Yüksek Din Öğretiminde Çok Kültürlü ve Uluslararası Bir Model: Kudüs Selâhaddin Eyyûbî Külliye-i İslâmiyesi.

This study discusses Selahaddîn Eyyubi Kulliye-i İslamiyesi, which was established in Jerusalem in 1915 as a provincial branch of the Daru'l-hilafeti'laliyye Madrasa and was an original and international madrasah model with its own organizational structure and curriculum, in the scope of reform actions started in madrasas during the Second Constitutional Era. The purpose of the establishment, administrative structure, educational philosophy, and all other characteristic features of the Kulliye, which was opened considering local needs and the integrity of center and provinces, will be evaluated as a whole. The most outstanding feature of Kulliye was that its admissions spanned the farthest geographical zone reached by the Ottoman Empire as well as the hinterland, where Muslims lived. In spite of the extraordinary circumstances of the era, the Kulliye, which was designed to address Islamic geography of a century ago in Jerusalem, is a role model for multinational Higher Religious Teaching Institutions. In this respect, it became an area where the most concrete and practical application of the Islamic Union's politics was projected. In addition to the difference of central-provincial structuring in Ottoman madrasas, the fact that the provincial organization differed in terms of curriculum, syllabus, and student resources is a concrete indication that local needs were taken into account, and that local opportunities were exploited. In this article, the administrative structure, education, and training activities of Selahaddin Eyyubi Kulliye-i Islamiyesi, which is one of the most significant landmarks of Ottoman education history, are discussed based on primary sources--especially archive documents--with the aim to contribute to religious education approaches.
