Abstract (EN)

Ebû Mansûr el-Mâturîdî is one of the important thinkers of the Turkish and Islamic world, who grew up in the Samarkand basin. Mâturîdî, who systematized Imam-i A'zam Abu Hanîfe's views on faith, is the founder of the "Maturidism" sect named after him in the field of faith. Wisdom is the most basic concept in his works called Te'vîlatü'l-Kur'an and Kitâbü't-Tawhid. He used wisdom as the purpose and truth of everything and argued that nothing in the world was created without a purpose and in vain. According to him, none of the divine acts are outside of wisdom. Because the opposite of wisdom is debauchery, ignorance and ignorance. Kalam scholars also explained wisdom as "purpose, justice, reason, knowledge"; They stated that Allah is Wise, His actions are also wise and that oppression or mischief cannot be in question in any of his actions. Maturidi's world of thought is based on man's knowing Allah and adding meaning to his life through wisdom, based on the fact that the Creator created every creature he created in the world with wisdom. His understanding of wisdom constitutes an epistemological and ethical structure. In this structure, reason is complementary to revelation, not rival. Man learns the divine wisdom and responsibility with the unity of reason and revelation. Maturidi has based many issues related to creation and divine acts such as destiny-accident, goodness and evil (husun-kubuh), the hereafter, good and evil, order and prohibition, prophecy, gratitude for blessing, with his understanding of wisdom. The wisdom of divine actions is seen as either grace or justice. Therefore, wisdom does not mean limiting divine will and power. Wisdom in Maturidi is the effort to ground both the will and power of God and the freedom of man. In the Ash'ariyya sect, the divine will and power take the place of the divine wisdom; In the Mu'tazila, wisdom is not a gift from the Creator, but a necessity for the Creator. Keywords: Al-Mâturîdî, Wisdom, Reason, Revelation, Purpose, Ethics.
