Özet:

 Undoubtedly, in the modern world, the doctrine of Constitutionalism has two fundamental functions: limiting political power and guaranteeing human rights. On the other hand, it is possible to say that limiting the power will ultimately have positive effects on human rights. The Charter of Medina is one of the most important documents in Islamic history. It is a document accepted to ensure unity, peace, and justice among people of different religions, cultures, and races living in the city after Prophet of Islam Muhammad migrated to Medina. The Constitution regulates the functioning of the state and the distribution of powers. The Charter of Medina contains rules regarding the administrative, judicial, and military functioning of the city-state. In the Charter of Medina, the basic rights of the members of the city-state such as life, property, religion, and conscience were requested to be respected. In addition, people from different religions and cultures were allowed to live according to their own traditions. In the Charter of Medina, it is seen that the members of the city-state mutually transferred some of their rights to each other and to the Prophet. It is even claimed that the Charter of Medina is the first known written Constitution in history. In this study, the Constitutional nature of the Charter of Medina will be discussed in the context of Constitutional law.

 Modern dünyada Anayasalcılık düşüncesinin siyasi iktidarın sınırlandırılması ve insan haklarının güvence altına alınması şeklinde iki temel işlevinin bulunduğunda herhangi bir şüphe yoktur. Buna karşın iktidarın sınırlandırılmasının netice bakımından insan haklarına olumlu etkilerinin olacağını da söylemek mümkündür. Medine Vesikası, İslam tarihinin en önemli belgelerinden biri olma özelliğine sahiptir. İslam dininin peygamberi Hz. Muhammedin Medineye hicret ettikten sonra, şehirde yaşayan farklı din, kültür ve ırktan insanlar arasında birlik, barış ve adaletin sağlanması için kabul edilen bir vesikadır. Anayasa, devletin işleyişini ve yetki dağılımını düzenlemektedir. Medine Vesikasında, şehir devletinin idari, yargısal ve askeri işleyişine dair kurallar yer almaktadır. Medine Vesikasında, şehir devletinin üyelerinin can, mal, din, vicdan gibi temel haklarına saygı gösterilmesi istenmiştir. Ayrıca farklı din ve kültürlere mensup insanların kendi geleneklerine göre yaşamalarına izin verilmiştir. Medine Vesikasında da şehir devletinin üyelerinin birbirleriyle ve Peygamber ile karşılıklı olarak bazı haklarını devrettikleri görülmektedir. Medine Vesikasının tarihte bilinen ilk yazılı Anayasa olduğu dahi ileri sürülmektedir. Bu çalışmada Anayasa hukuku bağlamında Medine Vesikasının Anayasal niteliği ele alınacaktır.
