Is Millet System a Reality or a Myth? The Legal Position of the Non-Muslim Subjects and Their Religious Leaders in the Ottoman Empire

Öz

The aim of this paper is to clarify the status of non-muslims and their religious leaders in the Ottoman Empire by making a comparison between the muslim and non-muslim officials regarding their authorities given by the state, as well as the nature of the Ottoman administration and its relation to non-muslims, explaining the reality of the millet system. The matter will wholly be taken into consideration from a legal point of view, and the social status of non-muslims is beyond the scope of this paper. Researches made in the last two decades have proved that the explanations about the so-called millet system are not valid. The fact of the matter is that, the Ottomans administered their non-muslim subjects under a system named tax-farming/iltizam. According to this system, the non-muslim subjects were not autonomous and they did not have legal autonomy in the Ottoman Empire. On the contrary, the Ottoman administration controlled and regulated the non-muslims' social and legal matters in accordance with Islamic Law.
