Özet:

 Some limitations may be imposed on property rights in Islamic law. One of the limitations on the disposition of private property relates to spaces where women move freely in the house without wearing the scarf hijāb, which can be seen from the outside. This issue, which was brought up in classical sources of Islamic law as well as in Ottoman fatwā collections, draws attention as an important complaint in the sharʿiyyah records. However, despite its significance, there is a noticeable scarcity of independent studies on the subject. To address this gap, this article aims to examine the visibility of womens domestic private spaces maqarr al-niswān from the outside in the context of restrictions on private property. The study delves into the powers of disposition of peoples private property and examines the corresponding changes in the legal system. It aims to determine whether dispositions that violate privacy can be restricted by law while also analyzing how this matter is portrayed in the fatwā collections and how it was implemented in Ottoman practice based on the sharʿiyyah records. The findings obtained contribute to a better understanding of the limitations on private property in Islamic law and offer insights into the historical context and application of such restrictions.

 İslam hukukunda mülkiyet hakkına birtakım sınırlamalar getirilebilmektedir. Özel mülkiyetteki tasarruflara sınırlama getiren sebeplerinden birisi de kadınların ev içerisinde tesettüre girmeden rahatça hareket ettikleri mekânların dışarıdan görülmesidir. İslam hukukunun klasik kaynaklarının yanı sıra Osmanlı fetvâ mecmualarında da gündeme getirilen bu mesele, şeriyye sicillerinde önemli bir şikâyet konusu olarak dikkatleri çekmektedir. Ancak önemine rağmen konuyla ilgili müstakil ve nitelikli çalışmalar yapılmamıştır. Bu makale, söz konusu eksikliği gidermek için özel mülkiyete getirilen sınırlamalar bağlamında kadınlara ait ev içi özel mekânların makarr-ı nisvân dışarıdan görülmesini incelemeyi hedeflemektedir. Çalışma, insanların özel mülkündeki tasarruf yetkilerini araştırmakta ve konuyla ilgili hukuktaki değişimi analiz etmektedir. Mahremiyeti ihlal eden tasarrufların kanun yoluyla sınırlandırılıp sınırlandırılamayacağını tespit etmeyi amaçlayan çalışma, aynı zamanda bu konunun fetvâ mecmualarında nasıl tasvir edildiğini ve şeriyye sicillerinden hareketle Osmanlı uygulamasında nasıl hayata geçirildiğini tahlil etmektedir. Elde edilen bulgular, İslam hukukunda özel mülkiyete getirilen sınırlamaların daha iyi anlaşılmasına katkı sağlamakta ve bu tür kısıtlamaların tarihsel bağlamı ve uygulaması hakkında fikir vermektedir.
