Woman as the Subject and Object of Culture: Example of Woman Cathechisms
Öz
Catechisms are products of efforts to understand and make religion livable which has divine origins. Therefore, the content of the study contains religious rulings/fatwa related to the behaviors of people in daily life. A fatwa is a product of scientific effort that that is sought with the intent to explain its religious ruling depending on time, place, and conditions of behavior. Fatwa is the result of an understanding and interpretation activity in which the construal is humane and non-binding. Although fatwa is described in this manner, in the community, catechisms which contain fatwa’s are accepted as the main source of judgment and application which takes into consideration the scope of belief, worship and ethic that can be learned. This understanding causes the perceptions of the human mind which transforms or changes according to time, place, and conditions which is determined by culture into absolute judgment.
The effect of culture on religion actualizes by way of understanding. One of the most important examples of this is the perception of women in cultural religiosity. This article deals with woman’s perception in catechisms within the framework of religion-culture and the probable reasons for this perception. In this context, the article specifically written for women, men’s and woman’s perceptions of family which is presented by catechisms is discussed. Also, the article studies the effect of the perception of religiosity on woman’s image and to what extent this perception is suitable or compatible with the Quran in light of human understanding. This impact and perception is discussed under two headings; the existential plane and the social plane. In the existential plane, the creation of woman, her special circumstances and reasons for woman to be classified as fitna, and parallel with this are given judgments; in the social plane, judgments which were created concerning woman actualizing her rights and responsibilities such as getting married, as an individual, divorce, and her testimony is deliberated. Women are positioned based on their social gender roles and not humanly by way of relevant rulings. It is examined with examples that take woman out from the interlocutor of Allah and how it transforms woman into the interlocutor of the perception of cultural religion.
