Özet:

 It is important to analyze the historical and contemporary religious movements inspired by the Fethullahist Terrorist Organization FETÖ, which started out as a seemingly religious organization about fifty years ago and turned into a terrorist organization on July 15, and to determine its similar methods, in terms of the strategy of struggle and future projection. As a result of the scans made from the open sources that can be reached, no comprehensive study could be found that systematically addresses the similarities between organizations on this subject under multiple headings. With the data obtained from multiple open sources, the basic descriptive features of FETO were determined under forty-four headings, three of which were related to its history and 40 were related to its organizational structure. Within the framework of these determined features, it was aimed to systematically analyze and discuss the aspects of FETÖ, which are similar to the Shiite Assassins and Sunni Qadianis, in a tabular form. Being the first comprehensive and systematic evaluation on this subject constitutes the strength of the study. While the study showed similarities with FETOs Shiite-Nizari Assassins in thirty of the forty sub-headings, it showed similarity with Sunni-Hanefi Qadianis in twenty-eight sub-headings. This situation made us think that two completely different sectarian currents such as Shiite and Sunni did not differ in being the source of FETO, only some sub-titles were more dominant in an organization. Although they are in different geographical and socio-cultural environments, it is important to evaluate the current results of a fifty-year-old FETO organization showing such similarities with a thousand-year-old Shiite Assassins and one hundred- and fifty-year old Sunni Qadianis.

 Yaklaşık elli yıl kadar önce görünürde dinî bir yapılanma olarak yola çıkıp 15 Temmuzda terör örgütüne dönüşen Fethullahçı Terör Örgütü FETÖnün esinlendiği tarihî ve çağdaş dinî hareketlerin iyi analiz edilmesi ve benzeşen yöntemlerinin belirlenmesi mücadele stratejisi ve gelecek projeksiyonu açısından önem arz etmektedir. Ulaşılabilen açık kaynaklardan yapılan taramalar neticesinde bu konu ile ilgili örgütler arası benzerlikleri çoklu başlıklar altında sistematik olarak ele alan kapsamlı bir çalışmaya rastlanılamamıştır. Çoklu açık kaynaklardan elde edilen verilerle üçü kuruluş tarihçesi, kırkı da örgütsel yapısı ile ilgili olmak üzere toplamda kırk dört başlık altında FETÖnün temel tanımlayıcı özellikleri belirlendi. Belirlenen bu özellikler çerçevesinde FETÖnün uluslararası iki örgüt olan Şii Haşhaşiler ve Sünni Kadiyaniler ile benzerlik gösteren yönlerinin tablo hâlinde sistematik olarak analiz edilmesi ve tartışılması amaçlandı. Bu konu üzerine yapılan ilk kapsamlı ve sistematik bir değerlendirme olması çalışmanın güçlü yönünü oluşturmaktadır. Çalışma, FETÖnün Şii-Nizari Haşhaşilerle kırk alt başlığın otuzunda benzerlik gösterirken Sünni-Hanefi Kadiyaniler ile de yirmi sekiz alt başlıkta benzerlik gösterdiğini saptamıştır. Bu durum Şii ve Sünni gibi tamamen farklı iki mezhepsel akımın FETÖye kaynaklık etmede farklılık göstermediğini sadece bazı alt başlıkların bir örgütte daha baskın olduğunu düşündürmüştür. Farklı coğrafya ve sosyokültürel ortamlarda olmalarına rağmen elli yıllık bir FETÖ örgütünün, bin yıllık Şii Haşhaşilerle ve yüz elli yıllık Sünni Kadiyanilerle böylesine benzerlik göstermesinin güncel sonuçlarının iyi değerlendirilmesi önem arz etmektedir.
