini korumaya devam etmişlerdir. Bu
dönemde Siverek’te başta camiler ve diğer ibadet kurumlarına ait olmak üzere
hem hayır cihetine hem de evlada şart kılınmış Müslümanlara ve gayrimüslimlere
ait birçok vakıf vardır. Bu çalışma merkeziyetçi politikaların uygulandığı
dönemde de Siverek’teki vakıfların çeşitliliği ve işlevselliğinden hareketle toplumdaki
rollerinin devam ettiğini iddia etmektedir. Bu makale Siverek’te Tanzimat
sonrası dönemin sosyal zihniyetinin ipuçlarını veren vakıfların mahkemelere
yansıyan problemlerini Şeri’yye sicillerini temel alarak ortaya koymayı
denemektedir.
