Özet:

 Hanafī scholars resorted to various methods such as abrogation naskh, specification takhṣīṣ, preference, tarjīh interpretation taʾwīl in order to eliminate the incompatibility between the views of the founding authorities of the madhab ashāb and the nass verses and hadiths. According to the famous narration attributed to Abul-Hasan al-Karkhī d. 340952, one of the Iraqī Hanafī scholars, it is thought that the nass contradicting the views of the madhhab scholars are abrogated, or that other evidence is preferred over them, but it is more appropriate to reconcile and interpret them. However, this approach adopted by the Hanafīs has brought some criticism and accusations that the views of the madhab scholars are prioritized over the nass or that these were ignored in the face of their views. On the other hand, the discourse that the views of the madhab scholars should be preferred in case of incompatibility between the views of theirs and the nass, seems problematic and in need of explanation at first glance. Due to the reason mentioned, these statements, which reveal the general attitude of Hanafīs, need to be explained theoretically. In this study, firstly, the Hanafīs justifications for adopting this approach are discussed, and then it is seen that this does not mean the nass is ignored or the views of the jurists are prioritized as it is claimed.

 Hanefî âlimleri, mezhebin kurucu otoritelerine mezhep ashâbı ait görüşler ile nasların çatışması durumunda oluşan uyumsuzluğu gidermek için nesih, tahsis, tercih ve tevil gibi çeşitli yöntemlere başvurmuşlardır. Irak Hanefî meşâyihinden Ebül-Hasen el-Kerhîye ö. 340952 nispet edilen meşhur rivayete göre, mezhep ashâbının görüşlerine aykırı olan nasların neshedildiği veya başka bir delilin bunlara tercih edildiği ihtimali düşünülmekle birlikte aralarının uzlaştırılarak tevil edilmesinin daha uygun olduğu ifade edilir. Ancak Hanefîlerin benimsediği bu yaklaşım, mezhep ashâbına ait görüşlerin naslara öncelendiği şeklinde birtakım eleştiri ve ithamları beraberinde getirmiştir. Zira mezhep görüşü ile nasların uyumsuzluğu durumunda mezhep ashâbının görüşlerinin tercih edilmesi gerektiği söylemi, ilk bakışta sorunlu ve açıklanması gereken bir durum olarak görünmektedir. Zikredilen gerekçe sebebiyle Hanefîlerin genel tavrını ortaya koyan bu ifadelerin teorik olarak izah edilmesi gerekmektedir. Bu çalışmada Hanefîlerin söz konusu yaklaşımı benimsemelerindeki gerekçeleri ele alınmış, sonrasında da bunun iddia edildiği gibi nasların göz ardı edilmesi ya da fakihlerin görüşlerinin öncelikli olduğu anlamına gelmediği görülmüştür.
