Mâtürîdî Düşüncede İbadetlerin Hikmetleri.

Wisdom, which is one of the basic concepts in the field of thought and science in the Islamic tradition and is discussed in the context of knowing the truth of things and placing them in their place in accordance with their own value, is present in all divine acts. In this regard, it is unthinkable that God's actions are far from wisdom. However, it is possible that some wisdom remains far from human comprehension. This situation requires making an effort to understand it, not to deny it. The basic approach on this issue is that everything created in the universe is for a purpose and nothing is created in vain. Māturīdī, one of the pioneers of Ahl al-Sunnah, attached special importance to the issue of wisdom in creation in his works. This special situation for wisdom is also necessary for divine commands. Because, according to Māturīdī, in the context of Allah being wise in all His divine acts in accordance with His name "Wise", all the commands He commands have more than one wisdom. In this study, in which we deal with the issue of wisdom in line with Māturīdī's approaches, his approaches to the wisdom of worship are discussed in the axis of the basic principles he created in terms of understanding and interpreting wisdom. According to Māturīdī, the wisdom in both creation and divine commands, especially in worship, is a manifestation of monotheism and is a situation that requires gratitude. Because the existing commandments such as prayer, fasting, pilgrimage and alms, which are summarized as the conditions of Islam, have more than one wisdom. In this case, the issues related to the wisdom of worship in general, in terms of the necessity of thanking Allah, are also conducive to the upbringing, education and evolution of people. This will lead to the improvement of both individual and social life in this world and the hereafter. According to the author, Allah Almighty has wisdom in every command and prohibition, and there is more than one wisdom in ordering worship. The basic approach that emerged here was to criticize the approaches of schools such as Muʿtazila. For this reason, this study also includes an evaluation of schools with different understandings of wisdom in line with Māturīdī's understanding. While revealing this, the method of this study was to identify and convey Māturīdī's views on the subject in his works. While creating his own method on the subject, Māturīdī created a method in line with a textcentered rational approach, by creating a method that is not completely reduced to reason in line with the relationship between reason and narration, but does not adopt a literal form of presentation without passing the narration through the filter of reason.
