Özet:

 Natural disasters have consistently ranked among the most significant factors directly influencing societies throughout history. These include pandemics such as the plague and leprosy, terrestrial disasters like earthquakes, and atmospheric phenomena such as floods and storms. This study examines the Jerusalem earthquake of 952 AH  1546 CE, which occurred during the Ottoman era. During this period, Jerusalem experienced numerous natural disasters, including earthquakes of varying frequency and intensity across centuries. Among these, the earthquake addressed in this study is particularly noteworthy. The impetus for this research stems from the profound significance of this event for Jerusalem in particular and the surrounding region more broadly, as its consequences left a lasting impact on the societal and architectural realities of the time. The scarcity of historical sources documenting this earthquake further underscores the need to highlight its importance. Notably, records of this earthquake are preserved in the archives of the Jerusalem Sharia Court This study conducted a thorough survey of these records, extracting documents that directly or indirectly referenced the earthquake and its repercussions. The findings reveal a wealth of data that collectively illustrate the extensive impact of this event on life in Jerusalem, providing sufficient material for a detailed scholarly investigation.

 Doğal afetler, tarih boyunca toplumları doğrudan etkileyen en önemli faktörler arasında yer almıştır. Bunlar arasında veba ve cüzzam gibi salgın hastalıklar, depremler gibi yer kabuğu kaynaklı felaketler ve sel, fırtına gibi atmosferik olaylar sayılabilir. Bu çalışma, Osmanlı döneminde meydana gelen 952 Hicri  1546 Miladi yılındaki Kudüs depremini incelemektedir. Kudüs, bu dönemde yüzyıllar boyunca farklı şiddet ve sıklıkta pek çok doğal afet yaşamıştır. Bunlar arasında, bu çalışmada ele alınan deprem özellikle dikkat çekicidir. Bu araştırmanın temel motivasyonu, söz konusu depremin özellikle Kudüs ve genel olarak çevre bölgeler için taşıdığı büyük önemdir; zira bu olayın sonuçları, dönemin toplumsal ve mimari gerçekliği üzerinde kalıcı izler bırakmıştır. Ayrıca, bu depremi kayıt altına alan tarihî belgelerin azlığı, olayın önemini vurgulamayı daha da gerekli kılmaktadır. Özellikle, Kudüs Şeriyye Mahkemesi arşivlerinde bu depreme dair kayıtlar muhafaza edilmiştir. Bu çalışmada, söz konusu kayıtlar detaylı bir şekilde taranmış, deprem ve etkilerine doğrudan veya dolaylı olarak atıf yapan belgeler derlenmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular, bu olayın Kudüsteki yaşam üzerindeki geniş kapsamlı etkisini ortaya koyan zengin veriler sunmakta ve akademik bir inceleme için yeterli malzeme sağlamaktadır.
