Abstract (EN)

In this study, it is tried to make manifest the divinity imagination of the mysticpoet and intellectual Mawlana who has got a important situation in mysticalenvironment and Anatolian culture, and to compare his views with the Theologians?.Proof of divine existence and divine attributes take part in Koran, too; althoughthey are not treated sistematically. Koran attracts attention on witnessed actual eventson proving the existence of God, likewise presents his attributes practically, withoutplunging into details. While Theologians are detailing and systematizing these religioustexts with support of the Greek Philosophy, Muslim Mystics reduce the obtainableknowledge about God to vision and inspiration which exposed by spiritual purity, that isreligious experience. Anyway, this methodical difference constitutes the essence of theseparation among them.There have been a certain remoteness throughout history of Islamic thought tilltoday between Science of Kalam which aims at explaining Islamic believes anddefending it against incongruous opinions rationally and Sufism which tries to provideMuslims carry out an ethical life. Although, there are other reasons, because of theproblem intensified around God conception and style of having knowledge of him, wehave chosen themes of the thesis as Mawlana?s views on proof of God and divineattributes and comparison of them with the Theologians?. Thus, we have obtainedpossibility of understanding the approaches and consequents that reached by bothdisciplines. As a result, we have seen the fact that the both wings are influenced withexterior effects, have slided -not entirely- to a different line from Koranic God thought.Keywords: God, proof of God, divine attributes, Koran, Kalam, Sufism, GreekPhilosophy.
