Wisdom and The Wisdom of Worships in Mâturîdî Thought.

Wisdom, which is one of the basic concepts in the field of thought and science in the Islamic tradition, has the meaning of the purpose of creation and the truth of everything and it is considered as the duty of every rational person to understand the wisdom of the creatures and to know the Creator and to believe in Him. The wisdom, which is the subject of knowing the truth of things and putting it in its proper place in accordance with its own value, is present in all divine deeds and it is unthinkable that God's deeds are far from wisdom. Everything that is created in the world is for wisdom and nothing has been created in vain. In the context of God's being wise in all his divine acts in accordance with the attribute of "the Judge", all the prayers He ordered are surrounded by various wisdoms. Mind, on the other hand, has an important place in grasping the wisdom of everything that has been created, but can sometimes be incapacitated. This issue also constitutes the basis of the wisdom issue dealt with in the Mâturîdî thought system. The issue of wisdom is also critical for understanding Mâturîdî’s views on God's actions and human moral responsibility. In this study, first of all, the meaning and analysis of the concept of wisdom is emphasized, then the basic principles of Mâturîdî’s understanding of wisdom and the effects of this understanding on human moral and religious life are revealed, and the issues related to the wisdom of worship in general in terms of the necessity of gratitude to Allah are discussed and analyzed within the framework of Mâturîdî’s views.

Abstract

Wisdom, which is one of the basic concepts in the field of thought and science in the Islamic tradition, has the meaning of the purpose of creation and the truth of everything and it is considered as the duty of every rational person to understand the wisdom of the creatures and to know the Creator and to believe in Him. The wisdom, which is the subject of knowing the truth of things and putting it in its proper place in accordance with its own value, is present in all divine deeds and it is unthinkable that God's deeds are far from wisdom. Everything that is created in the world is for wisdom and nothing has been created in vain. In the context of God's being wise in all his divine acts in accordance with the attribute of "the Judge", all the prayers He ordered are surrounded by various wisdoms. Mind, on the other hand, has an important place in grasping the wisdom of everything that has been created, but can sometimes be incapacitated. This issue also constitutes the basis of the wisdom issue dealt with in the Mâturîdî thought system. The issue of wisdom is also critical for understanding Mâturîdî’s views on God's actions and human moral responsibility. In this study, first of all, the meaning and analysis of the concept of wisdom is emphasized, then the basic principles of Mâturîdî’s understanding of wisdom and the effects of this understanding on human moral and religious life are revealed, and the issues related to the wisdom of worship in general in terms of the necessity of gratitude to Allah are discussed and analyzed within the framework of Mâturîdî’s views.
