Özet:

 Ahmad Shirānī 1879-1942, one of the late Ottoman scholars and one of the important writers of the constitutional monarchy press, is a person who expressed his scientific, political and religious views in various magazines of his period. Among the issues on which he expressed his opinion in the religious field are the issues of faith, isbāt al-wājib and divine attributes. Among the issues he touches upon are the position of people in terms of faith, the place of deeds in relation to faith, apostasy under threat, the collective and detailed faith, investigative and imitative faith, the period of responsibility for faith, and whether it is permissible to spread faith through coercion. On the subject of Isbāt al-wājib, he touched upon issues such as the justification of Allahs existence through the need for Him, the evidence that the universe contains in this regard, the progress made by science and science in this direction, the impossibility of substituting nature for Him, the proof of disposition and the proof of general acceptance. In the subject of divine attributes, he tried to explain the essential and positive attributes of Allah in a very short style that adopted everyday language instead of using technical terms. Shirānī touches upon the subjects of faith and of Isbāt al-wājib in a scattered manner, mostly through references he makes on the subject in his various articles. He dealt with the issue of divine attributes independently, mainly in a series of articles titled İlmihal Dersleri. He developed a language according to the position of his interlocutors in explaining the relevant issues. In this context, he generally addressed his readers who did not have sufficient scientific knowledge in a simple and easy way, and those with a relatively high intellectual level, often with an intermediate level, and sometimes with a completely technical language and style. In the İlmihal Dersleri series of articles, he chose a simple language because he determined his addressees as the public and children in general. In his other writings, he followed a more scientific style. In this article, the ideas put forward by Ahmad Shīrānī within the framework of the above-mentioned subjects will be discussed.

 Son dönem Osmanlı ilim adamlarından, meşrutiyet matbuatının önemli kalemlerinden biri olan Ahmed Şîrânî 1879-1942, ilmî, siyasî ve dinî görüşlerini döneminin muhtelif dergilerinde ortaya koymuş bir şahsiyettir. Onun dinî sahada fikir beyan ettiği meseleler arasında, iman, isbât-ı vâcib ve ilâhî sıfatlar konuları da yer almaktadır. İmanla ilgili değindiği konular arasında insanların iman bakımından konumları, iman ile ilişkisi açısından amelin yeri, tehdit altında imandan dönme, icmalî ve tafsilî iman, tahkikî ve taklidî iman, imanla sorumlu olma dönemi ve imanı baskıyla yaymanın câiz olup olmadığı gibi meseleler bulunmaktadır. İsbât-ı vâcib konusunda ise Allahın varlığının, Ona duyulan ihtiyaç üzerinden temellendirilmesi, kâinatın bu meyanda barındırdığı kanıtlar, bilim ve fennin bu yönde kaydettiği aşamalar, tabiatın Onun yerine geçirilmesinin imkânsızlığı, fıtrat ve kabûl-i âmme delili gibi meselelere temas etmiştir. İlâhî sıfatlar bahsinde ise Allahın tenzîhîselbî ve sübûtî sıfatlarını oldukça kısa, ıstılahî tabirler kullanmak yerine gündelik dili benimseyen bir üslûp içerisinde açıklamaya çalışmıştır. Şîrânî, iman ve isbât-ı vâcib konularına daha çok muhtelif makalelerinde konuyla ilgili yaptığı göndermeler aracılığıyla dağınık surette değinmektedir. İlâhî sıfatlar meselesine ise ağırlıklı olarak İlmihal Dersleri başlıklı bir yazı dizisinin içerisinde müstakil şekilde temas etmiştir. İlgili meselelerin izahında muhataplarının konumuna göre bir dil geliştirmiştir. Bu bağlamda genel anlamda yeterli ilmî düzeyi bulunmayan okurlarına sade ve kolay, görece entelektüel seviyesi yüksek olanlara ise çoğu kez orta düzey, bazen de tamamen teknik bir dil ve üslûp ile hitap etmiştir. İlmihal Dersleri yazı dizisinde muhataplarını genel anlamda halk ve çocuklar olarak belirlediği için basit bir dil tercih etmiştir. Diğer yazılarında ise daha ilmî bir üslûp takip etmiştir. Bu makalede, Ahmed Şîrânînin adı geçen konular çerçevesinde ortaya koyduğu fikirleri ele alınacaktır.
