2021, KONYA VAKIFLARI

Abstract

One of the institutions of Turkish history is waqf. They served a function in the social, cultural and economic life of Turkish history and they have also contributed to the religious, judicial and social aspects of life. If one man donates some or all of his moveable and real properties in the name of Allah for requirements of people, that is called as waqf in Islam. The waqf institution has carried out its its existence from past to present under various names as it contributes to the religious, social, economic, judicial and cultural aspects of human life. The conception of helping and solidarity is existed on the basis of waqf. In this study, 565 waqfs are analyzed based on the sources of archival records of General Directorate of Foundations of Turkey, Konya Şer'iye registry and the catalogue of waqfs in the Ottoman Archives at the Turkish Presidency. We have underlined the following subjects in our study: the characteristics and social status of the founders of these waqfs, the current status of the moveable and real properties that were donated, the conditions of the waqfs, their managers and their contributions for religious and social life.
